1919 Mitchell Touring Car - $1500 - Cumberland, WI


Recommended Posts

Definitely not mine…if I was restoring a 1919 Mitchell this would be a good parts purchase; complete drivetrain, radiator and other parts of interest.

It's missing all of its pedals (brake, etc) plus a few other hard to find parts. Looks like a skid loader just pulled it out of a barn, wonder if the missing parts are still up in the rafters.

Decent quality , middle class car. Very similar to a Buick 6 or Stude 6 or Hudson 6 of the same year. But Buick's production volume gave a bit more of a marketing edge. The benefit of economies of scale.

Mitchell automobiles were better than average good cars. Our HCCA regional group some years back had a few of them, at least five as I recall. A couple good friends of mine had Mitchell automobiles. Very unusual for that many to be in one small group. People that have and tour with them love them!

Unfortunately, this car is a long ways from drivable and lovable.

Pretty much any significant missing parts will have to be made or adapted from some other car. Don't get me wrong? It can be done. I hope this car gets bought and properly restored. However, these days? That is getting less and less likely.
