Tucker 1021’s new home at the Martin Automobile Museum in Glendale, Arizona
An update following the recent sale of Tucker #1021 at the Mecum, Kissimmee auctions.

At the Mecum auctions in Kissimmee Florida two weeks ago, Tucker #1021 sold for an impressive $1.7 million.
The purchaser turned out to be the Martin Auto Museum and Event Center in Glendale, Arizona.
The Martin Auto Museum decided to place 1021 display right out in front as the Tucker has quickly become one of their most prized possessions.
The car sits in front of all others on a turntable for guests to see every angle of the beautiful and historic Tucker.
Bryan Stanley, from Facebook's Tucker '48 Automobile page has provided an update on the new display with photos and video. Here, the turntable arrives in pieces.
The spot chosen in the museum. Did anyone spot the movie 'Tucker The Man and his Dream' playing on the monitors to the right?
Subflooring for the turntable
The turntable assembled and placed in the spot of honor as a perfect match for the rare, 1-of-4 black painted Tuckers.

Congrats to the Martin Auto Museum and Event Center in Glendale, Arizona on their purchase and beautiful display!
