I suppose I’ve been doing my homework. Every morning I look at the updated registries. Car 1881 was bought new by the CEO of Alcoa industries. If you don’t know what Alcoa is, it is an aluminum manufacturing power house that I believe exists to this day! Aluminum was very expensive to make until this company stepped in and made the refining process better which led to cheaper aluminum products. Alcoa was instrumental to the production of WWII aircraft and ultimately helped us win the war from the sky.
