Back Seat Driver: Dagmar Mea Culpa

Bill Brickach and Cheryl Fonseca write to tell me that I was all wet when I wrote that the bullet-shaped chrome fenders on the 1955 Cadillac in Ken Andrade's shop, Hot Rides in East Providence, were named after the silent screen actress Dagmar Godowsky.

They write it was the 1950's TV personality "Dagmar" who served as the origin of the name, and certainly Bill's link to this site is very convincing:
