SOME CLOSURE TO THE MONTE CARLO MATTER

At a CCCA meeting today I got some further information on the fate of 2 of the Monte Carlos from Ralph Marano. Many of you will recognize Ralph for his extensive collection of fine cars, including a gaggle or two of Darrins, 1 each of the 1934 LeBarons, and many of the postwar show cars including a Pan American, the Vignale, both Balboas, the Request, and I believe a Daytona.

Ralph's information is that one of the two 1952 Monte Carlos survives in a private collection in Georgia, and that the 22nd Series Monte Carlo was not crushed but cut up into scrap some years back.
