Owner of 1955 Clipper Super Panama
Posted by RogerDetroit On 2014/8/6 21:52:40
I have some information for the owner of a 1955 Clipper Super Panama with the vehicle number of 5547-7074.
Shown below is the Owner Identification Card for the original owner, Forest D. Emerson of 6735 S. Ridgeland in Chicago (area). The car was delivered new by Fohrman Packard Studebaker Ltd at 2700 W. Madison in Chicago.
I noticed that this dealership is NOT listed in the dealership data base on this site. In researching this dealership tonight I learned that it was owned by Benjamin Fohrman and on Jan. 7, 1966, Donald Dean Jackson, a crazed ex-convict on barbiturates, walked into the agency and threatened ``to shoot all the bosses.`` He had purchased a car there the year before and was described as a disgruntled customer.
He shot to death Mr. Fohrman`s sons Sidney, 49, and Edward, 42, as well as Albert Sizer, 64, director of the car-leasing department. The gunman took 2 female employees as hostages and exchanged gunfire with the cops. A sharpshooting cop killed him with a shot to the head.
Anyone know the whereabouts of 5547-7074???
