Tom’s friend, Merle Wolfer, sent him this link. Looks familiar! Reminds me of stuff from Jeff MacNeely’s drawing board (“Shoe” and that old '59 DeSoto):

Subject: The '59 PlymouthJack! I loved the cartoon with the '59 Plymouth. I took the liberty (with attribution) of posting it on my website.
Can you tell me if there was a particular vehicle that served as the inspiration?
Love your stuff! Keep up the good work.

We used to have one.
No seatbelts.
I used a photo reference off of Google images, but I didn’t save it…
Best,Jack
Dan,
I see you are wearing your Sherlock Holmes hat again and carying your magnifying glass.
Great investigative work on your part - going behind the scenes to scope out another potential 59 Plymouth owner.
Great story.
Thanks for all you do!
Curt
