Equipment
Kerosene lights, top, rear seat with folding footrest, center tiller steering.
Condition
Essentially completely original and complete, with scant evidence of even minor touchup or repair. Firmly dated 1903 by both the engine number and several mechanical features like the roller drive chain, bolted differential and finned cooling tubes.
Market commentary
'Do no harm' should be the mantra of the new owner of this exceptionally complete and preserved Oldsmobile. It will need thorough mechanical recommissioning but then should be ready to join the London to Brighton parade next fall. It brought a sound price for what it is, and for what it will do.
