Ric Simpson was darn near born in a Cord. At least he was brought home from   the maternity hospital in one! He's the Cord-owning son of a Cord-owning father and has driven his faithful phaeton through generations of Canadian summers and winters.

You can see the back of the elder Simpson's new Cord Westchester sedan in this 1941 photo, a bit wrinkled by the years. So where's Ric? See the two-year-old peering out of the rear window?
