Thread drift: Has anyone toured the Patton Museum at Chiriaco Summit in California, on I-10 between Palm Springs and the AZ border?

I stopped there last October for gas but did not have time to tour.

It appears that this same vehicle may have been up for auction once before; however there is no direct documentation specifically linking it to Patton. As such, bid as you may!

I would think that if it was Patton’s actual vehicle it would be in a US Army museum somewhere, like the sedan in the Patton Museum at Fort Knox.
