Topper Movie Car

OlChev · 2004-01-17T16:21:25.000Z

I am trying to locate any information on the "Topper" movie car. It is my understanding that the car was built using a 1937 Buick but there is some debate as to what series was used. Some feel it was a 40 series, but the photographs I have of the car seem to be larger than a 40, perhaps even an 80.Any thoughts?The body was built by Bohman & Schwartz in Pasadena, if any information exists on the body modifications, it would be helpful as well.Finally, I was told that the car still exists, I would love to contact the current owner if anybody know it's whereabouts.Thank you for the help,Kevin Marsh

Kevin, I have "Topper Returns" and it's a great movie. I didn't realize there was a topper "car". How many of the moves was it used in? There is a car chase and several other good car scenes in Topper Returns but it's been a while since I've watched it and I don't remember the makes. I'll have to pull it out and watch this weekend.

Hello, I am posting in these forums because I have some essential information on the topper car. There has been some incorrect information as to the current owner and other facts about the car. I am in contact with the true current owner of the Topper Car and we may be auctioning this car or making it available for purchase in the near future. Please e-mail me if you are interested, I can furnish you any further information you need on this famed Topper Movie Car. My e-mail address is diamondlon@hotmail.com

Thank you
