1918 Buick E-Six-45 Touring car, very good condition. Powerful 6 cylinder engine (for the day), three speed manual transmission with reverse. Runs and drives nicely, starts right up and idles smoothly. No odd noises, visible emissions, very sound mechanically. Good brakes, cooling and charging systems, has mostly all original components. The original vacuum fuel pump works only marginally, and accordingly an electric fuel pump with fuel regulator has been added for reliability. All gauges work, and the car has good tires and upholstery and a spare tire in excellent condition. The older top while not perfect is in good condition, was well fitted and looks good. All lights, horn and generator operate within expected parameters. The 242 cubic inch 6 cylinder engine produces 60 HP and has been well maintained.. It has an auxiliary air compressor on the passenger side of the engine which is engaged with a sliding sprocket.
Original components throughout except for the perishable parts such as upholstery, tires, hoses, etc, very nice restoration finished several years ago with newer mechanical rebuild of engine/exhaust, this 1956 Ford Thunderbird is in excellent aesthetic and mechanical condition. Has hard and soft tops, power windows and seats, power steering and brakes, factory A/C and is in generally great condition inside and out. Nearly all of the original components are still on the car, including the vacuum operated windshield wipers. From what I can see after having owned the car for a only a short time, this car was driven in the past by the owner in Aurora, Oregon, but in the last decade or two has seen limited road time. Accordingly, the amenities and details are in pristine condition and this car is a very attractive driver. Not a ‘points car’, but certainly scores high in most areas.
The original Town & Country radio is still in place, vacuum tubes and all, but is not functional, as is the original clock, also not working. The speedometer wiggles a bit at speeds, but the odometer is accurate. There are some paint flaws, but the few that are present do not detract from the general excellent appearance of the car.

1922 Chevrolet Model 490 Touring car, recently restored. Previous owner kept this car garaged in the Riverside, California area for many decades, and accordingly it is rust free and in great condition. Upholstery is in great shape, and the car is in excellent condition for a 99 year old vehicle and nearly all original. Runs very well, does not smoke, knock or make funny noises. Paint is good, with a few imperfections here and there but the flaws in the paint do not detract from the generally nice overall condition of the car.

1959 Jaguar Mark 9 (MK IX) Saloon, 3.8 Liter 6 cylinder engine, automatic transmission, fairly original condition as far as I can determine, although I am not an authority on Jaguars. This luxury car was originally titled in England, and I understand after talking with a UK loyal subject that the Queen Mother (he called her the Queen Mum) used to own one of these 1959 Mark 9 Jaguars, perhaps this one? This particular car found its way into the inventory of the Frank Dale and Stepsons dealership in London which primarily sells Rolls Royce and Bentley luxury automobiles, and this luxury Jaguar saloon at the time fit right into those ranks. Frank Dale and Stepsons was doing business at the time this car was sold in London at their Farm Lane facility and was operating at this location between 1972 and 1986 (plate in photo). No records show where the car was located after that point, but contact with Frank Dale & Stepsons (still in business) may yield some additional information. At some point between 1972 and 1999, this right-hand drive car was imported into the United States presumably from the United Kingdom, and the next records I have indicate that new Firestone whitewall tires were purchased for the car from Coker Tire Co. in February of 1999 when the car was running in the Los Angeles, CA area, where it remained until October 2019. The car is now located in DeKalb, Illinois.
Additional work as detailed on the included receipts was done on the car in May and June, 2010 at odometer reading 69,692 (appears to be original mileage) to include:
replacement fuel pump
valve job
head gasket
ignition tune up
Since this work was done, the car was driven an additional 732 miles , and then parked. The odometer currently reads 70,424 miles. The car has not run since approximately late 2010 or perhaps into 2011 or 2012 would be my best guess (8 years +/-), and the California plates have a 2012 registration sticker on them. All of the original factory components remain on the car, to include all the interior wood, exterior chrome and stainless steel trim. Era correct ACE raised aluminum letters/numbers licence plates are also on the car currently, although the California legal plates are also included (shipped loose). There is no battery installed in the car currently, and the engine will not turn over. The car is in need of work, to include getting it running and interior work such as the head liner and carpet which is torn in places in addition to other concerns on this antique luxury vehicle.

This is a 1921 Dodge Brothers Touring car, a beautiful recent restoration and has excellent gloss black exterior paint and black and tan interior upholstery, also very well appointed. Engine runs great, has aluminum pistons, fresh tune up components (rotor, cap, coil, spark plug wires, spark plugs, fan belt, etc.). All three forward gears shift smoothly, clutch operates nicely and the gauges all function normally. The 33″ tires have some age cracks but have excellent tread, to include a fully aired up spare tire. All original with only a handful of exceptions, and the brakes work great and it cools well. A very nice original car.
