Equipment
Chrome wire wheels, wide whitewall tires, dual sidemounts with chrome bands and mirrors, wind wings, black leather covered trunk, rollup rear windshield, polished hood side louvers, leather upholstery. Ex-Otis Chandler, John McMullen, and John O'Quinn.
Condition
First owned by comedian Joe E. Brown, later de-bodied and used as a glider launcher by Hughes Aircraft during WWII. Rebodied in the mid-1970s, CCCA Senior National First Prize winner in 1989. An aging older restoration now in touring condition. Good paint, chrome, and interior. Chassis has been repainted assembled and is unappealing but the automobile itself is exceptionally attractively bodied.
Market commentary
With a long history of ownership by some of the country's best known and most knowledgeable collectors, this car carries a certain obligation for continued use and preservation by the new owner. The price, for a rebodied car even if it is rebodied in its original style, is ample, especially considering the aged presentation of its restoration.
