I believe that one is a 1938 coupe, found in upstate NY. The one in the posted artical was found in northern UK.

AP Story

You are correct. I remember the TV show host, “Wayne Corrini (sp?)” tried to buy it at auction for a bid close to 800k, and lost the bid. Although, he is the guy that recovered the car.

thought to be one of just 17 built

I had four of these when I was a kid. A few years after I moved out, my mom threw them out.

I hate when that happens.
