Yes, I plan to. Hope to get it running in the next few weeks.

Sorry I haven't replied earlier - been a busy week. Very impressed you guys remembered this car from an auction almost 20 years ago - do you have photographic memories?? or were you interested in it? Yes, I was told this was sold at an Owl's Head auction around 2002, so it is the same car. It was a running, driving car when I bought it about 7 years ago, and I did drive it some after I bought it. I don't think it will be difficult to get running again - so it sounds like I should do that before trying to sell it. However,one of the reasons I want to sell it is that I have never got the knack of getting the spark adjusted to start it.... It is a 120" wheel base and I have included a couple pictures of the engine. Thanks for your help and information. I might post back looking for guidance on getting it started if I continue to have trouble with that - which I probably will!

I am looking for help determining an asking price for my 1919 Mitchell E40 5 Passenger Touring. It is very original and is in excellent unrestored condition. The odometer reads just shy of 23,500 miles which I think may be accurate as it was in storage from 1956 to 2002. In 2002, it was sold by the long time owner and a substantial amount of work done by the new owner to get it running and roadworthy again. I have not had the time to drive it and take to car shows like I planned to do and have decided it is time to pass it to someone who can enjoy it. Apparently there are very few Mitchells still in existence and therefore it is difficult to establish the value of one. I don't have any other experience with vehicles this old to draw on either. Any opinions,or suggestions of reference books to check, etc. would be greatly appreciated. I have a lot more pictures if they would be helpful. Thank you!
