The first owner of this 1957 Dual-Ghia is not known, but it is certain from company owner Eugene Casaroll's client-selection process that it was someone recognizable and important in the news and society of the late-1950s. It was acquired by the previous owner in 1982, who began its restoration only a few years later and it was completed in 2003, winning its class at the 2008 Louisville Concours d'Elegance. One of three Dual-Ghias in this owner's history, he stated unequivocally that it is the best, and runs and drives like new. Acquired from a Reno, Nevada owner who had it since 1977, it has a western U.S. history and benefited from a benign climate and conditions and has no known damage.

Finished in red with PPG acrylic enamel, the glass, stainless and chrome trim all have been redone to concours-level standards and the top was made by a specialist with experience with several Dual-Ghias. It has the Dual-Ghia's standard power windows, power brakes, power steering and TorqueFlite automatic transmission, as well as a working period radio and fully functional gauges. One of the most exclusive, distinctive, and elegant automobiles of the last century, it is truly a rare find as one of only 117 examples produced.
