We called it the “Blue Beetle”, it was a late thirties Chevy painted blue with a brush and blue house paint. My father totaled it on 9W in Englewood Cliffs. Its spare tire was on the back of Eddie Ulrich’s tow truck for years. Eddie's auto body shop was on Edwin off Main Street for many years.

I can still see it, but I don’t remember what happened to it. I do remember that the bank added an addition in 1972, and added fake walls to make the second story appear to be larger than it was. That may be when the clock came down. Where it went, I don’t know.
