Approximately 195 Cord Convertible Coupes were built during the two-year run of the Cord 810/812. Only 64 were factory supercharged of which this car is one. The Convertible Coupe has come to be known as the 'Sportsman,' though the designation was never used by Cord. In 1937, a Cord crew, including Ab Jenkins, set 35 American stock car speed records in a Supercharged Cord 812 at the Bonneville Salt Flats plus 24 hours at an average speed of 101.72 mph.Also photographed at :
