And two pics of a 1955 Clipper that I found in my archives that was for sale here several years ago, still wearing a 1955 license plate (so most likely its original license plate).
Notice the 0-20(0) kph speedometer.

Here are two pictures, when a colleague of mine visited the museum a couple of years ago. I still need to go there, and try to get more info about its VIN. And have them fix the sign that says it's a 1955 model.

There is currently a 1956 Patrician (5682-4058) on BaT. The old lady saw better days... She displays a 1955 front bumper and grill.

You will notice the power brake conversion with a firewall-mounted brake booster. I wonder how the brake pedal was adapted to make it work.

Attaching pics for the archives.

I've collected the pictures of the 1956 cars, and put them in the attached zip. Enjoy!

A notable 1956 Patrician on eBay, located in Schenectady. It's the 15th to the last Patrician made, so a very late build indeed. It has factory air conditioning, and both dash vents and the compressor seem to appear intact. However, the car does not currently have Push Button Twin Ultramatic. I would assume that it's been converted at some point.https://www.ebay.com/itm/165021811907?mkevt=1&mkpid=0&emsid=e11021.m43.l1120&mkcid=7&ch=osgood&euid=fe8af52377214fd384340b5d0fb74755&bu=43185874745&ut=RU&osub=-1%7E1&crd=20210817024246&segname=11021&sojTags=ch%3Dch%2Cbu%3Dbu%2Cut%3Dut%2Cosub%3Dosub%2Ccrd%3Dcrd%2Csegname%3Dsegname%2Cchnl%3Dmkcid

It's an almost carbon copy of my Patrician which is 5 cars after that one. Mine is 1-tone Mojave tan, has push button, twin rear antennas, but no air. Same interior.

At least we are two in France, crazy enough to maintain those Detroit irons! I know there is another Executive coupe in Normandie, for sale on Leboncoin, for at least one year (no sale so far). Mine has the push buttons as well, and plans are to have it rebuilt by Mr. Pushbutton when I find time and motivation... In addition to few other things (TLR bushings, delay switch...).

Trying to identify a high-end coupe

Hi,
I'm trying to identify the year and model of that car, parked in Place de la Concorde, Paris, in 1947. I tend to think it's a 1935-36-ish Twelve, but my knowledge is close to zero in pre-war cars... It looks it is a high-end coupe, given its size. Headlights are obviously not factory, and the lack of a hood ornament is not surprising, as they were banned in France.
