Speedster/race car Boat tail

Post by YellowTRacer » Wed Jan 29, 2025 2:07 pm

Helping a friend that has a great aluminum rear body boat tail that would be perfect for a custom built speedster or race car and the price is almost give away. As you look at the pictures, the tail is setting on a 1920 to 23 Overland chassis which in itself would make a good speedster. The tail is aluminum and in good condition, he will sell them separately. $300.00 for the tail. The overland engine is completely apart, appears to be all there, transmission is there, radiator looks great. $350.00 for the Overland. complete package both items is $500.00. If you're thinking about it, better move fast as he's going to pack it all up and put it in storage and it will no longer be available. I told him to hold off a couple of days.

Not even an offer on any of this stuff? I especially thought someone would want the tail for a speedster body. And as for the Overland stuff, if you had an Overland with a major mechanical problem you'd gladly pay a couple hundred bucks for some of these components. Crazy hobby.

Ed:
you are right ...crazy hobby and crazy market ... many items in your listing that would be difficult to build and very time consuming ... also Overland was a good early auto. , surely someone is restoring an Overland ?
