He had it in Bakersfield, to be precise. And if I recall a photograph in Look magazine correctly, it was a station wagon.

I could be wrong but I think it was a vehicle equipped with railroad wheels, like the ones railroad officials used in the '60s.

The Look photo showed him on the Oil City Branch, just north of Bakersfield.
