 Notes:
Original body was either a LeBaron Conv. Sedan, or a Willoughby Berline, and perhaps one followed the other.  Marshall Merkes broke it up for parts c. 1949, but the engine, J-375, remained mostly intact.  Leo Gephart acquired the remainder, primarily the engine, in the 1970s and had Ted Billing build a car around it.  The current frame is stamped 2394, but it is believed to be a reproduction, because most of the rest of the car had been sold off for parts.  A supercharger was added at this time, and probably is one of Gephart's reproductions.
