Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD, dual rear spares, Chalmers acetylene headlights by Solar, Prest o lite tank and regulator, Castle kerosene sidelights, Solar kerosene taillight, Stewart speedometer, rim wind clock, varnished wood spoke wheels. Sound, presentable and very usable older restoration showing age but little use and careful maintenance. Good cosmetics but brass is spotty and a thorough detailing is in order.

Market commentary

Sold at the Gooding auction in Scottsdale in January for $60,500 and resold hereof a modest but satisfactory profit. Both the buyer and the seller came out OK. There was some B.S. in the catalog about this being a race car, but there was nothing to support it, nor was it necessary to support the value of the car.
