This Limousine is one of six built by Armbruster-Stageway Coach Builders in 1969. This one was commissioned by Chrysler Corporation for Bob Hope's use during the year he was filming commercials in Hollywood for Chrysler Corporation. This limo transported Mr. Hope from Palm Springs to Los Angeles and back on the days he was filming. After the years contract was fulfilled, this limo was sold to Barker Motors a Chrysler dealer, in Eugene, Oregon. It was purchased from Barker's in 1980 and has been with the same owner since then.
The six limousines built by Armbruster were 30 inch stretches. they have glass dividers, rear facing companion seats behind the divider, center bar console with a decanter and six glasses, rear radio and heat/air controls.
This limousine was used in livery service in Oregon from 1980 until 1983. It has been in storage ever since.
