Maxwell at Auction

[Chuck Richardson]

RM Auctions has a 1908 HC Runabout (Lot #30) up at Meadow Brook in Rochester, MI on Aug 6. Go to their site (http://www.rmauctions.com/events/carlist.cfm?sCode=MB05) to have a look. The estimate is $25-35,000! I'm a bit confused. Model H's were touring cars, so if this is 1908, it would have to be a LC. But it has a tool box and side step like the A line. Perhaps someone with a better understanding of the cars can explain? The chassis number matches the serial number of an '09 A. Did they use the banded radiators on the A models? Perhaps it is an early '09, manufactured in '08 and misdated?
