This car only seen briefly as part of a continuity error. The characters are seen jumping into two police cars one a Wolseley /vehicle_28488-Wolseley-12-48-1936.html the other seen here with a one-piece windscreen... Immediately after the car turns into the Ford (with a split windscreen) and only the Wolseley is seen at the end of the chase. -- Last edit: 2013-11-26 13:16:04

Grill was a separate cast pot metal piece in 37'. 38' Standard, DeLuxe and 39' Standard grills were stamped painted sheet metal. 38' DeLuxe and 39' Standard had a dip at the top of the grill making a heart shape.
