    Here is a Movie Car for restoration by the serious collector. It was in the first Wolf Man movie 1941 as seen in the photos. Lon Chaney is looking through a telescope and spots the Terraplane with the top up in one movie scene. It drives away from the Wolf Man's funeral in another scene in front of the church. This is a good solid car to restore, $19,000, but listening to all offers. Amelia Earhart Christened the Terraplanes when they were introduced to America in 1932 as seen in that photo. (352) 518-8135 Thirty miles north of Tampa.

    Hmmmm..... That's the phone number of Meritt (Roy) Marks! And the car is listed under his name in the Club roster.

    Just a wild shot in the dark, but I think that this was the same car that was for sale about a month ago?

    Yup, his car shown at his house. Very interesting car, saw it a few years ago in person. It would be a stunning car restored.
