Wow, the rust in the top of the car is pretty scary. I guess not all CA cars are rust free.

I've seen south Florida cars with rust in odd places as well. The salt air does strange things to sheet metal.

Yet another 54, so many survived. Each KFOCI member that wants one, can have one. 

Supercharger missing?  I think so, if it is a Manhattan.
No old cars owned.

K-F products must have had unusually high quality chrome plating. I don't think a '54 Ford or Chevy in similar condition would have any plating left.
