To set the recorded straight when everyone is looking at ebay this week, the red 32 Phaeton which is listed is not a US car as they are trying to lead everyone to think.

E-bay link to car

After reviewing the pictures I can tell you that it is a Holden Body, someone did a great job putting a US windshield on the car. But it is still a Holden Body and you can tell by:
1. Top Bows, socket type -> Should be flat iron.
2. Door sill is not set back as a 32 is in the US, more like a 31.
3. 31 open car door handles (Outside).
4. Moldings on the body around the windshield, Holden Style.
5. Dash board … More like a 32 Truck dash
6. Door post on driver’s side.
7. US Phaeton’s didn’t have sill plates … Holden did.
8. Inside door handles, more like 28 and earlier then a US Phaeton

I had a look, and have asked the seller if it is a Holden. Nice car. I hope the seller can show the papers to make a precise identification.
