No idea at all. Was trying to figure out what kind of car it was and no luck. Photo was taken with my Brother who had just returned from the US Navy off of the shores of Korea.

I wish I still had the guitar I was playing in those pics. A '65 strat that was all original except for a brass nut. That was a sweet guitar...traded it for a mongrel '58 neck on a '63 body strat. Another sweet guitar until a tech ruined the neck during a fret dress. Bastard...I cried...
