In December 2017, the original color of Tucker 1044 was discovered by Rob Ida, Mike Tucker and Sean Tucker at Ida Automotive in Morganville, New Jersey. Motor House Media documented the discovery in this one-minute video.

The six Vanderbilt Cup Races held on Long Island from 1904 to 1910 were the greatest sporting events of their day, and the first international automobile road races held in the United States. The races had a far-reaching impact on the development of American automobiles and parkways. This site provides comprehensive information on the races, the Long Island Motor Parkway and current Long Island automotive events, car shows and news.

Tuckers were available in six colors Black # 100, Waltz Blue # 200, Andante Green # 300, Beige # 400, Pearl Gray # 500 and Maroon #600.
There were only Eight Green Tuckers painted at the factory.
Tucker # 1044 Looks amazing in it’s original Color, Andante Green.
If I was to go to a Tucker Dealership today, I would order one in Andante green with a Green cloth interior.
