In the movie, "Back to the Future" Doc Brown owned a white convertable. But i have no idea what year, make or model this car is. Here ia link to a picture of the car.

I do have a closer picture of the car, but this one shows it at a better angle. If anyone knows a website I can reasearch cars at please let me know.

It almost looks like a 1947-49 Packard from those views, but not sure.
Is there a front view shot of the car?
