Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Tiller steering, Green wood spoke wheels, full length leaf springs with perch rods, kerosene lights. 2 cylinder double acting steam engine with poppet valves, chain drive. Once owned by Lenox Lohr and displayed at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry. An older restoration with an LP gas fired boiler last used in the Wisconsin New London New Brighton run in 2006. Leather finish is erratic but can be resolved with professiol attention. A great driver in veteran car tours. No Reserve.

Market commentary

A sweet little car, restored and updated to make it a great ride for tours with a history of ownership by some of Americas earliest exponents of car collecting back in the dim and distant days of the mid 20th century. It will be a mid pack starter in the London to Brighton Veteran Car Run and is attractive and reliable. A sound value at the price.
