Anybody on here know this car? I've never seen nor heard of it.
Interesting example that's for sure.

This car started life a different color, green I believe. Larry Barker  commented quite a bit on FB about it.

Interesting example of the modified Frazer automobile (V-8 and 12 volt system).  The 3-piece back window in the convertible top is the factory type rather than a 1-piece rear window that some of the cars have.

I did look at the KF page Facebook and saw the Larry Barker had given a history on the car.  I was pretty sure black was not the original color and Larry points this out.  Looks nice just the same.
