Dad 36’ rumble coupe, plate is Vermont 1945. I couldn’t find any side views of the car in a shoebox full of b&w photos, so I don’t know if it was a 3 or 5 window. I know I was about a year old when it was forced off a Vermont mountain road and rolled down a hill, no serious injuries occurred...

Chris, so sad to hear about Cheryl’s passing, take your time to grieve and remember the good times you enjoyed together.
