Equipment
44 cubic inch CIBA sohc engine, 26.5hp, 3-speed, heater, radio, rear deck mounted spare, side curtains, top, doors, drum brakes.
Condition
Old but sound paint, interior, top and chrome. Fully equipped. Lightly road grimy chassis and engine compartment. Restored to the mediocre standards appropriate to a Crosley's value, then driven but still a wonderful little piece of history.
Market commentary
I'm still looking for a COBRA-engined Crosley, and for one that retained the troubled but innovative Hydra-disc aircraft-style disc brakes. Even among fullsize cars Crosley can claim many innovations (like the disc brakes) and is capable of being tuned up to produce Abarth-level performance from its little engine. This is a sound and complete Hot Shot Super Sport and it deserved most if not all of the price it received.
