George Albright Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Dear Friends. I just acquired this circa 1906-08 Tourist Model K two cylinder automobile,made in Los Angeles,California,by the Automobile Vehicle Manufacturing Company. Either 88 or 90 inch wheelbase. It will be at my home in Ocala,Fla. for examination in about a week. Purchased from the original family that bought it new,in Newhall,California! The frame/running gear,axles appear complete and nice. Also includes the two cylinder motor,planetary transmission,radiator,steering column and box,coil box,carb,etc. Two doors but no body parts or seats. Only two fenders,maybe a front and a back. I would like to get this neat piece of California history back together. Anyone who has some extra parts,or knows of some,please contact me. Scanned copies of photos,literature,etc. appreciated. Sincerely George Albright,Ocala,Fla. Email: gnalbright@gmail.com cell weekdays 10-4 EST please: 352 843 1624. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trimacar Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 (edited) Wow, very interesting project but worthwhile, luck on finding parts! Edited August 29, 2015 by trimacar (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Albright Posted August 30, 2015 Author Share Posted August 30, 2015 According to the HCCA Horseless Carriage Club Registry,there are around 8 of these known to the HCCA. Since I was asked,I would reluctantly sell the project for around $19,000. George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
