For Sale 1912 original Torpedo Roadster Body and Parts

Post by Don ellis » Mon Jul 25, 2022 3:35 pm

This is an early 1912 Torpedo roadster body that is all original. The body seems solid except for a rust out in the lower right under the seat. Wood is solid. It comes with the top bows and some of the original top. The bows are in perfect condition with no rust. The Torpedo gas tank is included. It is the correct tank but is missing the stands. The steering column is from a 1913 and is included. This body is a direct bolt on for a 1912 chassis.
This is a chance to own an original, when's the last time you saw one for sale.
I have other parts available also.
4800.00$ let's talk

Don, I'd say that from April was long enough! That is a remarkable time to hold it...good for you.

Not so long ago, I hoped to buy something from a guy on the Forum, and after calling the (incorrect) number multiple times that he originally posted, he sold the goods to someone else only 2 days later and then reamed me for good for not trying hard enough to contact him, after I protested... even though he made it clear he would only "talk" to someone and I was working with a bum number. Some deals aren't meant to be...

Two different folks and two extremes of patience. Hats off to you for holding out so long. As an aside, I am quite pleased with the '13 tank that I purchased from you, that I think came out of the same stuff this body came from.

That is a real find of a very rare body, and I am sure someone will be thrilled to have it.

Thanks Scott, the tank was from this lot. I really wish I could have known the guy that this stuff came from.

I’m not sure I want to tackle trying to ship this. I can assist if you arrange it.
