1954 Metropolitan Convertible.     E-3615.   Built mid-February 1954.   Very early car. probably one of the first convertibles off the line.   38. 36 miles.   Very solid. nearly rust free-car.   Bottoms of the doors have some bubbles. but they have not gotten any worse since I bought the car in April 2000.   Floors are rust free.   Re-painted sometime in its life original shade of Caribbean Blue.   New “Crutcher” interior. patterned off original.   Hartz tan cloth convertible top. never been put down.  

Original Austin A-40 Engine rebuilt using N. O. S. parts through-out.   Runs perfect.   Brakes have been brass sleeved and work very good.   Runs. drives like a car this age should.   Original style 5. 20 bias ply tires. fresh painted rims.   Original spare tire cover and original black convertible boot.

I drive this car regularly in the summer.   We have frequently taken 200-mile drives.   With the 4. 625:1 rear end and the all of the whopping 42-hp. it's a nice 50-to-55 mph car.   Does not like Interstate speeds. unless it's on a trailer.

This is not a perfect car. but is very presentable.   Could stand a fresh coat of paint. dash could also stand a fresh coat of paint.   Engine compartment was restored when the engine was rebuilt.   New wire harness was also installed at that time.   All the smoke had left the original wires!  I also had the radio converted to AM-FM. with a jack for a one of those new fangled contraptions all the kids walk around with.

Pictures were taken about a month ago; we are just now getting some enjoyable summer weather.   Spring never came. we have gone into summer.
