Wow, a V12 in 1941. The last of the pre-war flings?

What’s the red one?

It looks like a 1962 Chrysler 300.

Sorry, I've been going through a tough time lately.

A lot of people don't realize more cylinders is not for more power, it is for luxury.
The more cylinders, the smoother the engine runs.

There is or was a V12 Jaguar in Kansas City that I eye balled for years but never bought.

The red on is a 1936 Plymouth Business Coupe.

Exactly.

What a sudden change due to events though - from building V12s to not building cars at all.

Mid to late 50s something? I've never seen one, but I kind of like it.

Trick question, I wouldn't have gotten it.

It's a REN-oh. 1955 Renault Juvaquatre Dauphinoise.

I will name him PUP.
