History The Earl Bruce Armored Car

What a beauty...Obviously inspired by Earl's Coupe...I wouldn't have changed a thing. Did the owner you know reintegrate just the 1/4 window and leave the rest as is or reconfigure it all? I'm almost afraid to ask.... Was that a Canadian build? Quite the engine selection too...I'm with John I'd love either in my collection...and they sure wouldn't have any dust on them...

 

Flamed Gullwing, flamed shirt, ashes in the wind. This guy was a class act.

 

Well, he WAS a BRUCE!

Earl Was As Interesting As His Cars And That Is Plenty..

 

When did he chop it.

 

Did you read the original blog? He said he bought a new 40 and took it to be chopped.

 

So, the one above I posted isn`t his. That appeared in Rodders Journal sitting in front of the Ford Dealership in 1950 as someone mentioned earlier in this thread.

 

As he says.

 

So, the part about Roy chopping it is a misprint.

 

We have place in Parker, AZ and only recently found out that one of my neighbors was good friends with Bruce, cared for him til the end and owns the chopped coupe. He also has some fantastic stories about Bruce.

 

^^Come on... share some stories... please!
Thanks,
