Vehicle Description
The beautiful Boatail Speedster built in Auburn, Indiana to capture
the press of the "New York Auto show" and that it did. The racy
lines and Boatail give the car an aviation look like its moving
when standing still. Famed designer Alan Leahmy was an icon
designer who passed very young to be followed by famed Gordon
Buerig who designed the 1935-36 Auburn Boatail - a take off of the
1931. This car powered by Lhead Lycombing engine mated to the
manual 3 speed floor shift transmission. This Auburn is primarily
built from an original with a glass Boatail body. This Auburn was a
recent body off restoration with a famed color combination body
clad in regal red with black fenders and silver belt line. 6
Buffalo wire wheels with wide whitewalls and chrome knock off
bronze caps; threaded for quick dismount and change. The interior
is correct pattern with supple red leather interior with a hidden
black canvas harts cloth top. Very few original speedsters were
built; the design became an icon in automotive art and history.
This example runs and drives very good. Company owner El Cord was
influenced and intrigued by aviation; which is imaged by the dash
features and the split Vee windshield. A great asset to any fine
collection and car of choice by Museum owner. Youtube video
