Beschreibung
This car is a project vehicle that has been stored indoors since the 1970s. It is particularly interesting because it is equipped with a straight-six overhead valve engine, which was a novelty in 1929. Most competitors at the time still had side-valve engines in their cars. It is claimed that Chevrolet's engine was a contributing factor to Ford's decision to invest in a V8 engine.
The car was first registered in Sweden on June 10, 1929, with the registration number Y4847. It appears that the car was taken off the road during World War II due to gasoline rationing. The next entry in the records indicates that the car changed counties, and on December 14, 1945, the then-owner, Line Worker Ragnar Svensson, registered it again, and the car was assigned the county number AC6907.
In 1977, the car was purchased by a vintage car enthusiast who was a truck driver. The goal was a restoration that would result in a good original appearance. Over the years, vintage car markets and scrap yards were visited in the search for the right parts. The seats were reupholstered with new plush fabric in the correct color. Bumpers and lamp housings were rechromed, a new rubber mat and other additional parts were acquired. The car is partially disassembled. The body has a relatively sound wooden frame, and the body panels have been sanded and primed at some point. The owner has since passed away, and the car is being sold by the estate. The car was never transferred to the new vehicle registry in the mid-1970s. Therefore, it will need to undergo registration inspection when the restoration is complete. The car still retains its old county number. An old registration certificate is available and will accompany the car for originality verification during the registration inspection.
