Mark Gregory Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 NOT MINE https://www.kijiji.ca/v-classic-cars/calgary/1927-franklin-11-b-sport-sedan-original-calgary-car/1295056773 Original 1927 Franklin Sport Sedan air cooled 6 cylinder motor sold new in 1927 by my grandfather who owned Bell's Garage Franklin dealership in Calgary in the 1920's. He took it back on trade in 1929 and it has been in the family since then. Comes with lots of spare parts, tires, transmissions, tools, manuals and engine schematics posters, extra steering wheel, new top put on and garaged since then, only used for car shows and treks. Runs, needs a battery and the brakes need attention. Great car for restoration for a hobbyist as all the parts are there. Serious enquiries only. Will consider trades. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is, it's the 130, which is closer in size to the Series 11B and 12 engines. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
