After spending decades as a
collection of parts stuffed into wooden crates the F-88 was
reassembled. In 1954 the F-88 was a Motorama
“Dream Car” and was one of only two or an unconfirmed possible three
ever created. The F-88 seen here is literally the only car left of its
kind and was sold to John and Maureen Hendricks at the prestigious
Barrett-Jackson Auto Auction in Scottsdale, Arizona for an unbelievable
$3,240,000. This acquisition made automotive history and is the
“cornerstone” of the Gateway Colorado Automobile Museum in its own special room
in a rotating display worthy of the F-88.
