This car used to belong to Ed Bernier in Winslow AZ.  my brother-in-laws, fathers car.  It was sold at auction in 2009 for $12750.00, and was previously housed at Don Laughlins casino car museum in Laughlin NV.  The car is one of 107 mfg in 54 with the factory powersteering and supercharger I was told.  The car was restored about 25 years ago by Ed and then put into the museum.  From the pictures it looks the same as when it was sold except the mirror on the passanger door is missing.   The vin is K542004755  I would love to have been able to have kept it in the family but we couldn't. If one of you are able to buy it let me know I would like to keep tabs on the car and maybe  one day buy it back.

Easiest way to buy it back is probably just to keep it.  Anyway, good luck, sounds like a good one.

That is a really nice one.  You can not restore one for that kind of money!  I hope one of us can get it as it looks like a winner.
