The guy that bought the car from me and in the video was Todd Baker, Sr.  It was clear and rewarding to me to know that he had time to enjoy and show the car before his tragic death.  He was intent on purchasing cars like the ones he had owned as a young man—including a Platinum C-300 and a Sunbeam Alpine.  Thanks to Noel for his help with some “issues” with the car..

FYI - Todd Stokes is the fellow who purchased the '55 from Rich and, tragically, was killed in his Alpine by a kid who ran a light in his Jeep, in a town right near me. I assisted Todd do a video of this car very shortly after he purchased it - https://www.mycarstorywithlou.com/vidoes-of-the-cars/1950-55/

Hi, Larry:

 Good eye.

 I did advise the first buyer of the originality of the Motor Wheel wires but the great majority out there just think K-H was the maker of all wires.  Only we insiders and a few of our cohorts know and relish the little-known fact that MoPar’s ride on Motor Wheel wheels, but have crappy K-H power brake boosters (in 1955, anyway)..

 The car has gone through at least two buyers since I sold it five years ago.  The first buyer died in a car crash when his Sunbeam Alpine was broad-sided.  The car then went to Volo car museum and sat for a while with diminishing prices—then was snapped up—possibly by current seller.

 I hope it finds a loving home.  It is an early car--#198—with original engine #98.

Guess you didn't share with the seller that those wires are not K-H

My former 1955 C-300 now on e-Bay for $57K.  https://www.ebay.com/itm/1955-Chrysler-300-Series/283949584129                   

 

Looking pretty good.  Déjà vu all over again.
