It's a Studebaker

[Who's going to get your estate (car collection) when you die?]

As a widower with no kids, I have been dwelling on this very question.  There is no one in the extended family with any interest in the cars, so I have been either giving them away now or setting things in motion for where certain cars will go.  About six cars are not set up and if I croak before I get that done, cousins can fight over them.  Real estate has less meaning to me than the cars.  I don't care who gets the houses.

[Rare car that passed through my area. One Off JULIAN.]

Best '20s windshield ever.

I liked the original colors better than the new gray.

[Tire and rim blew off brake drum shearing all lug bolts off at the drum]

Were you able to recover the wheel?

The lug bolt holes and the wheel center will tell you what happened.  If they are battered like the hub and the lug holes are wallered out, the lug nuts were loose.  If the wheel is pristine and the lug holes still round with clean edges, you may have had some sort of explosive detachment.

 

I'd be inclined to suspect the wheel was loose.

Wow, what a handsome car that 1913 is!

[Is this a Studebaker?]

It's a Velie

[Beautiful headlights????]

I think they are Series 16 and later Studebaker.

[1907 vintage touring]

I think it is an EMF, about 1909

[ID late teens /early twenties car, please? Is it a Buick?]

I think it is a Maxwell, around 1918

[Besides the horror stories how do I find a good shipper.]

That's the one.  When it gets here we'll see if it was a terrible mistake!

I know the guy who was handling the sale and he's a good guy so it shouldn't turn into a nightmare.

Hi, Quilbilly -

Is this Stanley sedan black?  With odd headlights?  If it is, it's already coming to the west coast - to California.
