Miles New Member Registered: 07/22/08 Posts: 2	A recent auction in Australia advertised for sale a Torbensen 1902 model single cylinder, 3 seat tourer. Can anyone tell me any further information about this marque including where I might find further information and whether there might be owners of other examples of this vehicle that I could contact?

Bob Kerr Member Registered: 01/19/08 Posts: 54 Loc: Hymera, Indiana	My 1923 Olds truck has Torbensen front and rear axles as standard equipment. I didn't know they made cars. My rear axle has a 1908 patent date on it. _________________________ Bob Kerr 1923 Olds Economy 1 ton grain truck, 1924 Olds Model 30B Sport Touring, 1907 Olds 3HP hit and miss engine,28 Chevy 1 ton Truck, 49 Chevy 3/4t truck, 1935 Farmall F12, 48 Farmall, M 51 Farmall H. 70 Olds 442 4speed convert.
