The 34 Ford was my third car... Bought it late in my sophomore year (1948-1949) of HS for about $50...

Second car, as a freshman in HS (1946-1947), was a 35 Ford I got in a swap for my first car (1927 Duesenberg converted to a farm truck) that I was given in 1944 when I was 11...

As a junior (1949-1950) swapped both of them for a 35 Plymouth (my first hydraulic brakes!) and a 32 5-window Chev coupe...

In my senior year (1950-1951) swapped both of them for a 1938 Buick Roadmaster convertible... My brother sold this for $75 after I graduated and departed for Parris Island...

As for the 1927 Duesenberg, did you really convert it into a farm truck??
