Vehicle Description
Crosley was a small, independent American Auto manufacturer of
Subcompact cars starting all the way back in 1939, and was active
until 1952 with the interruption of WWII, that was probably the
beginning of the end. However, Crosley had a lot of firsts, not to
mention a American Microcar. A couple of some "firsts" is that they
were the first affordable, mass market car with overhead camshafts,
the first term of the "Sports-Utility" and the first to be fitted
with a 4-wheel caliper type disc brakes just to mention a few. They
were also very light-weight making them fuel-efficient.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this unique piece of American
automotive history for your consideration. This little blue 1949
Station Wagon is in remarkably nice condition for its age and
stature. The paint quality is quite nice overall and the body is
very nice. The 4 cylinder runs as it should and the manual
transmission shifts properly. The chrome remains in good
condition.
These little cars are super unique, and many influential people
such as Dwight Eisenhower, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Nelson
Rockefeller were all noteable owner. It will be quite hard to find
such another example that is this nice. These little Crosley's
aren't well known but sure are A Fine Car.
