What exactly did you ask em?

 

If it's there, if it's on display, what time to they close, what kind of security system do they have, and where do they keep the keys?

[Imperial21]

is that the Walter P. Chrysler Museum in Auburn Hills MI you are talking about? or is there another chrysler museum somewhere? the WPC museum is cool, i went there a couple of years ago-don't remember any comanches though...

[georgiaboy27]

someone mentioned in the previous post about this truck that it was there, so I just inquired about some more information on it, maybe some photos, or any type of feedback.......

[Guest vzehler]

They'll probably e-mail you back with the cost of tickets and directions to the museum... lol

[georgiaboy27]

you are probably right......lol, but worth a shot though.......

What's that tree rat in your avatar drinking, a wee pint of Guinness stout? :cheers:

[georgiaboy27]

UPDATE: here is the response I got.......your gonna love this one,

 

 

We do have an AMC concept vehicle in the Archives called a 'Thunderchief'

that was built by AMC before Chrysler purchased them in 1987. The vehicle

appears to be based off a Commanche with ground effect skirts, pick-up box

mounted spare, stylized rollbar, light bars, etc. It is not on display at

the Walter P. Chrysler Museum and there are no current plans to display

it. No photographs exist.

 

We do not have any information on the vehicle at the Archives and do not

really know who was involved at AMC or why.

 

Sorry we could not help.

 

Regards,

 

Bruce R. Thomas

Corporate Historian

 

 

 

there ya go, just to show ya.........

[georgiaboy27]

WHERE IS THIS TRUCK? the enevitable search continues.........

[maddzz1]

I love how the "corporate historian" doesnt know who was involved or why. Must be the unmotivated drunk brother of some hi level exec.

[Xacto]

He also doesn't know how to spell Comanche. :nuts:

[JpComancheKid]

The corporate historian is a chrysler historian, this concept was made under amc, so maybe if we found a historian for amc then we could find the truck.

Isn't Bruce saying in the first sentence that his musuem has the truck, but it is not on display and he doesn't have any additional info on it?

 

Perhaps if they create a new exhibition titled 'The trucks of Jeep", they will roll it out.

[SuperWade2]

Yah, I was thinking the AMC historian could get us more info about it...

[Lewt2007]
