I think I would have experienced a major orgasm had I been selected to own such a wondeful piece of history. This is equal to King Tut's tomb!!

Great find! You will need to put a armed guard on it to keep the butchers away!

The hobby is fortunate the seller was committed to restoration. You're fortunate to be the new steward.

OMG - You lucky bastard !
Unbelievable !
Wash it and rub it down with GIBBS OIL. That is, after you get it right mechanically.
Congratulations !
Keep the photos coming please.

If you're interested this gennie horn part is in decent shape and I will donate it to your car . I have plenty [ none for sale though ] and I never had the heart to replate one that still looks this good . Send a PM with an address if interested . No negotiating though as I can't reduce the price any further . As I said earlier NICE CAR David J

Thanks for all the comments and the offer David J. I thought about just putting it on the road and driving it but it would need a roof, interior and possibly a motor. I'm thinking full restoration.
And no ColumbiA, no hydraulics.
