***I'm not sure of the manufacturer and model but I posted some screen captures on Mayberry Historical Society for the all the official car identification notifiers out there. ***
That appears to me to be a 1955 Ford Fairlane Sunliner convertible. I think I once called it a '56 here on the forum and several people piped right up and corrected me, surprised I haven't heard from them yet. But they were right, it was indeed a '55. Mayberrians were apparently Ford people mostly; although Ford supplied new cars for the show, even many of the featured older ones turn out to be Fords, like this one or Barney's deal he got from "Hubcaps" Lesch, or Emmett's '59 Ford pickup. I'm guessing the same dealer who provided the squad cars provided a few extras from its used car division. Obviously there was the occasional exception like Howard Sprague's '64 Chevy. Love the shot of Frances Bavier's real world car, the Studebaker.
