Talking Wally's Globtrotter????

There is a '63 Globetrotter on ebay that the seller says "could be Wally Byam's own from what I am told by the movie vehicle company I purchased her from". Did Wally have a '63 Globtrotter? The old number on it appears to be 8488. I would expect him to have a MUCH lower number. What does everyone think? Was it Wally's?

Wally died July 22, 1962.

Sounds like a sales pitch to me.

Based on that picture, I think it'd be easy to determine whether or not it was Wally's... just look in the closet for 2 dozen tiny t-shirts that belonged to those naked natives.
