As of April 5, 2025, this is the information we have about this car:
[Feb.01.2017] Car #683 has been located; it is owned by a friend of Bill Buckingham who was kind enough to pass along this information. Bill and his father own/owned cars #245, 337 and 356]; he writes:' When I see him next time, I'll grab a few pictures. He bought the carabout 30 years ago from my dad, and is slowly getting it back into shape. The new owner is Ronald Schweitzer.' In November 2004, he wrote: Sorry that it has taken me so long to send you any information on my Brougham. I will send a few pictures another time. I own #683 that I purchased from Bill Buckingham, Sr. in February of 1974.It is a mostly original car except for a rebuilt engine (2001) and a very old repair tothe left front fender. It has over 100k miles on it and still is a presentable car. I drive it as often as possible and take it to many car shows. I have managed to drive itover 800 miles this year. What a thrill! Also, I wanted to let you know that Brougham #19 popped up on Ebay yesterday. I don't see it on your database... [I have since added that car to the Database].' Yet another find!
