    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.

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.

    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!

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.

    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.

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.

Did not know the car was there but there it was right inside like a lobby area and not behind glass, however I believe I remember it being roped off. 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.

    I pose a curiosity question: 1) The front windshield in some still photos shows the passenger side riddled with bullet holes, and the drivers side clear. Then in other photos, the passenger side is clear and the drivers side is bashed-in. 2) In some photos the rear window is riddled bullet holes, and some photos with no bullet holes but smashed glass. Why the discrepancies?

    The real death car had numerous bullet holes on Bonnie’s side of the car. They shot at Clyde mostly through his door. As the car was rolling into the side of the road, officers followed the car firing into the back of it.

    Some where around 1997 we went to the US historical tragedy museum in key west Florida and they advertised Bonnie and Clyde's getaway car. It was a period correct looking car complete with bullet holes. Sadly I don't have any pics from that trip. There was a bunch of morbid death stuff there. We went back within ten years later, and it was closed up and gone.

    This is the most accurate information on this car, as what I am going to write! It finally went through the proper channels of ownership. I do believe the original owners were given a payment from theft which was covered by their auto insurance company. So, really, the car belong to the insurance company. I guess, they just didn’t want it. Also, let’s not forget, Bonnie and Clyde were responsible for the deaths of 9 law enforcement officers and civilians who were caught up in their crime spree. Gas stations, drug stores, and other hard working Americans were their victims for very small amounts of cash, and only a couple of small banks. There was no asking them to surrender, because each time law enforcement did, they shot it out, cowardly leaving behind dead and wounded. So, taking them alive they got what they deserved. Try to remember the good and descent human beings they killed. However, though Clyde and his fellow gang members, who were later caught and died in the electric chair within a year, and not sitting on death row for 15, 20, 30 years on the tax payers cost like today, were the killers, Bonnie being with him was just as liable as the laws dictate today. In Grapevine, Texas the month before they were killed, Clyde and Joe Palmer murderer two highway patrolmen who pulled over to see investigate the criminals car which was pulled over the side of the road. Clyde with a BAR and Joe with a shotgun murdered them. One officer was on his first day of work and was to be married the following weekend. Think about that and not that Hollywood movie crap they try to make those punks out to be. They were cold blooded criminals and they got what they deserved. Thank you Texas Rangers and all law enforcement officers for doing their job well done!!
