As of Jan. 15, 2025, this is the information we have about this car:
[May.01.2010] Car #340 was offered for sale on eBay in March, 2004. No information about this car had been previously available. Thanks to Damon Lenszner in the UK for picking this one out for me. One more car added to the roster of survivors. Here's what the vendor said about it: Caris drivable but needs tune up. Has new tires andbattery. Body and frame are straightand solid with no leaks. Some minor paint bubbles, but basically rust free. Car was re-painted some years ago and new interior added [that 'new interior'probably will hinder the sale !] . Showing some wear now. Driver's side window not working. One minor ding in stainless steel top. Glass in good condition. Chrome generally very good. Should be easy to restore as Broughams go [yeah, right!]. Great candidate for a ground up restoration or drive as is. LateExtra [Dec. 2006]: The car was offered for sale again on eBay. It has been partly dismantled since the previous sale in 2004. Later still [Sept., 2008]: this one was taken in part exchange by Andy Kerby Jones (UK - car #197) when he sold #417 to a collector in Devon, UK. Andy said that was a mistake; he has since sold #417 to Joger Johannsson, a Swedish aficionado. Latest [May, 2010]: Andy reports that the car has been sold to a Swedish collector in Falun , Sweden for $26k. Many parts are missing; hopefully the interior will be replaced during restoration.
