We bought the car in Austin, Minnesota in the very early 1970s. It had around 35,000 miles on it. We also bought a 1946 Packard at the same time. The front bumper of the '42 was in pretty bad shape (chrome pealing), so we put the 1946 bumper on the '42. I think we still have the rust-free doors from the '46, but we junked the rest of the car (I believe they are the same as on the '42, so if your doors are now too rusty to repair, let me know).
We sold the '42 to a man in Ohio in the mid-1980s. At the time, it still has fewer than 40,000 miles on it.
Lost track of it and never heard about it again until we saw it on Craigslist last month. I had been searching for it for quite some time, even made a post on this forum asking if anyone knew where it was. I have had its serial number written on a Post It note and sitting on my desk for several years (1532-2054).
