"A very rare and odd car for the Swedish market, that’s well worth renovating. All the elements are supposed to exist but cannot be guaranteed by us. Many jobs have been fixed but the engine and gearbox will need an inspection and review."

Facts about the model

Star var ett bilmärke som monterades av Durant Motors Company mellan 1922 och 1928. Även känd som Star Car sågs Star som en konkurrent mot Ford Model T. (I Storbritannien såldes den som Rugby , för att undvika förväxling med det brittiska märket.)

Precis som andra produkter från Durant Motors Company, var Star en "monterad" bil, byggd av delar som levererats av olika externa företag. Ursprungligen drivs Star av en fyrcylindrig motor; 1926 introducerade man en sexcylindrig motor. Alla fabriksmonterade motorer byggdes av Continental.

År 1923 blev Star det första bilföretaget som erbjöd en stationsvagn. Istället för att skicka ut ett chassi till en specialbyggare, som lade till ett chassie av trä, levererades vagnkarosseriet till Star-fabriken och monterades på chassit där.

Under den tidiga delen av modellåret 1928 var Star känd som Durant Star och var endast tillgänglig med en fyrcylindrig motor. Bilen byttes ut under andra hälften av modellåret 1928 med Durant 4.

  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
