Vehicle Detail

UP FOR AUCTION BY A PRIVATE OWNER IN DALLAS TEXAS IS A VERY NICE EXAMPLE OF A 1950 CROSLEY HOTSHOT! ONE OF 825 CROSLEY HOTSHOTS PRODUCED. THE CROSLEY HOTSHOT HAD MANY EARLY INNOVATIONS SUCH AS 4 WHEEL DISC BRAKES, AND AN OVERHEAD CAM ENGINE. THE 1100lb ROADSTER WAS EQUIPED WITH A 44 CUBIC INCH, 724 CC MOTOR SPORTED A WHOPPING 26.5 HORSEPOWER, AND WAS LINKED TO THE REAR AXLE WITH 3 SPEED FLOOR MOUNTED SHIFTER. THE CROSLEY ENGINE POWERED MANY FAMOUS RACE CARS AROUND THE WORLD. THE MOTOR EASILY REVS TO 7000 RPM, AND IS CAPABLE OF SPINNING 12,000 RPM WITH SOME MAJOR ENGINE MODS! DID WE MENTION THAT A CROSLEY HOTSHOT WON THE FIRST SEBRING RACE IN 1950? THIS CROSLEY HOTSHOT SPORTS A NEW ALUMINUM FUEL TANK, NEW 6 VOLT BATTERY, AND A NEW FUEL PUMP. THE 5 BF GOODRICH SILVERTOWN WHITEWALL TIRES ARE A NICE TOUCH. THE FLOORBOARDS ARE SOLID AND BONE DRY. THE HARD TO FIND DOORS ARE REMOVEABLE. THE SUPPORT YOU WILL RECIEVE FROM THE CROSLEY CLUB OF AMERICA IS TRULY AMAZING! THE CONVERTIBLE TOP AND FRAME ARE MISSING, BUT ARE EASILY FOUND THRU THE CROSLEY CLUBS, AND ARE QUITE REASONABLY PRICED. IMPRESS YOUR FRIENDS AND UPSET YOUR NEIGHBORS. THE RESERVE IS LOW FOR A TRUE CROSLEY SURVIVOR OF THIS CALIBER.IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR WOULD LIKE MORE PICTURES PLEASE SEND AN EMAIL OR CALL PATRICK AT 903 352 8488.I HAVE LISTED THE HOTSHOT ON SEVERAL SITES AND MAY END THE AUCTION AT ANY TIME. ALL REASONABLE OFFERS WILL BE CONSIDERED.
