One of the odd things I find on Michael's profile is the car. On Charley Project and Namus it's identified as a 1950 or 1951 Dodge Clipper with twin exhausts and mufflers. The thing is I don't find any record of a vehicle by that name from Dodge. I do see images of a vehicle called a Clipper but it's a Packard vehicle. It's typical of that era, a huge boat of a car. I've seen a white 1951 Dodge which would attract attention of the younger generation. Probably the film Rebel Without a Cause created interest in older vehicles. If it was all tricked out with double mufflers and exhausts I could see it being targeted for theft. Could it be a 1941 instead of a 1951 vehicle?
There would seem to be some confusing information regarding this car. Double exhausts would only be found on a vehicle of that era which had a V-8 engine.
Prior to 1953, all Dodge cars came with either a straight (in line cylinder) six or straight eight engine. The Packard Clipper was always either straight six or straight eight.
Dodge did not have a model named "Clipper" but did have a "Crusader" model starting in 1951 - mostly for sale in Canada.
I think that there must have been some mistaking the facts in this case regarding the car's description.
