As of April 19, 2025, this is the information we have about this car:
[Sep.01.2004] Car #38 was twice offered for sale by Mike Rizzuto of Mastermind, first in May 1991, for $22,500, then again three years later, in August 1994. At that time, the asking price was down to only $4,250! This Brougham has a special paint code [#4812] which I have not found on any of the regular palettes of that era. Mike Rizzuto described it in his ad as lavender metallic with white leather trim. The photos (below) suggest it may have been damaged by fire, which would explain the 80% price reduction in three years. This car was owned in the late seventies by George All good of GA. George had a number of Broughams including many parts cars. For 1957-58 he had cars #134, 174, 234, 249, 278, 330,487, 494, 573 and 646. For 1959 he had car #25 and for 1960, this one, plus one other). Late extra (from Jason Frey, the current owner -A.D. 2000): The body is indeed #38, as shown on the cowl. The car came out of long term storage a short while ago. Furthermore, I can tell you with utmost certainty [now] that the plum color Brougham listed on your site [photo below] is not #38. I too, saw that car listed for sale last year by a dealer in Florida; the asking price was around $22,000- $25,000. That car and the one I purchased are two different 1960 Broughams. I will have the Brougham home this week, and will attempt to gather some history from the past owner(s), which will help us piece some facts together. In a second message Jason correctly identified his car's rare color scheme [code #4812] as a two-tone job consisting of Persian Sand [code #48] for the lower body and Olympic White [code #12] for the roofand quarter panels [had I seen the code written as ' 48-12' , I could have workedit out all by myself!] This must have been a beautiful and stunning combination! It reminds me of the color of my own, former 1960 Eldorado Seville which was painted metallic lilac [code #99] with a white Vicodec roof covering. I hope Jason will return this car soon it to its former glory. Late late extra [Sept. 2004]: I had the pleasure of meeting the car's owner on the occasion of the bi-annual Charlotte auto fair. He still hopes to restore the car but has had other priorities meantime.
