Originally ordered through a New York dealer, it was immediately shipped to Derham’s coachwork shop in Rosemont, Pennsylvania to be converted to the Town Car configuration it wears today. Derham had actually planned to build four of these Sixty Special Town Cars, but records indicate just two were completed before the outbreak of war ended automobile production prematurely in 1942. For an Imperial Sedan to become a Town Car, Derham significantly modified the Cadillac with an open driver’s compartment with occasional weather equipment, fitted a padded formal rear roof with small backlight, and retrimmed the rear interior compartment in luxurious Bedford Broadcloth upholstery. A separate radio for the rear passenger was also included as a “special request”.
