THE AUBURN AUTOMOBILE COMPANY CLOSED ITS DOORS IN 1937. THE COMPANY'S REMAINING PARTS WERE SOLD TO DALLAS WINSLOW IN
1938. THE AUBURN - CORD - DUESENBERG COMPANY THEN OPERATED AS A SERVICE, PARTS AND RESTORATION COMPANY. THE ACD COMPANY WOULD CONTINUE TO OPERATE IN THAT MANNER UNTIL SOLD TO GLENN PRAY FROM OKLAHOMA.
ONCE THE ACD COMPANY WAS MOVED TO OKLAHOMA, IT CONTINUED TO SELL PARTS AND DOING RESTORATIONS.
IT WAS NOT LONG AFTER THAT, THEIR ATTENTION WAS TURNED TO BUILDING A MODERNIZED VERSION OF THE 1935/851 - 1936/852 AUBURN SPEEDSTER.
THE ORIGINAL BODY WAS DISASSEMBLED AND USED TO MAKE MOLDS FOR THE NEW BODY. THE BODY WAS THEN MODIFIED TO BE INSTALLED ON TO A MODERN FORD CHASSIS. THE NEW AUBURN WAS MADE AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC IN 1968
