Where is it written that Errol received this car from Henry. It just doesn’t sound right to me

I cannot say it’s true, twinarchers, only that it’s been said, which is why I put the title in quotes. I have no independent evidence for the claim, which has apparently been made for many years.

In addition to references in the links above, here are a couple more. I get the feeling this claim of Errol’s ownership has been known for years in elite auto collection circles. True or not I cannot say.

There is zero proof that Errol Flynn owned this car. It was a roller that never had an engine until it was restored. How di he drive it without an engine?
