I guess that you could call these the "Uber Gazelle!" In a way, this might be what later kit Mercedes were trying to copy. These were the work of Brooks Stevens, and the prototype was Studebaker based. I think one reason I like them is they make me think of Briggs Cunningham's Bu-Merc!

couple of photos...Looks like a fun car but I wonder about support for these early Buicks

I always wonder about cars that are for sale for years. Obviously, it's a wrong price, but do they actually want to sell? Doesn't seem so. If that's the case, why bother?

I know... "Neoclassic" cars like the Clenet make me think of Liberace, but I have to admit the very first Excaliburs (like this), have some appeal.

I don't know about the price given the "custom work" but these definitely have a following, and are reportedly a lot of fun to drive.

The best of all circa 50s pick ups in my opinion. Seems like a very good deal if as represented.

Seems pretty close to "too good to be true" territory.

I always thought it was the ozone that wrecked the rubber. I remember a 6th grade science experiment where we took an old pair of Mom's panty hose and put them over a bent up coat hanger in the back yard. In about 2 or 3 weeks they fell apart. I supposed the UV could have been a big part of that as well. I'd run the experiment again now, to see if all the clean air regulations have made a difference, but I don't think the required materials are readily available anymore! I due believe (based on my old Nordic skin) there is more UV now.

No interior or engine pics https://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv/cto/d/van-nuys-1949-cadillac-for-sale/7731655458.html I've had this car for about 10 years, with the intention of restoring it but unfortunately too busy with work that I can't keep holding on to it. The car has a clean tittle, it has all original parts and motor but it does not run. It does need interior and a paint job. This car is a project car. Please only serious inquiries. Thank you!

I don't understand why the wheels are covered like it's being painted.

Oh Yes...drum headlights. I think your guess of '25 is probably good. I hope who ever bought it brings in back to life in some way. the good news from our point of view is there isn't enough there to "hot rod".

If the engine is free this might be something....(more pics and text in ad) https://bakersfield.craigslist.org/cto/d/sun-valley-1940-hudson-delux-art-deco/7732608414.html I'm selling my father's rare beautiful project car. Came from original owner in lifetime was owned by one family very well kept. Car is 99% solid no rust was parked inside the garage over 30 years there is no penalties on this car clean frame clean title clean VIN. It has all the original rims with the clips and it has all the interior pieces and it has all the knobs and switches on the dashboard even for the radio including the original steering wheel this is a matching numbers car with the original engine and transmission and it's a bull because the rear windows roll down.

I like it a lot, but those shiny valve covers make the rest of the engine compartment look bad.

I've never seen this double spring front suspension before and I'm not at all sure it would be a performance advantage. Also those blocked out faces remind me of my mother's "True Detective" magazines from the 50's where black bars often appeared across the faces of people supposedly doing evil deeds! https://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/d/moraga-1915-ford-model-speedster/7732543033.html This 1915 original Speedster is a true testament that car enthusiasts are always trying to figure out how to make cars go faster - even over 100 years ago. During the early era of Ford Model T’s, racers would lighten their cars by stripping everything but the seats off the car, add a circular windshield, and attempt to stiffen the suspension. This car has all that and more including extra parts. Runs well (for a 109 year old car) and creates smiles and waves wherever it is driven. I am happy to start and drive the car for serious buyers with cash but there will be no “test drives” as these cars have very different controls than modern day cars. (same rule applied when I bought it). Hard to assign a price to the car - in my mind it’s priceless - only selling because I bought another antique race car and have no more room. Happy to take offers higher or lower depending on interest and won’t work with anyone looking for lowball deals. email: 64d35f36320932639a84387b56b98731@sale.craigslist.org (Chat feature also available through the listing)

from the Pre-War car website: (pretty nice shop clothes!...and how many jack stands are there? ) We're inside Malcolm Campbell’s workshop in Surrey in 1928, with the man himself proudly leaning on the workbench in full knickerbocker glory. Campbell was London’s Bugatti concessionaire, so he must have driven quite a few examples of France’s finest in England. Is this the 1926 Type 35 he is said to have owned privately?

I'm an hour North of San Francisco in a farm town where the tallest building is a grain elevator. The local Chevy dealer gets $220 an hour and a grand daughter is working at In-n- Out Burger. She gets $22.50/hr.

Appears to be a 4 cylinder so probably a '28, but I know there was a larger version of the 4 cylinder motor so perhaps it remained in production for commercial use in '29.

Looks like a very impressive car at a reasonable price to me!

Why would anyone thing those photos were adequate?

I think I know that guy too!

Ha! Good catch...you can't pull a fast one on this forum!

looks like some of the hardest parts (wood) are done.
