1948 Tucker convertible
Benchmark Classics, LLC, recently announced that it will complete the only convertible the Tucker Corporation ever started into production. The prototype vehicle, which displays the stamped #57 on both its chassis and body, was reportedly to be a gift for Preston Tucker’s wife, Vera. Since #57 was never completed due to the closing of the Tucker plant, this is not a restoration project so much as a completion project.
Once finished Benchmark Classics will possess the only original 1948 Tucker convertible in existence. It is scheduled to be done in late spring and Benchmark Classics is eager to showcase this amazing piece of history. The company will provide frequent updates of the Tucker convertible’s progress at www.tuckerconvertible.com, where pictures and video of the Tucker will be posted.
