A.K. Miller, a.k.a. Nutzy Stutzy, was an eccentric millionaire playboy pilot with a passion for Stutz cars and parts. Born to wealth but known as a skinflint miser in the mold of Ebenezer Scrooge, he collected Stutzes avidly, often squirreling them away in various barns on his property in Vermont. He bought this one in 1937 and stuffed it in a barn. Christies auctioned the whole lot in September of 1996, with some of the proceeds reportedly going to pay back taxes that A.K. “forgot.”
