Jay, this looks like the same car. Northshore Imports are in Lake Bluff, IL as well.

They've got some nice cars on that site, Steve, but with nice prices also!

The French Bikini:
Due to the popularity of the original bikini, the French had to come up with a new version which they could proudly call their own. Unfortunately, completely sane scientists were involved to create the french bikini, which was to be made entirely of cheese.

The British Bikini:
The British bikini wasn't a great hit in England as the colour of Cheddar blended in with the pasty-white colour of British female skin.

The Swiss Bikini---- The winner !!
On the contrary, the Swiss bikini became almost as popular as the French bikini, because of the use of Swiss cheese... you see it's the " see-through holes".

Oh, well....it's all in good fun!

Now, let's see if you can add another quote to that long line!

Nope....the computer gods don't allow more than 4 quotes deep! laugh

I went to see the car. It is very nice. According to the info page on the window, it was manufactured in the last weeks of Traction production. It looks black (to me) in the internet pictures but it is actually a dark slate blue.

I didn't look too closely as there were several other shiny objects that stole my attention including an Aston Martin DB4, 60 TR3A, 67 Morris Minor coupe, and a 57 Ford Cabover Thames Panel van.

I would have driven away in the DB4 but I was 19,899,500 pennies short of the asking price! frown

The info would be correct then. It would indeed have been right at the tail-end of production, as the DS came out in 1957......
