Well we are putting our house up for sale in a couple of years so we age going through everything and tossing out much...I have been going through all my dads old popular mechanics / science and pulling articles that are interesting..and tossing the rest..

Not sure if this car was ever built..

Back when I was a kid, I had an acquaintance that had a rig like this to pour booze in his car.. now I know where he got the idea... however, he used multiple pumps for booze / mix...

Mounted on the firewall, eh? That would be pretty warm water for drinking. lol

You can do that with all your A bdiies, too Just reroute your windshield washers and fill it with water, and you're all hooked up ;)

Yes they were. 117 of them in fact, both coupes and convertibles, with 215ci Red Ram Hemi power.
They cost more than a top-of-the-line Cadillac in 1957, but reportedly were purchased by Frank Sinatra, Peter Lawford, Eddie Fisher, Glenn Ford and Desi Arnaz among others.
