Highlights

Opulent, hand-crafted limousine from the then foremost builder of quality cars in the United States
This limousine variant of the already long wheelbase 75 Series is remarkably rare as one of only 382 examples built
Beautifully preserved, highly original example
The car wears a streamlined, 'Torpedo' body that first appeared on the 1940 range and features a horizontal 'egg-crate' grill
A lavish interior trimmed in tan cloth upholstery seats nine and benefits from updated carpeting throughout
The Madeira Maroon paintwork presents wonderfully, as does the chrome brightwork and 16-inch polished wheel covers
Under the hood is the original V8 engine as per consignor, which by 1948 was offered in a single 346 cu-in variant producing 150 horsepower
Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a column-shifted three-speed synchromesh manual transmission
Spent time in Canada prior to being acquired by the current owner in 2005
Showing 67,797 miles at the time of cataloging, which is believed to be the original mileage

Chassis No. 487517810
