<VV> 1948 Tucker/No Corvair but rear engine

[HallGrenn at aol.com]

If you are ever in the Washington, D.C. area be sure to call for an  
appointment to see the world's most complete Tucker museum just over the river  in 
Alexandria, VA.  Two of the cars were used in the movie and the exhibits  
include various engines and transmissions that show their development along 
with  a Tucker safety chassis alongside a Cadillac of the same era for  
comparison.  They even have all of the factory records.

Probably not a  scam but certainly not mass production ready either.
