Guest funny_but_classy Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Hi, I am a student at Bettendorf High School looking for help from some car experts. I'm searching for information on the Tucker Car Corp. from any time between 1946-1950. Any information would be helpful, whether it be about the '48 Sedan, the company, or Preston Tucker himself. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryB Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 A Hollywood movie was made about Preston Tucker and the Tucker auto. You might want to get a copy of it to watch. I believe Jeff Bridges played Preston Tucker in the movie.Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleek Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 The Tallahassee Automobile museum in Florida has the Tucker used in the movie and also the Studebaker modified to look like a Tucker that they wrecked for the the film. They also have a picture of Tuckers grandson standing with the car when he visited the museum a few years ago. I saw the cars in person just a few days ago on a visit there. They may have more info you could use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest funny_but_classy Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Hey, thanks to all who have posted help in this thread. I know it is not easy to find information about a car company that has gone out of business, but you guys made it easier. Thanks again for taking the time to supply me with information I used in my presentation about the Tucker Car Corporation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
