Ah yes, cracking is British slang for great, superb etc. I didn't mean they had cracks in them

...This car was "more than meets the exacting requirements which are imposed upon designers of International auto vehicles".
In general appearance and design, this car was "all that the most particular automobile enthusiasts could expect". The graceiul lines must appeal to those who have aesthetic taste.
This car was specially desirable for those who want a light roadster. The seat was "roomy and comfortable". The levers for controlling the mechanism were convenient to the driver. This car was a shaft drive, and was furnished regularly with two oil side lamps, one oil tail lamp, two gas headlights, generator, tools and horn. On special order, at a small additional expense, a Toy tonneau with a roomy rumble seat would be furnished; extra rear boot box; top with side and front curtains; wind shield; gas tank; combined speedometer and odometer, and jack.
...Have you ever seen a car with such list of the optional equipment? :)

@Arseny: You have forgotten the 1959 GMC F-Model "Crackerbox" (with sleeper cab).
