Maybe car was done earlier and the 4 is better mantra was in full swing over there as well. Remember the late 50's into 60's here when they tried to fit in 4 headlights no matter how they looked? Bug eyed Studebakers, canted Lincolns, a RR model where they looked as much squeezed in and out of place as the ZIS does. Howard (HH56); 2012/11/10
