During World War 2, as the war continued, everything from gas to food had to be rationed out, cars were included in that. Car companies had to retool to make tanks and trucks for the war. There were only a small number of new cars made in the early 1940's. And of those, they were all bought by the government and then rationed out to only certain people.
The government stockpile, had requirements: They had to be a doctor, police, firefighter, farmers and a few other essential people were allowed to buy new. And only if they had at least one car that had more than 40,000 miles on it.
As for the rest, they had to buy it as a used car. This dealership that used to sell new cars, only sold used ones. And I guess had to test drive it by rolling back and forth on the showroom floor....
My name is Mike Savad, I create one of a kind images. Photo realistic, is what people think of first. I specialize in job themes, such as Pharmacist, Doctor, Firemen, Lawyer, etc. Steampunk is another favorite. I'm certain you will find something that you will like. My art is inspired by Norman Rockwell and Paintings from the time of the Renaissance. Be sure to visit my Scene in Color section. I expertly restore and colorize black and white images. See the past come alive with color. Each image is painstakingly cleaned and repaired, colors are researched and shaded in. Images are designed to coordinate with the rest of my collection. The past was far more colorful than you would have imagined. Want something fun to do? Sometimes I hide...
