3682 in 1974 Columbia Ranch Studio Fire
I'd love to get that VIN! What was your source for that photo?
Speaking of Mark II's and fires. Attached is a newspaper photo of Mark II legend Buddy Holiday's 3682 which was severely burned in the Columbia Ranch, Burbank studio fire on September 9th, 1974
3682-Movie Fire - Copy.jpg
In his Continental Mark II Owners Association Newsletter - 1986 Nov-Dec Vol 10, No 1 - he mentioned the car "In 1971 m love was rekindled when I was driving down Wilshire Blvd. in Beverly Hills and spotted two Mark IIs on a used car lot...one had a Leopard interior and fender skirts that extended all the way back to the bumper. The other #3682 was minus the complete interor and was white as was the other one. #3682 was supposed to have been color #20, a medium green iridescent and was the one I bought and tenderly restored it twice, having been destoryed once in a movie studio-set fire"
