      Alden Holmes i don’t think that you are aware of the fact that Al Capone actually ran Chicago for a solid decade. Al Capone ran a vast empire of criminals nationwide which also conducted business internationally. Al Capone knew no borders. They never actually caught Al Capone for any of his horrific crimes. The Feds got Al Capone for millions of dollars in tax evasion and that was when he was finally convicted and sent to prison. Al Capone had multiple armoured vehicles. They all are real. They all were his cars. They were painted to resemble police vehicles which were green and black at the time. These armoured cars were expensive to craft and the two surviving ones in museums today both have the registry paperwork that dates back to Al Capone. Cheers!

Clearly you are an idiot Mr GayLord, so your opinion has zero relevance. You should probably go and educate yourself before you ever open your mouth again.

    The car depreciated just by removing the bullet proof glass and also restoring it . Instead of 750000 it would have gone for at least 1.5 million.

    I'm pretty sure Al Capone didn't have an armored V8. It wouldn't have been powerful enough to move the added weight. It might have been a V12 but was more likely a V16. In 1928 they had such things.

      The car only has about 90 HP and weighed 5 or 6 tons. My uncle was the one who removed the amor from it back in 1959 when he brought it back to North America from England. He never restored the inside or changed the glass-someone else did that. I have ridden in that car back in 1960. I was only 7 years old and knew about Capone, but I would be more interested in it today. I have a scale model of it.
