As of Jan. 20, 2025, this is the information we have about this car:
[Feb.01.2017] Car #152 was not known to have survived; nonetheless, it was discovered by CLC member, George Nolan, who wrote on the Forum message board in December, 2003:I found car #152 today very sad shape it's a shame as it wasstored 25 years ago in running condition. Excellent Body and frame everything else isshot. (...) has been stored for 35 years in a garage in Titusville, Fl. It was purchased, I'm guessing, from the third owner in Orlando in 1967 by an Al Rennie. He in turn drove it for approx one year and parked it. The car was on one carb when Mr. Rennie bought it and he said it didn't have any power so lost interest. I purchased it from him this month and plan to do a full restoration of it. It is a very solid car body and framewise and windows, lights and trunk work but does not run as engine is frozen and missing carbs which are in the trunk. Any and all information you might have I would appreciateit. I'm very frightened of the electrical system and want to preserve as much of it as Ican. The car is on springs and I'm debating what to do about this. I do not like the color combination [the car is still the original Chamonix white, code #112, and trim is a combination of green and white leather; it has the mouton carpeting] and will probably change it to a different Brougham color and interior. I realize this is not correct but I have to live with it. I'm sure I will be bothering you and Mike as I move through this process. Good luck with your project, George.
