In the mid '50's, one of my best friends had a 444 or 544, which I always thought looked like miniature '41 Fords.
It had enough miles (a million?) to need a rebuild and the story went that block's Swedish steel was so strong it broke the bore bar.
I've never been sure if it was true.

Speaking of a million miles, I was really impressed by Volvo ads featuring salesman Irv Gordon's P1800.
