bob duffer Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 A friend of mine in Arizona father died and she has a number of cars in the garage he left to her. She asked me what year and model this might be. Any ideas ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Harwood Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Looks like a '35 coupe/roadster to me. A fairly desirable, valuable car, depending on the condition. Nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob duffer Posted August 11, 2015 Author Share Posted August 11, 2015 She said it had a lift built in by each tire on the under body to lift the car in case of a flat...I have never heard of that before on the older cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Peterson Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 1935 Standard Eight coupe-roadster.If the lifts are "built in", they are not factory features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trimacar Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Appears to be a fairly nice car, nice color and nice lines....for sale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1935Packard Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 As West says, it's a 1935 Series 1201 "Standard 8" Coupe Roadster. I'm not sure the NADA price guide is at all accurate for this car -- the "average" price listed seems low to me -- but FWIW it is here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trimacar Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 What a teaser, great looking car, but don't know if it's for sale, or what other cars might be hiding in the garage! I'd think 50 to 60K might be right for this car, maybe a little less, depending on how long it's been since it was on the road, and the 140K+ mentioned is very high for a standard eight....

bob duffer Posted August 12, 2015 Author Share Posted August 12, 2015 Here are some more pics . She wants to get them appraised first then decide on a price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsancle Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I can help right now with the Cord. Older restoration 812 Conv Coupe 125k-145k. Factory SC add another 30/40k depending on condition. This assumes it runs. If it doesn't run I would say 125k or less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trimacar Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Be careful with appraisers. There are some good ones out there, and there are knowledgable people on values.Then there are the appraisers who first ask "what do you want it to be worth?On the Cord, yes, over 100k, but running and driving condition can easily mean a 30k swing in value.Some desirable cars, get them running and bring in a person who knows old cars, set a fair price and move on.

CarlLaFong Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Even though it has been customized, the 35 Ford Roadster won't go cheap, especially if it has a history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
