I saw this Bonnie and Clyde car in 1972 at the fair in Madison or Milwaukee. I was eight years old. My parents paid a few dollars to take us all into a circus tent where there were lots of folding chairs and the older gentleman running the show played the films of the ambush reenactment. After that, we all stood in line to walk past the car and get a good lQQK. If my memory serves me right, the gentleman was a colonel Tom Parker type! When I got to the car, he said “ come here little fella! You can get a good look… “ with that, he grabbed me under the armpits and stood me on the passenger side, running board, where I got to peak in through the window and stick my head in there. It smelled old and musty and was pretty macabre, and it made a big impression on me that I have never forgotten. Thanks to that gentleman for giving me that lasting memory. 😀

Great story! Thanks. My sister-in-law got a '66 Mustang in turquoise color. When my brother and she came visiting in October 2017 on a sunny day, they let me drive it a few blocks. It was cool but it smelled musty too, but it was beautiful.

I really enjoyed watching & listening to your video! I was born in 1953,in the early to mid 1960's,a man had the car inside an enclosed trailer. It was parked in a small shopping center parking lot. I believe it cost me about 25 cents to enter the trailer,walk around the car. It was roped off by red velvet ropes, so you couldn't actually touch the car. I'm 70 now,& will always remember that bullet riddled car,& the broken glass! I only wish i could've looked inside of the car! I almost forgot, this was in Columbus, IN.

Great video. I was at the auction of this car back in 1973. There was a significant amount of promotional advertising in various old car magazines prior to the auction in Worcester, Mass run by the Auburn, Indiana based Kruse Auction House.. I remember the Ted Toddy telling those in the crowd to touch the car to bring luck as it brought him so much luck. I reached over and touch the rear fender. My mother was so angry......claiming that Bonnie and Clyde had no such luck touching that car.....and now I was cursed!!! Ha! Fun times.

My Dad took me to the local K-Mart on a Sunday afternoon back in the mid 1970s to (allegedly) view the Bonnie & Clyde car along with one of Hitler's Mercedes. They were travelling across the country, placing an ad in the local newspaper, and showing up at little podunk towns and displaying them in a couple of tractor-trailers. You paid your buck or two and walked through to see the cars. Still not sure just how authentic either of them were!

Hi Bart- I have no way of knowing if it was the actual car, but back in the late 1970s, my father had a Body Shop on the outskirts of Cleveland, Ohio and for about two weeks, he stored what was supposed to be the Bonnie and Clyde car. I remember it extremely well... It was tied down to a big flatbed car hauler. It looked EXACTLY like the period pictures, same bullet holes and bloodstains... You name it. I remember that the tires were rotten and flat. I remember the lettering being on the hood. And the car was FILTHY. Dad had a crew of 7 or 8 guys working in the shop at the time, and I remember him having two at a time stay overnight while that particular car was there. As I remember, it was either the winter of 1976 or 1978. But I certainly do remember that car. I wonder if it could be confirmed that it was in Ohio during one of those winters? Of course, it could have been a replica or a fake... But my memory for small detail has always been excellent... And I remember the car that was stored at dad's shop being exactly like the real thing. Cheers... Hopefully you'll be able to put that mystery to rest for me.

The story of Bonnie and Clyde has always fascinated me. What I can not understand is why this famous couple of lovers incurred in the crimes of those 30s. Although the video shows incorrect images with the case as seeing Bonnie lifeless protruding from the car in the place of the driver seems to me a good video that makes you think how that fatal year of 1934 must have been in that convulsed moment.

I remember in either 1973 or 74 when this car came to karcher Mall in Nampa Idaho .at that time it wasn't uncommon to see cars of this age that had bullet holes in them in fact I knew where several cars were in the mountains that had taken a slide down an embankment and they would stay there for years and over the course of time people shot them full of holes. But as a kid seeing those holes in the Bonnie and Clyde car was your whole different experience at 8 years old.

Got a pretty good look at it and it still looked pretty gruesome even after all the years. If that car could talk it would be a helluva conversation.

Thanks ! I always wondered how it got to Nevada, when I saw it in 1994. When I was 13, I saw the movie and was captivated with the story and the ambush. Interesting that the first owner's last name was the same as the actor that portrayed Clyde (Warren Beatty). Coincidence or synchronicity. 😉

Great info....thanks so much ! The car is no longer at Whiskey Pete's. It left in June, 2021 on loan to Ronald Regan Presidential Library FBI exhibit July 2, 2021 through January 9, 2022. 2023, supposedly back on display at Primm Valley Resort & Casino.

It was displayed at Modern Motor's Ford in St. Joseph, Mo. I think around 1947.

We moved into our house in 1976. Our neighbors used to not lock their doors at night. They started locking up after their truck was stolen from the driveway during the night. The keys were in it also.

Somewhere through its history someone took it. It’s unknown where it is at today. Perhaps for sale in a flea market, not realizing it’s historic value. Thank you for watching

@@bartl.largent9048 it's sad it had to go that far.. that cop just wanted to profit off a stolen car that wasn't his.. even back then it was law, if your car got stolen u got it back once it's recovered by law enforcement after they search for evidence and etc.. the car automatically supposed to be released to the owner without having a court order.. that cop was shady.

Then today I found this and it is a heck of allot more interesting than the entire timeline of the murdering, "loser gas station hold up artists" we can't seem to hear enough about.
