  1. Yes this is not a fully optioned car. The sales brochure shows what was included when it was fully optioned. You are correct it is red. We have no idea why, and its priced with that in mind. If you would like to come see it we could have it running for you.
  2. The last and only time it has been driven was a parade in the late 80's. Its been on this lift since 1981. This car has appproximatley 4 miles total on it.
  3. I climbed up on the lift to get the vin tag but didnt think to snap a couple pictures of the interior.
  4. 1912 Buick Roadster Model #36. This car has been in my family since the early 40's maybe longer. It has been kept inside the entire time we have owned it. If you have any questions I will do my best to answer them. Price is $12,000.00. mrpeatling@yahoo.com Thank you.
  5. No, the only cars that are ours in these pictures are the front-ford racer, and the 1913 Buick. The racer is currently at the Speedway Museum of Speed in Omaha Nebraska, usually it resides at the High Banks Hall of fame (Belleville, Ks)and the Buick is in Rex's Antique Aito Museum in Salina Kansas.
  6. Wow! This post woke me up this morning better than my coffee.
  7. Bobtails or Big Cars! Here is an old Fronty Ford SOHC, and DOHC race car we have on loan to the Speedway Museum of Speed in Omaha. Usually its at the High Banks Hall of fame in Bellville Kansas.
  8. Thank you for the warm welcome. I found the same info on the web as well. I just wonder why this car would hsve been repainted. I know my great grandpa, and my grandpa never drove it. I can't find any evidence that there was ever any body damage at all. Like both of them I have been in retail automotive for 25 years, and have myself done a ground up restoration on a 67 mustang fast back. Over the years I can say that I have pretty much seen all the tricks playing with these cars that people try to pull. When a seller will say "all original" or "museum quality" thats usually not the case. This car, as others we have are in museums on loan. I know any car that fits the above discription has to "stand tall". This is the only sticking point with this car is the color. Maybe you guys can think of some reason it would be repainted. Could it have been special ordered? Even though I have ran dealerships for over 15 years, I have no idea how the ordering procces then worked. Thanks for your time guys.
  9. New to the forum. This roadster has been in my family since the late 30's. My dad told me that it has never been sold new, and never titled. The car has done one parade in the early 90's. I'm trying to find out if this model 36 was available in red. Yes the wheels arent the wheels on it are not the original 36's but I do have them. My great grandfather was an implements dealer for 40 years, grandfather was an automotive dealer for 30 years.
