You might try the Tulare County Historical Society, the keeper of the car:

Tulare County Historical Society
P.O. Box 295
Visalia, CA 93279
(559) 752-3318

It has a historical display at at Mooney Park on the south side of Viaslia: Tulare County Museum, 27000 S. Mooney Boulevard, Visalia, CA 93279,
(209) 713-6166

Information on the museum, etc. can be found at: http://www.caohwy.com/y/ytulmuse.htm

I saw the car a few years ago and may have taken a slide or two of it. It is located inside the compound with historic buildings and vehicles that is entered through the museum. Inside the museum there is a 1/2" scale model of the caboose and the electric engine that once pulled it; these were made by a local resident years ago. Also inside were other artifacts and photos of the VE.
