8 cylinders, 3,500 cc
(US Made), collection of Boedi Sampoerna
Liem Seeng Tee bought this limousine in 1941 for 8,000 Dutch
Guilders.
At that time, it was one of only three such cars in Indonesia.
The family
used this car until 1942. During the Japanese occupation,
Liem Seeng
Tee was put in jail and his assets, including this car, were
seized.
In 1976, Boedi Sampoerna, the eldest grandson of Liem Seeng
Tee,
found this car in Malang, a city about 1.5 hours drive from Surabaya.
He bought it back and it has since become a precious collection
of his.
