The car is a 1922 Wills Ste. Claire A-68 Roadster that underwent a Harrah's Gold Star restoration. While the paint, trim, interior, and top are described as excellent for their age, there is some paint aging. The engine is dirty with fluid leakage, despite being drained for display. Most significantly, there is substantial damage to the intake manifold water jacket due to metal worm, described as a 'big hole' and 'dysfunctional residue'. This requires substantial reconditioning and repair.

CLAIRE A-68 Childe Harold Wills, a practical engineer whose mother read Byron's epic poetry, was a draftsman in Ford's first car-building venture.

Wills rejoined Ford in 1903 at the inception of the Ford Motor Company becoming, to all intents and purposes Ford's first chief engineer.

Wills was noted for his careful engineering and particularly for the emphasis he placed upon development and use of high strength materials for reliability and weight reduction.

Extensive use of vanadium alloy steel is credited with much of the T's reputation for toughness, and the material's advocate within Ford was Wills.
