Being a very valuable asset during war times, the car was always parked in a dedicated spot in the barn when not in use. In 1948, the good Doctor passed away, the car was put on blocks and covered with bed sheets.

Some of the more interesting things found in the glovebox:
Owner's instruction book in its original envelope
"Sentinel" first aid kit, incl. a bottle of "Mercuro-Chrome"
Small upholstery brush, an old bottle opener, a parking stub dated 8/16/19 41, from the "Glen Valley Rodeo"
