train68 ◊ 2023-06-17 22:09	I'm only guessing.
Lateef ◊ 2023-06-17 22:21	Then end your comment with a question mark. Otherwise it could be mistaken for an identification.

I would've listed it (correctly, as it turns out) as a "Chrysler New Yorker" based on the script but the photos of a contemporary New Yorker on the Wiki that I used for comparison didn't match what we had (dual headlights rather than single), and I wound up guessing it was some sort of a A or B-Body rather than a Mopar. -- Last edit: 2023-06-18 06:38:36
