Very sweet finds! I love the late 30s (?) style a lot too, that grille just makes it look like it should scream down the road, lol.

I used to be a ladle skimmer in a steel mill near Pittsburgh during my college years. They used a BOF (Basic Oxygen Furnace) to melt the scrap of many a truck/car from the surrounding junk yards; in 20 minutes they would have a 250 ton pot of molten steel. As I peered into the liquid metal to skim off the slag, I often thought of the demise of this "vintage tin".
