Nice piece of history, is the car still in the family?

Oh how I wish.  See #12  Sold for $385k in 2007 at the RM auction in Montery.  It's up for auction again! http://www.rmauctions.com/FeatureCars-RW.cfm?SaleCode=RW09&CarID=r208&fc=1

Probably still out of my league.  Guess I could sell the house...

Just don't sell the SERG.
60 years from now it will be worth the same!

Nice thread Greg. How did it initially get away from your dad ?  Thinking back I guess thats a question we all can ask ourselves about neat stuff we've had in the past.  Doc

Uncle Jim had a minor crash in it (as I understand) and it sat stored in his shop from about 1951 until 2001.  I had asked about it to no avail.  He put it in Hemmings and Van Buskirk flew out from Indiana to buy it.   :'(  He did a great restoration as you can see.  Dad and I got to sit in it at the Rodeo Drive Concourse in 2007.  BTW that is a spectacular Father's Day event each year.
