Phantom Corsair
"The Phantom Corsair of
1938 was purchased in 1947 by Richard Rush for $5,000. It was featured
in a movie, "The Young in Heart" and was owned in the
1950's by the TV host Herb Shriner. Later it became part of the
Harrah Museum Collection in Reno Nevada. Today the car is in the
National Automobile Museum and is valued at over one million dollars.
The body is a one of a kind design commissioned by Rust Heinz."
