1950 Crosley Hot Shot

Description

Crosley was a pioneer in small cars. This was the convertible version...he also made a two door sedan, a station wagon and a utility vehicle. Mr. Crosley also manufactured radios and refrigerators. We had one of his original refrigerators, a Crosley "Shelvador"..one of the first to have shelves in the door. It had but one door, and the freezer compartment was very small..no wonder...there were very few frozen foods! My how times change..the compressor never did give up before being replaced by a more modern "Philco" two door unit. These little Crosley cars never really caught on...they were a bit too early...and they had serious competition from Nash Rambler.
