The pilot bought a Cord 812 Phaeton before his famous round-the-world flight, during which he disappeared.
At that time, the sports model was very rare and expensive. The Cord 812 produced 1174 pieces and less than half of these were convertibles.
Thus, the car became one of the most innovative cars of its time. Already in the 30s, it has front-wheel drive and a semi-automatic preselective gearbox.
In addition, the interior of the Cord 812 is made in an aviation style, and the headlights are retractable.
The convertible has a 4.7-liter 125-horsepower V8, a top speed of 150 km/h.
After Amelia Earhart disappeared, her husband sold the car. After many owners, she was dismantled for parts.
But in 2004, Amelia Earhart’s car was assembled. And in 2018 it left for restoration.
The convertible has now been added to the US National Register of Historic Vehicles, which includes 32 rare models.
