Above: Sioux City 1958......... Below: New York taxi in 1900. It has one unusual sitting arrangement, with a non US side for the steering wheel and drivers side. I've also never seen a single seat in the front for a chauffer, even in the early classics where the chauffer was exposed to the weather and the passengers were in a seperated back section. This is most definitely an unusual car. I never seen one before... for me that makes it cool just for that factor.
