I just jumped on ebay and see that Benchmark is restoring a 1 of 1 1948 Tucker convertible prototype:
They also created a website so we can watch the restoring process:

Kinda cool this is happening in our backyard!
Here’s to Benchmark Classics!
Another story on it: http://www.oldcarsweekly.com/article/The_Mysterious_Tucker_convertible/“They plan to publicly show the Tucker ‘vert at both Pebble Beach and Amelia Island, with a possible SEMA appearance added later in the year.”

This is not a real convertible, it’s something someone else started and they are attempting to finish. I don’t think they’ll get anywhere near 5 million by the time it’s done (especially with the daily job losses), but it’s neat to see so close to home!
