Signs
The Tucker had the capability to show its backside to most of its contemporaries. Its rear mounted, helicopter derived 335 cubic inch boxer six put out 365 horsepower, 372 ft. lbs. of torque and weighed a mere 320 lbs. it boasted a higher top speed than a 1954 Olds V8 and more horsepower than a 1954 Caddy.
So great a capture!

Hi Lois,
Beautiful car. Like those signs, the passed by a Tucker is a good one. Have a great day!

I’m sure the attendants at the Signal gas station loved it when one of these pulled in!
