Town and Country Magazine showing some awesome custom bodied cars for 1931.

The 1976 Eldorado was supposed to be the "Last of the Convertibles" and was the first instant collectible car I can remember.  Prices were going for double retail and for the next  10 years these cars commanded a huge premium until Detroit started building convertibles again.   The next instant collectible I remember was the 78 Corvette pace car.  90% of the instant collectible cars would end up losing their value.  The one exception being the Ford GT.

The snow cruiser was cool. Too bad it was a bad design. Here is a video of it in action on pavement:

The Playboy was a very cool small automobile that was built by the Playboy Motor Car Corporation of Buffalo, New York between 1946 and 1949.   A really neat feature was the fully disappearing top.   It was powered by a 4 cylinder 48 horsepower engine.  This photo was taken in Hershey Pennsylvania at the famous Hershey swap meet.

A 1931 Model J Duesenberg passing modern traffic on a highway. With 265 factory horsepower and optional rear end ratios up to 3.79 to 1 the Model J was very fast.

The very cool 1948 Davis 3 wheeler. Built or a very limited amount of time before the company went under. Check out this video for more info.
