Bob, That’s interesting to hear. Hopefully with two other TC’s in the shop, he can make you an exact replica of the partition wall that you are missing.
Yesterday, I was counting over the 1987 article, excluding the one that they described as being crafted from a town sedan and the Aalholm one which obviously is a fake. Adding yours and the one subject of this thread I came to 25. Comparing to your figure, that would suggest that only your car and the one in this thread have surfaced since 1987. Can you confirm?
I do believe I saw that there was one referred to as «the pelican» because it had been modified with a very long visor. I could not readily identify any of the cars in the 1987 article as being that car. So perhaps that means there is one more ?

I know of the whereabouts of most of the know Model A Town Cars. My count is around 25. However a few of those did not start out as Town Cars. Most of the "reproductions" are fairly easily identified by a trained eye. However I know of one that would fool almost everyone.
There has been many changes in ownership since the 1987 article. There is a chance that there may be an update article sometime soon (no promises).
