five known surviving 836 coupes. While the car is currently fitted with a new serial number plate bearing number 2360225, the original serial number was 1071041, as noted in both the PAS rosters and in a handwritten note included on the file that also lists the engine number.

It is believed that the car was purchased from a Dr. Grant Pennoyer of New York City by William Crawford White, who later moved with it to Newtown, Connecticut. A service log on file records handwritten services from 1946 to 1953, and indicates that it was in the Cleveland, Ohio, area by that time. The car was registered in 1958 to Edward C. Dudley of Euclid, then to Marilyn H. Rockwood of nearby Parma, who sold it to fellow resident John P. Schlifer in April 1963. Mr. Schlifer owned the Pierce-Arrow for nearly 30 years before selling it to Robert Brown of Hinckley, Ohio, in July 1992. It was cosmetically and mechanically restored for its new owner by Shade Tree Motorcars of Medina; some invoices and photographs from the work are included in the history file. Mr. Brown retained the Pierce-Arrow for many years.

Further restoration work was undertaken for the present family of owners in 2022, with invoices on file for the cosmetic and mechanical sorting involved. Boldly eye-catching in its subtly metallic burgundy finishes, the car is accessorized with correct, pressed-steel artillery wheels, including dual side-mounted spares with hard covers and mirrors; dual driving lights; and an accessory trunk rack, aft of the rumble seat. The black interior nicely matches the padded roof, which is correct and gives the car a charming, convertible-like appearance.
