This 13 Cadillac includes: Restored from very crisp, low mileage original car Rebuilt engine, water pump, new timing chain, brakes and kingpins 25" restored wheels with all new wood by Amish Reproduction of original gas tank but in stainless steel Newly made radiator that keeps the car cool

1911 Chalmers, Pony Tonneau Converted to two pedal operation including full electrical system with: Starter Alternator Turn signals Headlights New stainless gas tank Dual Delco ignition New rear brakes & drums. Body sheeted in steel so the paint won’t crack. New horsehair stuffed leather upholstery with matching green carpet and linoleum. New tires and every part rebuilt for care-free touring. Sport model so she`s low enough to go under seven foot garage door.

This 50 HP 1912 Speedwell has a 5x5 (393 cubic inch) engine and a 3 speed transmission. Not modified, very correct --- including correct brass. Factory equipped with presto-lite starter. Needs engine work

This 1908 National, Model 9-40 is a Big and Powerful 7 passenger touring car with a 40 hp ball bearing main engine. One of only a few pre-1910 Nationals left. Not an assembled car. Twice "Best of Class" Concours winner and one time "Favorite American Car" winner.

This rare 1915 Peerless 48HP Touring Car is still in the ownership of the original family. Purchased new by a major PA cigar manufacturer. He kept it until his passing in 1933. It was then stored until 1963 when inherited by his great grandson and stored again for 40 years. Original speedometer shows only 24,500 miles.

how'd I find it? One of the sellers found that I'd posted a gallery on his 1912 Regal http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2011/05/1912-regal-underslung.html and used the link to my photos instead of taking his own. Oh well, so much for getting a thanks from that guy, but it's nice to be appreciated for the post.

this might be a score, or a money pit. No idea. I bet his reserve is 100k

For sale 1966 charger funny car, this the first year for the fiberglass flopper body, this body was made by Fiber Glass Limited in Stone Park, Illinois. With what I have researched they have only made 11 bodies in 66. These bodies were originally made with a 1 piece nose, two doors and the body. I don't know the history of this car, all the parts you see in the pictures came with the car. Things I do know about the parts, the block is a 64 426 hemi and the heads are 65 Aloca K-Heads, the block has been machined and ready for assembly, the block has been repaired but has been pressured tested good, the heads looked in very poor condition. I had the heads completely re-freshed with new seats and stainless valves. I have crank, rods, and misc. parts for engine. I have torqueflight, tranz and the rear end is an olds with 488 spool and Mickey Thompson case. Also I have the frame that came with the car which is included in the auction but would not have been original to the car.

Any Questions call Randy (626) 297-9230
