In the eaely 50s the Motorma was a traveling show of style cars. Does anyone have any pictures of the truck/trailer that hauled the corvettes. I understand it could hold 3 cars and it had indents for the wheels that matched the wheelbase of the car. It was a Fruehauf. I have a lead on one that we think was the corvette one. Was it marked any different than the others?

Tyler,

You might want to be very careful if you have a lead on one. The last one that showed up at the auction, that had been restored by a few fellows in Montreal, brought in a tad over four million dollars.

Not really your run of the mill find. :D

This is a trailer not a bus. All it did was haul the cars and was pulled by a tractor.(Truck)
