Description:
Like the Fresh Prince of Bel Air, this brown 1941 QDL came from West Philadelphia. The tweed case is pretty well wrecked, and combined with the bottom rust, suggests that it was in some flooded basement for a while. But I brought it back to life with a new drawband, a thorough cleaning, and a layer of varnish to the undercarriage to prevent the rust from coming back. Hopefully.
