excellent road manners! Act quickly!� The Auburn Boattail Speedster
is considered one of the most striking cars to ever hit the open
road! As Auburn dedicated itself to art-deco design styles, it
employed some of the best designers of the era. With the model 851
and 852 Speedster credits going to designer Gordon Buehrig, very
few were ever made before Auburn had to close its doors forever.
Because of this, they became highly sought after for Highline
collectors and reproduced heavily by a great number of replica car
manufactures for enthusiasts. One of the original manufactures was
Antique Autos of America based out of Largo, FL. As a prominent
classic car restoration facility already, it began to produce some
of the most highly acknowledged Auburn and Cord replicas ever
manufactured professionally! It was largely under the supervision
of project manager, Michael Atkins, who now owns and operates
Speedster Motorcars in their new facility in Clearwater, FL!
Speedster Motorcars produced this very striking 1936 Auburn
Boattail 852 Speedster in 2004. Finished in a sporting shade of
Dark Green Metallic & Ivory Pearl over Tan Leather upholstery and
Tan canvas top, this example is powered by a brand new Vortec 5.3L
V8, 4L60E 4-speed automatic transmission and 9" rear end! Complete
with a host of factory equipment that includes staggered 15" wire
spoke wheels wrapped in�whitewall tires measuring 235/70R15 at the
front and 275/60R15 at the rear, adjustable coil-over independent
front suspension with tubular upper/lower control arms,
machine-turned aluminum dash, air conditioning, power steering,
power 4-wheel disc brakes, power seat, power windows, tilt steering
column, Lokar shift knob, stainless brake lines, transmission oil
cooler, air horns, Stewart-Warner gauges, cowl lights with side
mirrors, front fog lights, simulated engine exhaust ducting, hood
ornament & badging, billet pedals and vents, seatbelts, down
exhaust with twin exhaust turndowns! Safety items include emergency
handbrake and turn signals. The car survives today having been
driven only 3,675 miles since completion! Fitted with a full
convertible top and canvas tonneau cover, this Speedster would be
just as much at home driving across the country as it would be
parked at a show. The car is titled as a 2004 Auburn Speedster and
should, therefore, have no issues at the DMV. The build quality of
this car is still apparent today; all interior touch points and
well as all exterior cosmetics are in fantastic condition with only
the smallest signs of use. The car is sure to turn heads anywhere
it goes and should make for many years of reliable transportation!
