Those are hens teeth rare. They were still in the cardboard boxes as bought from a visit to the Tucker demonstration tour when Tucker did everything possible to generate publicity and interest.
Tucker encouraged customers to buy a radio, seat covers or fitted luggage in advance of their car purchase.
The car owners even have collected original dealership banners, an extra engine, new-old stock radios and seat covers in original boxes.
The Carpenters, they've had to wait to own this for about 20 years, as their friend owned it, died, it was bought and restored, and when that owner died, they finally were able to acquire it from the widow.
