pistoncollector Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 Does anyone out there know anything about 1910 Overlands? Specifically, does anyone know any history about their Speedsters? You know, what years did they make them (if at all), how many did they make, color and accessory options, standard equipment, did anyone prominent order them or drive them, etc.I would love to have a photo of one. Please share whatever infomation you might have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Hoover Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 pistoncollector, I never thought I'd see the day when Binger would let something concerning a Overland get put on hold while he works on another brand of car. I think he's really taking a shine to that Chalmers Detroit! Great having you up here the other week! Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1937hd45 Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 I know this will come across as a thread hijacking but I want to know as much about the Chalmers Detroit as I do the Overland speedster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 I'm not going to let the cat out of the bag, but most of us on this thread so far KNOW the guy going by the moniker of pistoncollector. He is a pretty well known "character" among the <span style="font-weight: bold">OLD CAR</span> people. hvs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
