Apparently this car was parked next to the Beverly Wilshire Hotel on Rodeo Drive and across the street from the W. & J. Sloane furniture store, but that’s not really the point. The point is: this 1936 or ’37 Cord is a thing of beauty and a work of art. If I ever get to ride a time machine, I’m going directly to the Cord showroom that was on Wilshire Blvd near the Ambassador Hotel and get me one of these dream machines.
