(KAIR)--A stolen car, once owned by Amelia Earhart, has been recovered.

CBS News is reporting that the 1932 green and black Hudson Essex Terraplane disappeared Friday while it was being stored in a trailer, secured with a safety lock, in an industrial complex located in Orange, California.

The car's owner, Jim Somers, said the car was being prepared for an auto show on Saturday.

CBS News reports the car, one of only 14 models known to exist, was located Monday night in Los Angeles.

The vehicle is valued between $250,000 and $500,000.

According to The Orange County Register, Earhart was asked to promote the car during the great depression.
