This Cord has been updated using Oldsmobile Toronado-type CV drive systems developed by Richardson for durability. The convertible top is tan cloth with a correct glass prism rear window. Even the correct AM radio is included. This Cord was a first-place winner at a CCCA national meet. From the Tammy Allen Collection.
