What year are these cars? 1939?

One has 120 on the side mount spare, the other is a twelve?

What kind of a hood ornament is that?


Let the ride decide, in front of the last pic FDR sits in a blue 1939 V12, furnished with special hood ornament. Today the car is shown at the Toyota Automobile Museum.

FDR or his staff had a partiality for individual hood ornaments. Take a look at this one, embellishing his 1932 Twin Six 905 (body style 570) with the New York governor's fleet insignia.
