Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Black painted acetylene headlights, kerosene sidelights and taillight, bulb horn, bolster seat and oval bolster tank, monocle windshield, White painted wood spoke wheels, blackwall tires. Sound old restoration with mediocre cosmetics (at best). A usable tour car but nothing more. Gerald Sichel Collection. No Reserve.

Market commentary

The intriguing history of Metz with its installment plan assembly by owners contributes a lot to its appeal. Maybe not this much, however, which is a lot for a 22hp kit car in this usable but not exceptiol condition.
