Another taxicab is seen used as a ladder, earlier: ![[Image: dassin46letter24.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/17160/dassin46letter24.jpg) ![[Image: dassin46letter25.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/17160/dassin46letter25.jpg) ![[Image: dassin46letter26.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/17160/dassin46letter26.jpg) ![[Image: dassin46letter27.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/17160/dassin46letter27.jpg) 00:35:40 and following.Is the main a De Soto?

The one behind it is for sure a 1941 DeSoto, and the 'ladder' may be also. But the main car cannot be a '41 DeSoto because those had suicide rear doors. Still searching. |

Okay, I think the subject car is a 1942 Pontiac Streamliner. The fastback body is typical of a GM product. The 4-door body, small stone guards, front fender fared into the front door, and strip of trim in line with the doorhandles all seem to match '42 Pontiac best. |
