I don't recall the vin number on this car but there is a thread on it here. The car is located a few miles from my house so I've seen it on the road from a distance.

VIN:C5681083 or 1083. Check out the videos on this forum. Looks much better in black. John

Yes, this is Gene Epstein's Continental Derham Victoria Mark II. Derham was a custom coachbuilder in Rosemount, PA from 1887 to 1971. They produced some custom Mark IIs that had this large extension (which also provided more trunk space). Obviously, they started with a production Mark II and made a number of modifications.

The B pillar on this car is actually spot on to the first generation with the large blind spot.

I can't find the other posts. Is there any documentation on the Derham build? I've seen one other Mark II in the Carmel California area with a padded vinyl top and a Derham badge but no formal documentation.

Use the forum search box in the upper right hand corner. Put in the last four of the VIN (1083). Click the magnify

Enjoy. John
