While on an antique-hunting trip with our wifes, Bill Miller and I were given a lead on an unusual car near Fairgrove, Michigan, east of Bay City. We drove out to Fairgrove and found this unusual car, and photographed it. We were offered the car for sale, but both passed on it, and it was eventually sold to a couple from Florida. The gentlenab who bought the car later died, and I was, once again offered the car which was now in Florida, and some drastic changes had been made to it. Once again, I passed, as I was working on some other unusual projects. The car was eventually purchased right in Florida, by Geoffrey Hacker, a college technology instructor and collector of (to say the least!) rare cars. As of the opening of the this new website, on Jan 11, 2011, I can only find a couple of pictures of the car.

Davis coupe 483AE139 is currently the highest serial numbered Davis car known to exist. It was built in Van Nuys, California, and in the bankrupcy of the Davis Company (around 1949 or 1950), this car was awarded to Rocky Mountain Region distributor, Blaine Evans, Of Golden, Colorado, along with Davis coupe #4, serial #482E49 (currently in 2010 AD owned by the Petersen Auto Museum in Los Angeles, along with Davis coupe # 482E129 (number theorized by me, Thomas J. Wilson, founder, Davis registry- based on design and engineering changes - car has missing serial # tag), and Davis military vehicle #494X2, the SECOND of three Davis military vehicles built. The Award to Evans, handed down by bankrupcy court in County of Los Angeles, California, was in recognition, of Evan's having been the largest single franchise purchaser, believed to be $25,000.00 in 1949 dollars! To the best of my knowledge, the "#12 car" is in Florida, purchased by its present owner in Colorado at an estate sale with its removable top missing. The Davis military vehicle, #494X2, was purchased by a Colorado military-vehicle collector, and once been featured in a mililtary-vehicle magazine. Davis coupe #13, was was purchased by me (Tom Wilson) in 1989 from Mr. Jerry Peters, who was executor for the Blaine Evans estate, and awarded this car for his services. I paid Jerry $5000.00 for the car, and tow-barred it to my home in Michigan with a 1978 Llincoln Versailles. The restoration of green #13 took place between 1989 and 1995 at my home in the Ypsilanti area of Michigan. The car is currently insured with Hagerty Insurance, of Traverse City, Michigan, for $67,000.00. It remains my most treasured historical automobile.

Oldsmobile 98, 1995, with 85,000 miles. Tom Wilson,

A photo album of the life and resurrection of the American Metal Products car, (or AMP CAR), built and submitted to Kaiser-Frazer in 1948, which resulted in the design and production of Kaiser's "Henry J" model. Why not learn more about Henry J. cars and the Kaiser-Frazer Owner's club? go to: http://members.tripod.com/~ben1937/kfoci.htm tw....... Update, October 22, 2005: Final painting has begun...go to last page! Update, Nov. 14, 2005 = All of the panels are painted, albeit with some really bad runs on the fenders and doors, likely due to inadequate lighting and zealous carelessness on the part of the AMPster "director." Further sanding is being done on the two rear fenders, the worst panels, and they are almost ready to be reprimed and painted again. VALUABLE LESSON: Don't try to paint more than about two panels at a time - (but have another one prepped and ready to paint in case I have too much paint left in the gun - this stuff has a short "pot life!" tjw.....CHATROOM FOR THIS PROJECT IS: - -- (Because of an insideous recurring spam advertisement, the chatroom for this site has been changed to ; http://www.theautochannel.com/cgi/chatengine?chatname=bigrigs&Submit=Go+there%21&frame=frameset ).. - June 2, 2006, Except for interior wall and door upholstery and headliner, and some horn switch troubleshooting and a few other minor details, the AMP car is done today. Further work will have to be done at a later time, as time, parts, and finances become available. It has been seven long years, and many other projects await my attention. Thanks for visiting the AMP Car Project site!!
