Stutz Victoria
# 1G 3AN 69Y 3CM 137108
In summer 2003, there was an interesting auction
at Ebay,
four Stutzes were offered in one lot.
This car was included,
but only file photos were shown, showing a "standard"
Stutz Victoria, in a similar color.
In March 2004, I discovered the car, offered by Beverly
Classic Car,
and besides the fact that the actual pictures show
a wonderful car,
the photos show a unique Stutz Victoria!
Do you see the difference to all the other Stutz Victorias?
Have a look at Mr.
Loucks' car, or the car
of Mr. Douthitt, or the Geneva
Show Car.
Well, it's quite easy, the difference is: this Victoria has sidepipes!
On this photo you can see the difference to the IV-Porte,
the longer wheelbase,
so the C-pillar is bigger, the rear-door doesn't reach
the wheel-section.
The car seems to be in excellent condition!
This Victoria is based on a chassis of 1982.
I think the Victoria model was presented in 1984,
so I think this is an early one.
Perhaps it's the first one, because all others (until
now) don't show sidepipes...
Here you can see the dashboard...
A look to the passenger compartment, pure luxury,
and on the TV you can see the original decal!
