Good thing they didn't offer a bra with that thing

That would have been a bone-us
sorry bonus

I took a couple of pics of this one at the Mopars at the Red Barns show a couple of years ago.

the 1978 Kit Car on the trailer with the #43 on the door is a rare car too

There's 2 or 3 people out there with their restored LaFemmes that would give an organ for that purse.

Your welcome, I guess I've been very lucky so far, I've seen 2 of them in the flesh and looked them over closely but without touching them of course (I never lay hands on another persons car without permission of course). I also was lucky enough to be able to talk with the owner of the one at the Red Barns show. BTW, took the photos of the first one too. Back in about 2012 I think. That one was at the W.P. Chrysler Museum, so must be that the state of Michigan has all the surviving La Femme's???

Here is a Curbside Classic blog entry on the Dodge La Femme:

I couldn't believe it when I saw it. Now I just need to find a car to go with it.

Wow, it looks like brand new. Those purses came standard with the '55 Dodge LaFemme.

That is pure gold! Last year I found a NOS GM tissue holder in the original box with the original box of tissues in it at an estate sale. It brought $1900 on ebay. That is much rarer!!!
