718 is a New York area code. I like it al lot, but have no idea about the price. Did PA make this model of is it actually a speedster?

It has the makings of a very desirable Brass Era car. Hard to say if the bodywork is 100% original or not. A person would have to do a very careful in person inspection, preferably along with someone with a good depth of knowledge about early teens Pierce's. But my gut tells me that's a somewhat optimistic price. On the other hand cars like this rarely come on the market so who knows ?

This has been on several ads over the past 10 years.  I called about it when it was supposedly located in Oregon, but in fact it wasn't available to be seen there.  It was built using mostly original parts.  I believe the body is a reproduction of castings that seem to be quality work.  I believe the seller at the time I called told me it was not an original 1911 motor as evidenced by the starter and generator.  I could be wrong as it is only from my memory I am making these comments.  I apologize in advance if I am wrong.  I would like to have it to try and finish.  I do remember the price being around $50K at the time.

Just remembered I also saw this later listed as being for sale in Alaska.

That square Westinghouse generator and distributor on its rear end serving the intake side plugs says 1916-1918 to me.  Many components have the engine number (same as chassis number) stamped into them, so those numbers would be helpful.

Man, those headlamps are huge! Anyone know, are the Solars? I can't afford the car but certainly can see the appeal to this one.
