I think this is Rensselaer, NY and that body was used on several chassis. Eventually ended up in a lawsuit, covered in one of the car magazines.

 

Cool WW2 poster for the Waves...

 

I think I remember the law issues. Was it sold at a well known auction house as an "originally bodied" car which it was later discovered to not be?

 

Something like that. It was built up, and pretty well documented in photos during construction. As I understand it, once the car got offered for sale as something other than what it was, sparks flew and the stakes were high. The final result might have ended up in a museum abroad and made its way back stateside.

 

What kind of head is on that engine??? a talking one???

 

A flathead!

 

Oh how I love the 'old days'

Can I join this club? Here's Groucho with his 1930 Packard convertible coupe.

 

They were built here in New Haven, used to know old A C's grandson, they had a gold plated erector set, in a wooden box, on the floor in the cellar. Think it went to the local historical society.
