I dont know..
but I doubt any original fixtures remained in the car anyway..
probably all were removed decades ago..

I think the car was fairly well gutted long before it was scrapped..

Please don't think that anyone allowed a museum exhibit to go to waste... this car was a shell and was going to need some extensive work to be brought back to life. Anything of value like you describe was removed a long, long time ago.
