Dutch Schultz had this car custom-built with bullet-proof glass and reinforced siding to guard against a 'hit' by rival gangs or the police.
After Schultz' death in 1935 the car ended up in Al Capone's garage. After Capone was convicted of tax evasion the car was sold off by the federal government.
The car was never involved in a shoot-out. Instead the owner of the Primadonna Casino had his employees shoot it up behind the hotel, hoping to lend some mystique to it.
Bonnie and Clyde's car is located adjacent to the Lincoln in this same casino.
