Barn Find, mostly complete, only 2nd owner. Needs full restoration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Still drinking coffee after a driven Michigan road trip, which included the Gilmore. It was mostly a business trip, north of Port Huron. I was determined to put some fun in the trip. Really liked that state highway 25 from Port Huron up to Harbor Beach where my customer was. Stayed 2 nights in Port Huron, will definitely get a B & B closer to Harbor Beach next year if I do this again. Thanks for the information on the model 45, 1922 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B Jake Moran Posted August 31, 2019 Author Share Posted August 31, 2019 Thanks Larry. I call that manageable with my small garage and perhaps a decent performer all things considered. I could only find one on - line a recent auction result. And it was 2 tone brown. Unlikely original offered colors. Well I did find a black one on 2nd look- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibarlaw Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Here are some photos of one John Fesser and I worked on outside of Baltimore back in 2013. This is what the dealer was asking for the car back in 2015 I believe after they did some work and installed 5 new tires. I do not know what the car actually sold for. When the former owner had the car and was trying to sell it after it sitting for about 5 years. We offered $9,500. there was about a truckload of spare parts that was to come with it . When I asked at the dealership they knew nothing about the parts. And I told the new owner to contact the previous owners family about them. I spoke to the new owner afterward when he had some issues with the car. I offered to come down to help and never heard from him again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B Jake Moran Posted September 2, 2019 Author Share Posted September 2, 2019 Larry That is an interesting story, I am glad you remember the details. I wonder how close the dealer got to that asking price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
