1912 Buick Other

4 OHV

Clear

SITTING SINCE 1954 NEARLY COMPLETE BUICK ROADSTER WITH THE ROUND GAS TANK ON THE BACK. I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR CARS SINCE '69 AND HAVE NEVER FOUND ANYTHING CLOSE TO THIS 100 + YR. OLD JUST WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO COME ALONG. 4 CYL OVERHEAD VALVE ENGINE THAT WON INDY 1909 WAS TURNING OVER LAST YEAR AND SHOULD NOW. WILL BE SHOWN AT HERSHEY AND CAN BE PICKED UP THERE. WILL AD MORE DETAILS TOMORROW! On Sep-30-13 at 22:10:39 PDT, seller added the following information: THE CAR HAS BRASS TRIM ON THE COWL AND HEAD LAMP BEZELS (LAMPS ARE STEEL). FOUR ORIGINAL 27" WHEELS ARE IN THE LOFT IN PRETTY GOOD CONDITION, WHILE THE WHEELS ON THE CAR ARE 25". FRONTS SEEM GOOD WITH AIR STILL IN THE TIRES. REARS ARE DAMAGED WITH ONE NEW (OLD) TIRE. 32 X 3 1/2 I'M PUTTING ON. THE SHEET METAL HAS SOME SURFACE RUST BUT NO RUST THROUGH ANYWHERE EXCEPT A SPOT JUST BELOW THE EMBLEM ON THE RAD SHELL. YOU CAN SEE IT IN THE PHOTO. THERE IS A LARGE ORIGINAL LOOKING MUFFLER APPROX. 3 FT LONG AND MAYBE 8 INCHES IN DIA. BUT NO PIPES AS I RECALL THE EXHAUST CUT OUT PEDAL IS THERE NEAR THE SEAT ACETYLENE TANK IS THERE BUT MAY BE TOO RUSTED TO USE. COWL LAMPS ARE KEROSENE. MANY BUICKS HAVE A WOODEN BOX ON THE REAR. THE CAR WAS USED TO HAUL MILK CANS AND THE BOX MAY HAVE BEEN REMOVED AT THAT TIME. GAS TANK SEEMS GOOD BUT IS NOT ON THE CAR AS YOU SEE. I DIDN'T NOTICE THE BRAKE BANDS IN THE PICTURE. THEY MAY BE SPARES OR ALSO REMOVED. THE TOP AND TOP IRONS ARE THERE IN POSITION. TOP MATERIAL CONDITION IS UNKNOWN. I DONT IMAGINE IT IS GOOD AFTER BEING FOLDED DOWN ALL THESE YEARS. AS FAR AS I KNOW I'M THE 3RD OWNER. THE CAR ORIGINALLY CAME FROM NY STATE AND THE FAMILY IS STILL THERE. I HAVE THE TITLE THIS IS THE MOST DESIRABLE BODY STYLE, IN MY OPINION, WITH THE LARGER 201" ENGINE, SPLIT SEAT, AND SHIFTING INSIDE THE CAR. LAST YEAR FOR RIGHT HAND DRIVE SINCE IT IS A BARN FIND I DO NOT KNOW ALL THE DETAILS ON ITS' CONDITION. THANKS. DEPOSIT THRU PAYPAL, BALANCE ON PICKUP. I SHOULD BE AT HERSHEY FROM THE 9TH ON IN THE RED SECTION. On Oct-01-13 at 20:19:19 PDT, seller added the following information: MORE INFO. THE OPTIONAL WINDSHIELD IS INSTALLED ON THE REAR PORTION OF THE COWL. I HAVE A PHOTO OF THE CAR LOOKING BRAND NEW WITH THE WINDSHIELD IN THIS POSITION. THE PROUD OWNER AND HIS WIFE LOOKING VERY SERIOUS ABOUT DRIVING THEIR EXPENSIVE MACHINE ! THANKS AGAIN On Oct-03-13 at 21:45:03 PDT, seller added the following information: Not to mislead, the photos I have are computer paper printer scans of the originals. The mechanical condition is unknown.
