I wouldn't be surprised if your Checker wound up in a place like this. I accidently found this rather large collection of cars in Dubai, UAE while on leave. A rather rich member of the local community placed his cars on display in a elaborate building with marble floors and skylights highlighting the perfectly restored beauties. Fords, Chevrolets, old military trucks, and some makes I have never seen before were there for anyone to view for no admission. Such places are common in the Middle East. I wish we could have saved the cars Saddam had in his collection. Most of them were destroyed, including a couple of Packards.
