Blind Items Revealed #41

April 20, 2022

It disappeared sixty years ago, never to be seen or heard from again. It seems pretty difficult to lose a car from a sealed boxcar on a train, but that is what happened. The car could never be sold whole, because it was worth much more to the owner to sell individual parts from the car. If the car stayed in the public eye, then there would be only four tires that could be sold. If it was out of the public eye, he could sell as many tires as he could find that would fit the car. 

There was so much selling of not original parts to the car, that it was also hard to keep track of the curse. Hidden car and hidden parts make the curse tracking tough, at least from the outside. There was a receipt book of sorts that was kept for many years which registered the original parts and who bought them. When possible, those parts were tracked through future buyers and sellers. 

One of the parts that was tracked ended up in the car of this now dead A- list mostly movie actor. The part was small, more decorative than anything. The question is where is that part now and where is the list of the sold original parts so the curse can be tracked.
