1915 on ebay!

I sold my 1924 Light Six Touring car for much the same reason. These cars were made in an age when travel at 25 mph was considered normal. Take one of these cars out on the road today and impatient drivers want to run you over (even if you pull over every now and then to let them by). Try driving up a steep grade on a rural road with a tractor trailer on your bumper as you down shift into second gear at 15 mph. With that said these cars are fun in parades and at car shows, when no one is in a hurry. Also keep in mind if you buy one of these vintage cars you will need a full size pick up truck and a decent trailer to haul it to the shows.

But, an R-2, rack and pinion steering and 4 wheel disc brakes would cure all that! BOSEG

Well, that's better than the big block and Fatman front end that Calvin would want to put in there!

IIRC, Dave Dudey used to drive his series 16 from San Jose area to San Luis Obispo for the SOCA meet. I think that this is 300+ miles.
