1941 Cadillsc 62 Convertible Sedan

 

1941 Cadillac Convertible Sedan In my opinion, the 1941 Cadillac is the ultimate tour car for CCCA Events.

It has plenty of power with its 346 cid L-head V-8 engine mated to a smooth 3 speed manual transmission. The independent front suspension with coil springs, plus the rear semi-eliptic leaf springs riding on a 126 inch wheelbase, supply a smooth and stable ride. This particular Cadillac has been in my hometown (St. Louis) since new. It was owned by the Lindburg family for over 50 years. I remember seeing it in their Cadillac Showroom in the 1960’s. I purchased the Cadillac almost 8 years ago and have enjoyed it on many great outings. Notice that radio pre-set radio stations are all St. Louis stations—some still in business. The maroon paint was in fantastic condition –it was applied at Lindburg Cadillac back in the ‘60s. The tan leather is also in great condition. I replaced the black hartz cloth top in 2013 as well as adding new wide white radial tires for safe driving. Come drive it and you will agree. Priced at $87,500.

1932 Packard 902 Coupe Roadster

In 1932, Packard introduced its new lineup, including this ninth series Coupe Roadster. It was longer, lower,faster and more refined then previous models, due in part to the double drop frame. Personally, I think the Series 902 with body style 509 was and is one of the prettiest designs of the era. The new top design allowed it is fold flat to the body, enhancing the flow of the body lines. This Packard was owned by the same family for over four decades. It recently had the complete interior, top, carpets, rumble seat refinished at a very well known restoration shop. The dash was also removed along with the engine and transmission to be totally rebuilt as new. All of the work is documented in pictures. The only thing left to do is the paint, as it is thin and old. Please call with any questions.

1930 Cord L-29 Phaeton

1930 Cord L-29 Phaeton Introduced in the summer of 1929, the new Cord L-29 was a huge hit in the luxury car segment. It paced the Indy 500 that year with its standard 298cid L-head 8 cylinder engine. The L-29 was produced for a short four year run, as it was introduced with the Great Depression just beginning. Only 1,168 Phaetons were built—that was 20 percent of Cords total production. All were equipped with a three speed transmission,innovative front wheel drive and inboard front brakes. That gave the Cord a low stance along with the first X frame, offered on a motorcar. This Cord was in long term display at a private museum and is ACD certified. It is roadworthy and drives nicely. Finished in deep blue with contrasting tan leather it is stunning. Every collection should include an ACD automobile. CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFORMATION

1903 Thomas 18

The car belonged to Henry Janssen of Buffalo, NY for many years. He bought it from a museum in Buffalo when it closed. It was a very original and complete car when Henry bought it. He began to do some restoration on the wood of the body and re-wooded the wheels. Henry enjoyed the Thomas for the rest of his years.  His estate sold the Thomas to a collector in the State of Washington where it had a complete restoration and was finished in 2005. It was shown at a few local Concours shows and driven about 300 miles in Single Cylinder Tours, including completing the Single Cylinder Touring Registry Tour in LaConner, Washington. There are 2 other existing examples of this car known The first year of production for Thomas was 1903. It powered by a single cylinder 8 hp engine with 106.3 cu.inch displacement. This rear entrance tonneau with a 3 speed progressive transmission, leather cone clutch, 28 x 3 wheels, geared water pump, and chain drive is as new. When restored, every part was fitted with new bearings , polished and balanced the crank and flywheel, rebushed portions of the transmission, rebuilt the rear end, new tires, new black leather upholstery, etc. The brass lamps were done by Rick Britten and the single self generating head light is correct for the car and the only one known to exist. The Thomas starts on the first or second pull, runs and drives very nicely and is very reliable. Eligible for the London Brighton Tour for sure !!!

1941 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible Sedan

In my opinion, the ’41 Cadillac is the ultimate tour car. It has plenty of power with its 346 cid L-head V-8 mated to a smooth 3 speed manual transmission, independent front suspension with coil springs, and rear semi-elliptic leaf springs. In addition, it is equipped with hydraulic drum brakes. The 126 inch wheelbase makes the ride smooth and firm. This ’41 has had a charmed life.

1936 Packard Super-8 Coupe Roadster

 Specifications: Series 1404, 150bhp 384.4 cu.in. L-head, straight eight engine, three-speed selective synchromesh transmission, semi-elliptic suspension, four-wheel mechanical brakes. Wheelbase: 139"

 In 1936 the Packard Eight, Super Eight and Twelve continued to be built on an individually separate basis. The bodies on the Super Eight and Twelves were interchangeable, wheelbase for wheelbase, with only the interior appointments being different. The bodies also continued to be constructed of wood and steel.

 For 1936, the entire Packard range underwent only minor revisions. The models were known as the Fourteenth Series as the number thirteen had been skipped, presumably for superstitious reasons. The Fourteenth Series was the last year for Bijur lubrication, ride control, a semi-elliptic suspension, mechanical brakes, heavy vibration dampening bumpers and the 384.4 cubic inch straight eight engine..

 The Super 8 was given the new sloped grille with chrome vertical bars that were actually thermostatically controlled shutters. The shutters would open and close automatically depending on the engine heat. The fender styling was altered slightly as were the hood vents and headlamp trim. Under the hood the only change was the new Delco-Remy ignition system.

 This highly original Packard Super 8 Coupe Roadster was the subject of an excellent restoration a few years back. Sold new by Alberta Packard in Calgary, Alberta, the history is of this fabulous Packard is known from new. Accessories include radio, heater, metal side mount covers, Senior bumpers, rumble seat,  etc. The elegance of this stylish, very original Packard is further enhanced by its chrome wire wheels.  It’s impressive condition today is due in large part to the fact that this Convertible Coupe has been well cared for and maintained.  All the parts were restored to meticulous condition to return the Convertible Coupe to its former glory.

.                The 1936 Packard Super 8 Convertible Coupe not only has style, but a real road presence. In the 1936 model year Packard built only 1,492 Super Eights, which also makes this a very rare and desirable model. This Packard starts and runs excellent.  It goes down the road with ease and is a pleasure to drive---Just Ask The Man Who Owns One!

1935 Bentley Royale Custom 16 Cylinder

 

In the words of its creator, master automobile conceptualist Gary Wales, this 1939 Bentley Royale is: “Everything in Excess, Nothing in Moderation.”

Roll-Royce and Bentley built automobiles of legendary strength and toughness. More than a few R-R and Bentley chassis were repurposed with immense engines and scanty bodies. Powered by surplus aircraft Merlin V12s and similar excess, they were called Speedcars, and they were all of that, thundering examples of the concept,  “When it comes to horsepower, too much is just right.”

Even among those fire-breathing monsters, though, Gary Wales’ creation of the Bentley Royale Coupe deVille is an order of magnitude better.

Based on Rolls-Royce and Bentley components from the Silver Ghost through the ’90, its coachwork is developed from an original Sedanca deVille body commissioned by airman and auto racer Whitney Straight, The frame is a 1938 Rolls-Royce Wraith.

The Bentley Royale’s  engine is a masterful construction consisting of two Rolls-Royce Phantom IV 5.75-Liter overhead valve Inline eight cylinder blocks with crankshafts geared together on a common crankcase, a design akin to Ettore Bugatti’s H-16 aircraft engine.

Constructed by Gary Wales with mechanical assembly by Andres Aranda, the Bentley Royale Coupe deVille is a masterpiece. A modern Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang, it has all the irrational thrills of nearly unlimited power that shakes the road and everything around it, wrapped in meticulously formed, finished and trimmed coachwork.

Vastly powerful but elegantly and comfortably bodied, the Bentley Royale Coupe deVille is on-of-a-kind, a statement of Ross-Royce Speedcar heritage and the Rolls-Royce and Bentley tradition of style, comfort and luxury.

Power Rack & Pinion Bentley T2 Steering

45 Different Dashboard Instruments and Switches

Carl Zeiss Headlamps.

5 Speed Rolls-Royce Experimental Gearbox

4” Exhaust with cutouts and Merlin-Style Manifolds.

Elaborate, Luxurious Interior Wood and Leather Appointments.

1921 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost Oxford Tourer

CHASSIS NO: 95MG

1921 Silver Ghost 40/50hp Oxford Tourer is a very early example of the Springfield-built Rolls-Royces. Its coachwork is known as the Oxford seven-passenger tourer, a catalog Rolls-Royce design built by its own Rolls-Royce Custom Coach Works. It is right hand drive with a 4-speed transmission in common with other early Springfield Rolls-Royces, had dual sidemounted spares, a covered luggage trunk, drum headlights, matching drum cowl lights and blackwall tires on body color centerlock wheel rims and hubs with stainless steel spokes.

 This exceptional Silver Ghost was the Thompson Automobile Company Trails car before it was delivered to J.G. McHenry, a Detroit attorney. Mr. McHenry sold the car to John S. Riggs of New York who in turn sold the car in 1948 to Barney Pollard. There are letters in the file from Mr. Riggs offering to have his chauffeur drive the car from New York to Mr. Pollard in Michigan. Barney Pollard was a well respected and diverse Midwestern collector of fine Rolls-Royce automobiles and at one time, his collection numbered near 1,200 cars. A section of his workshop remains dedicated to the care, maintenance, and restoration of numerous examples of the marque. Work performed under his care included the fitting of new stainless steel spokes on all the wheels as well as regular comprehensive maintenance to assure its continued silent and smooth running. It remained in the Barney Pollard Collection until its purchase by Robert B. Merrifield.

This early production Springfield Oxford tourer represents, one of, if not the most driver-friendly and easily maintained examples of any automobile built prior to the 1930's. This four owner car from new combines the desirability of a documented low-mile example with an original chassis, motor and body. It has recently undergone a complete repaint including the wheels as well as an engine and chassis detail.  Carefully maintained and exercised on short trips and at regional events, it presents unmatched motoring pleasure and cannot disappoint.

1956 Pontiac Safari Two-Door Station Wagon

As befits its rarity, this fine example has been the recipient of a thorough restoration, completed circa 2005. The wonderfully period colors of Sun Beige and Sandalwood Tan in which it is finished are those in which it was delivered from the factory in Wilmington, Delaware, as confirmed by the data plate. It also boasted the 'Comfort and Convenience package', including tissue dispenser, from new. Also displayed is a rare lighted 1956 Pontiac Hood Ornament!
  Engine is the 317cid V8, Pontiac Strat-o-Streak rated at 227hp and automatic transmission, which were both rebuilt. The speedometer was rebuilt at the time of restoration and shows less than 1,000 miles driven since restored. The original clock has been converted to quartz along with a upgraded radio, rebuilt power steering box, new Coker white wall tires, tissue dispenser, front bumper push bar, new dual exhaust ran correctly through the frame, fuel tank cleaned and reconditioned, brakes all rebuilt.  Since completion of the restoration this Safari has seen very limited use but has enjoyed regular and diligent maintenance.
 An interesting footnote to the history of this Safari is that it was once owned by Bob Shane, lead singer of 'The Kingston Trio'. A large binder of documentation including an original owner's manual and historical information accompanies the car, including a photo of the car during Shane's ownership, with his autograph.

1913 Cadillac Model 30

This fully restored example earned National First Place honors at the New England Region Cadillac-LaSalle show, held in Portsmouth, Rhode Island in 2008.

1969 Goggomobile 250

The Goggo Coupe was truly a remarkable little car. Although dwarfed by a VW Bettle in size, the interior room is amazing. In addition, there is a bench seat in the rear area for small children. The spacious interior sports a 4 speed floor shifter, an instrument cluster in front of the driver, and a tiny glove box for “gloves” or sunglasses. $27,500.00
A 293 c.c. air cooled 2 cycle engine in mounted in the rear and provides plenty of power for this 1014 pound micro car.  Fuel mileage exceeds 40 mpg and can be up to 47 mpg on the highway.  Therefore, the 6.6 gallon fuel tank is certainly not a handicap on the Goggo.   
This car is in excellent shape and can be shown with pride at any Concour Event—and probably he the “hit” of the Show—while getting lots of laughs at the same time.

1913 Peerless 48

FINALLY DONE AND READY TO SHOW.  This amazing huge Roadster has a great storied past.  
This massive Peerless is powered by a 49.6 hp, 577.5 cu. In. T-head six cylinder engine.
The wheelbase is a staggering 137 inches long.
This particular Peerless was actually used as a power source by the La Jolla Mining Company after its usefulness as an automobile was no longer needed.  It was driven to the mining operation over 90 years ago and destined to be a workhorse for the miners.
In 1965, the great Peerless was discovered by a helicopter pilot and friend of a Peerless Collector.  The entire story of the retrieval of the remains is described in a great story by the collector in 1966 after a huge helicopter and a team of 14 people retrieved the find.  (see picutre)
The story, in the HCC Gazette is fascinating to read.   Dubbed “The old man of the Mountain” the first restoration was 90 percent finished 15 years later.  After completion, the Peerless was shown at Pebble Beach in 1984.  It was then placed on long term display in a small mining museum until 2008. 
It is now totally restored and ready for the Show field again.

1953 Nash Healey LeMans Coupe

Production started in 1950 after a chance meeting of Donald Healey and Nash’s George Mason. The original car was steel, body by Panelcraft of England, chassis by Healey and engine by Nash. By 1952 the body was restyled by Pinn Farina and the chassis was special built by Healey. Nash upgraded the engine to develop 140 hp with its “LeMans Jetfire” overhead-valve inline six cylinder, dual carburetor creation. In 1953, with a longer wheelbase (108 inches), a coupe body was fashioned for the all aluminum main body. A tachometer, leather upholstery, and rear quarter windows made the Healey a true GT car rivaling Europe’s best. This Nash Healey was restored from an excellent original car and has been part of a private collection.
