This Cord Cabriolet has been part of the Malcolm Pray collection since 2001, when it was acquired from Carlos Dominguez, of Palm City, Florida. Earlier owners are known to have included the Blackhawk Collection. This Cabriolet was a 1936 model that remained leftover in dealer stock at the end of the year, so it was renumbered as a 1937 by the factory. The car was originally built with a normally aspirated engine, and that the present supercharged engine, FC 2133, was installed later in life.
Mr. Pray treated the car to significant cosmetic and mechanical work, which was performed by the Pray Body Shop, and the most recent of which was completed in 2012. The indicated mileage of 999 is believed to have been covered since restoration.By Daniel Vaughan | Apr 2014
