According to the delivery ledger, Arnolt 252 was shipped on the SS Juliette with Arnolt coupes 254, 255 and 257, arriving in Chicago via the Great Lakes on August 26, 1953. The original customer was British Motor Sales (no delivery date given). Car was regularly driven for many years by K. Gregory's father in Las Vegas, with a Ford 289 V-8 engine, Ford 4-speed transmission and Ford differential. The firewall, pedals and sheet-metal were all modified to fit, a sway-bar and MGA disc brakes were added with after-market 4-lug wheels. The front seats were replaced with lightweight fiberglass shells. Other than the engine compartment and pedals, the car is otherwise quite complete, and the body is relatively unmolested.
