He later opened and operated an Auburn Sales Outlet with his son Melvin as General Manager, the pair also founded a wooden handle plant capable of making up to 10,000 handles per day. According to Auburn Historian Randy Ema it was not unusual for Auburn Customers to become small dealers. with the requirement being as few as 3 cars being purchased up front. The Schulz's kept the car until 1950 when it was sold to Mr. Archie Becker, who kept the car until 1992. Mr. Becker always wanted to restore the car but passed away before being able to do so. The car was sold to Dr. John Flannery who commissioned a ground up body off restoration with completion in 1998. The current caretaker purchased the car from Dr. Flannery in 2008 so this car has only had 4 owners from new! Extensive research and documentation has been assembled by the current owner, including a very rare original build sheet, and the car has been shown at various Concours and used on Regional Tours under their care. This car has won awards everywhere it has been shown. Its a CCCA Premier Car, an AACA Senior First Prize Winner, ACD Senior First Prize as well as Best Auburn in 1998, and has won many Prestigious Awards at notable Concours. The car is ACD Certified.

Under current ownership, the following has been performed- Both Carburators Rebuilt, New Coils, Points and Ignition System, Rebuilt Steering Box, Rebuilt Master Cylinder, Rebuilt Water Pump, Installed correct Starter, New Correct Running Board Rubber, and New Tires. This car runs without fault and is timed perfectly. The car really needs nothing mechanically and is ready for the road!
