This Cadillac Fleetwood 60 Special Sedan was originally ordered by Mr. Louis Montgomery Du Commun of San Francisco. His chauffeur, Mr. Lee, was sent to Detroit to take delivery of the car in early October of 1946, and drive it to San Francisco. Mr. Lee chauffeured Mr. Du Commun in the car for the next two decades. Upon Mr. Du Commun's death in 1966, the car was willed to Mr. Lee. Mr. Lee retained the car for the next four decades. After Mr. Lee passed away in 2006, the car was sold to Bayard Guild of Dover, Maine. Mr. Guild passed away in 2007, and the car was put into storage until it was acquired by a collector who had it returned back to California. In December of 2018, Original Cadillac owners' info card still in the passenger kick panel.
