Steve Braverman Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I should know this, but does anyone know what the actual new price of a 1932 16A sedan like mine would have been? It's kind of a "plain Jane." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clincher Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 "1932 Franklin Supercharged Airman. 132" w.b." 5-pass. Sedan: $2,345. factory list price. 5-pass. Oxford Sedan: $2,395. (Branham Automobile Reference Book, 1934 Edition)My old 16-A that I drove for everyday transport back in the 1950's was probably the best car of all my Franklins. I'll see if I can find a picture of it, and post it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clincher Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Here is my old Series 16 Sedan. Pictures taken October 1958 at the time that I bought it. Nice clean "Used Car" with original paint and upholstery, and running sweetly. Price: $200.00! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Braverman Posted January 27, 2008 Author Share Posted January 27, 2008 Wow, what a deal Yours is all decked out with muti-tone paint, dual tail lights and a tire cover. I see that your car is in WI now, and is listed as fully restored. It looked great in 1958. I wonder, do you or anyone else know what the cost of these options would have been? How about wire wheels vs. Artillery? Which cost more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
