1924 McLaughlin Buick Touring - THE H.A.M.B.

Would this have a 6 cyl engine or a 4 cyl. ?

It is a six, it is too big to be a 4.

The six has a round bar across the front of the frame/chassie. Between the two chassie rails. The picture is very small but I don,t think I can see this bar.

Looks to be a 4 cyl.model 35 to me. All the 1924 4 cyl models I have seen here in Sweden are Canadian built cars,just wonder if there are any US built 4 cyl.models in 1924.

Since the windshield posts and radiator shell look to be painted and not nickel plated, I say it's a 4-cylinder.

Downloaded and enlarged the photo and see no front round cross member. So to me it would a 4 cylinder model 35. Larry

Thanks all. I received a kind response from the seller. This is a 4 cyl car. I received a comprehensive photo set and the body and wood are OK. Missing the steering wheel, the carberator, but drivetrain is there otherwise.

This was a Reynolds Museum car.

The seller offered this car to me for $2500, and I had an exclusive week to think about it before he put it on ebay. Since it is in California, and I am in Iowa, I felt I could get "more" car locally or closer.

Nonetheless, I believe his comments. His name was Joel and he is easy to speak with and understands the situation.

The car has mostly good wood REQUIRING NO WOOD RESTORATION. This car came from the famed Reynolds Alberta Museum stash of cars, most of which have been sold by now.

Anyway-for you west coasters who want an open car to do, I don't think you can go wrong with this one at $2500, which I suspect is his reserve.
