Prototype 1969
# 276579 P 147588
This is the very first Stutz
Blackhawk.
Most press-photos of early Stutzes
show exactly that car.
You can have a look at the early
Blackhawk
sales sheet or the small
folder.
The Stutz-founder drove this car.
Mr. James D. O'Donnell bought on October, 1st, 1968
the Pontiac Grand Prix,
that was converted to the very first "New Stutz"
In late 2002, the brother of
the Stutz founder sold the car to Mr. Greg Ryckman.
Mr. Ryckman has owned several
other Stutzes before he bought this dream,
the very first Stutz that was
ever built...
In 2004, the car was listed at
an auction.
In July 2004, I was contacted
by the new owner of the car, Mr. B. Kavcic.
So the car still is in Canada,
but:
he brought the car to the Stutz
Meet 2004!
It was great to see this fascinating
car...
