It is believed that just 12 examples of the five-passenger Fleetwood coupe model 7557-B were built in 1940. This was 11 fewer examples than in the prior year. This model included a rear bench seat, built in fewer numbers, and commanded a slightly higher price.
In 2002, the restoration work on the car was completed. In 2006, it received a complete engine rebuild. Currently, it is finished in black and outfitted with chrome trim. It is upholstered in grey broadcloth and the dashboard is of wood grain with art-deco instrumentation. The engine is an L-head V8 fitted with Stromberg Dual-Downdraft carburetors and develops 140 horsepower. There is a three-speed manual gearbox and four-wheel hydraulic drum brakes.
In 2011, the car was offered for sale at the Gooding & Company auction in Scottsdale, Az. It was estimated to sell for $70,000 - $90,000 and offered without reserve. As bidding came to a close, the car had been sold for the sum of $18,700 including the buyer's premium.By Daniel Vaughan | Jun 2015
