Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Six cylinder 750 cubic inch engine, double chain driveWhite tires, oval bolster tank, dual rear mounted spares, no windshield or weather equipment. Excellent paint. Made up from a few old parts and factory drawings to reproduce a long lost relic of early American racing history, built for the Vanderbilt Cup race.

Market commentary

The experience of driving this Thomas will be life altering and it may have some potential as a vintage race and tour car. Dating authentication will be difficult to attain, but if it can be acquired theres a place for it in the London to Brighton Veteran Car Run where its dating will be a late starter, but its performance will be an early finisher. The seller should be grateful to get this much for it even though the cost of creating it may be much more that what was realized. A few details (like step plates to get in an out) will be appreciated.
