TerryB Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Found this auction listed in a local paper. Saturday April 21, Pottstown PA 1908 Buick model 10 and 1913 Car-Nation autos at estate auction. Both are restored. Apparently the Car-Nation is quite rare. Tracey L Jones auctioneers handling the sale. Website is tljonesauctioneers.com. I have no no ties to the event, just passing it on to anyone interested. Terry 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturday, April 21, 2018 Yes! An older write-up (2013) in Hemmings Motor News says there were seven Car-Nation autos known at that time.

George Albright Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Does anyone know the name and phone numbers of the owner of the 1913 car nation? I think this man still owns it.

wayne sheldon Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 (edited) Hey there George A! I don't know if it is the same one or not, however there has been a 1913 Car-Nation on ebay for a couple weeks now. https://www.ebay.com/itm/164992343179?hash=item266a4f5c8b:g:q~gAAOSwYJ9g9DZL Edited August 5, 2021 by wayne sheldon spotted a typo :( (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Albright Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Yes that’s it. I’m interested. Can’t get contact info through eBay. Trying to find someone who knows the owner. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, excellent work, Wayne! It must be the same car. How many 1913 Car-Nations are there, in exactly the same body style with black paint and red wheels?

Your message will go through the Ebay system. Or you could click on the blue button, "Make Offer." Hope you get the car! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayne sheldon Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 I have always found the short-lived (in this country) fad of cyclecars to be very interesting. My wife and I were seriously interested in one over fifteen years ago, but it didn't work out. I like the Car-Nation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hudsy Wudsy Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 For anyone as slow as me, it's the same as carnation: 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hudsy Wudsy Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Well, honestly, I initially thought it was a name like a cheesy used car lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Dobbin Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 (edited) There was one in Harold Walters garage in Clearwater FL When I bought his project 1915Model T, in 1981. I know that's 40 years ago, seems like not long ago to me. The Carnation looked kind of like a toy.

Terry Harper Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Love it! Car-Nation, Keeton, lots of neat history there. Sort a forgotten segment of the market at the time add in the Herreshoff engine which is linked to the famous yacht and you have a really neat piece of history.
