FS 1917 Briscoe

Selling 1917 Briscoe B-4-24. has been in my family since 1967. The car was a good original car with only an early 1960's repaint. The upholstery is original and quite useable. Top is from the mid-60's and should be cleaned or replaced. The Briscoe has the unusual crown shaped radiator, gas, and crank hole caps as well as the hubcaps. It needs just a little TLC to get back on the road but a very rare and worthy car. With so many memories of the car I want it to go to a good loving home. Asking only $9800. Located in Lake Mills, WI USA. Please email me, Thomas Edfors, for additional information and numerous photos at edfors@charter.net.

Did you sell it ?

Try to find a fellow named John Truman Briscoe.  I sold him a Briscoe V-8 way in blazes back in 1974.  He was is the navy then, and put the car into some sort of storage that ended up damaging it, in a good If I remember correctly.  I haven't heard of the car in years.  Sorry I can't do better for you.

Thanks so much for the tip!!! I think I found him. Is that car red? What sort of damage was done to it? Was it fixed? Thanks again George Albright 

Forgot to ask: what condition was the engine in when you sold it to him? Did it run ok? Thanks George
