This is interesting. I've seen the video of Jackie getting into the ambulance using the drivers side rear door. When I first saw this on the Barrett Jackson site I noticed that the way the interior of the car is layed out it would be impossible for someone to enter the car and sit that way. At the time I thought something was wrong but I've already got 50 cars I'm tracking history on so I didn't follow up on it. Good to see someone did.
The history on collector cars is so important. The more we can do as a club to track down all the genuine Tucker parts will prevent this from happening with a Tucker again. Otherwise we'll be doing it all over gain in a few years when someone finds #1042 in "Grandmas" garage and claims Preston gave it to them.

That ambulance finally went for $120,000 on the block. See this article on Jalopnik for pictures of what is supposed to be the real ambulance being crushed back in 1986.

Yeah, and it sold again after the auction for an undisclosed amount to Tammy Allen.

I saw that interview with her, but I assumed that she was the one who bought it at the auction.

I'm a little surprised no one has posted a picture of a grey Tucker ambulance yet.

Yeah...saw the interview. Listening to her talk is excruciating. Did anyone see the B-J special where they showed the construction of her museum? As part of the interior design, she had a gigantic "hood ornament" made of her face ::shudder::

Yeah, she sounds like she's done some serious acid in her day. Apparently her father was put away for some white collar crimes.
