Description:
This 1954 Chrysler New Yorker was owned by Howard Hughes, who's legendary germ-phobia is evident by the large interior air-filtration device that takes up the entire trunk.

...think I remember seeing this pop up on the Barrett-Jackson auction once... one of the few truly interesting cars they've had, rather than the conga line of numbers-matching-rotisserie-restored-only-one-with-these-89-different-options muscle cars.

#1, I remember it too. Never knew what was so special about it other than the Hughes ownership.

The Crosley fire truck was one of the more interesting vehicles I've seen come across the block, too.

Amusingly they sold another one, two years older, this year - for about $80,000 less.
