Caribbeandude, Do you know anything about the alleged Lionel Barrymore history on the wheelchair 180? I wonder if this provenance is documented or widely known?

Thanks,
Jim

It sounds plausible. The Wikipedia article on Barrymore says he broke his hip in an accident, was in a wheelchair and played some of his characters in it. Goes on to say his worsening arthritis kept him in the chair.

Is Don Rook OK? I bought a car from him around 1979 before he moved from PA to AR. He is hugely into Chrylser 300s.

I wonder why he is selling out? I did not ask any about the history of the supposed Lionel Barrymore car, he did tell me that he did own it though

Can someone explain why the 1934 1107 V12 in need of a total restoration went for $50k? Are they worth that much restored??

Wow...
