===Death car===
Jordan attempted to keep the death car, but Ruth Warren of [[Topeka, Kansas]], the vehicle's legal owner, sued him.<ref>Ramsey, p. 234</ref> Jordan relented and allowed her to claim it in August 1934, still covered with blood and human tissue.<ref>Knight and Davis, p. 197.</ref> The engine still ran, despite the damage the vehicle took during the ambush. Warren picked up the car in Arcadia and drove it to Shreveport, still in its gruesome state. From there, she had it trucked to Topeka.<ref>Ramsey, p. 272</ref>

The bullet-riddled Ford became a popular traveling attraction. The car was displayed at fairs, amusement parks, and flea markets for three decades, and once became a fixture at a Nevada race track. There was a charge of one dollar to sit in it.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.roadsideamerica.com/story/2894|title=Bonnie and Clyde's Death Car, Primm, Nevada|website=Roadside America|access-date=March 31, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190331025222/https://www.roadsideamerica.com/story/2894|archive-date=March 31, 2019|url-status=live}}</ref>

In 1988, a casino near Las Vegas purchased the vehicle for about $250,000 (equivalent to ${{Inflation|US|250000|1988|fmt=c}} in {{Inflation/year|US}}). {{as of|2024}}, the car and the shirt Barrow was wearing when killed are displayed behind a glass panel at Buffalo Bill's Resort & Casino in [[Primm, Nevada]] alongside [[Interstate 15]].<ref>{{cite web |last=Lane |first=Taylor |date=24 March 2024 |title=How the 'Bonnie and Clyde Death Car' ended up in Primm |url=https://www.reviewjournal.com/local/local-nevada/how-the-bonnie-and-clyde-death-car-ended-up-in-primm-3019565/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240624144046/https://www.reviewjournal.com/local/local-nevada/how-the-bonnie-and-clyde-death-car-ended-up-in-primm-3019565/ |archive-date=June 24, 2024 |access-date=June 24, 2024 |website=Las Vegas Review Journal}}</ref>

Barrow's enthusiasm for cars was evident in a letter he wrote from [[Tulsa, Oklahoma]] on April 10, 1934, to [[Henry Ford]]: "While I still have got breath in my lungs I will tell you what a dandy car you make. I have drove Fords exclusively when I could get away with one. For sustained speed and freedom from trouble the Ford has got every other car skinned and even if my business hasn't been strictly legal it don't hurt anything to tell you what a fine car you got in the V-8." There are some doubts as to the authenticity of the letter.<ref>{{cite web |title=Letter from Clyde Barrow to Henry Ford Praising the Ford V-8 Car, 1934 – The Henry Ford Organization|url=https://www.thehenryford.org/collections-and-research/digital-collections/artifact/281082/ |website=www.thehenryford.org |access-date=April 11, 2022 |language=en}}</ref>
