Thought I'd post an update here just in case anyone might be interested.  Times have indeed changed and the car is not "fresh."  The car sold at the RM Action at the Peterson Museum, Sept. 26 for $214,500.  Still way out of my reach.  RM Auction Results

LOT: 225   
 
Estimate: $250,000-$350,000 US
Chassis No. 18155453
Offered Without Reserve
AUCTION RESULTS: Lot was Sold at a price of $214,500

Outstanding!! I could see and read about speed-car-history
for a long time. There is book world-record-vehicle from the
beginning (tried to translate), which I read in my holidays.
The history starts at 1898 and ends with 2000+. Great stuff,
great pics (ISBN 3-89602-527-9).

Very cool thread Greg.... I missed it the first time. I'm glad for the update that allowed me to read entire story. Just one more reason I enjoy this site so much. All of our personal stories and adventures of families and friends make for some pretty interesting reading. What an awesome story to remember your uncle and your family by. I think all of us harley guys have some sort of gearhead in our family tree. I have these 2 pictures of my grandma  on a harley and the other of grandpa and grandma on what appears to be a 1920-22 V-twin. Found these photo's after my father died..... he never mentioned his parents my grandparents riding...... just how much he was against me riding when I got my 1st minibike motor from my mothers father my fun grandpa that had the 1st corvette stingray on the roads in Oregon when they 1st came out. Damm could have bought it for 700.00 in 1973.....instead I bought his 1962 scout for 200.00 since I was moving up to snow country and thinking I was going to go to college......Hah, that didn't last.  :nixweiss: Jon. Thanks again for the story Greg I enjoyed it...... :2vrolijk_21:

Hey Jon, 

That's a great story too! Thanks for sharing!  Just think of the cool cars and bikes our relatives had.... Oh if we knew then which would be so coveted today.  Wish I knew half the motor stuff my uncle did...

Very cool car.  It would be nice if you could get possession of it.  I love the old uniform of the day.  White T-shirets and jeans with rolled up cuff.

Greg, very familiar with your Uncle's car. Here's a picture of the car at the Grand National Roaster Show in San Mateo in 2003. Great car, just love these old history hot rods. Was lucky enough to be involved in the interior restoration of a few of them...Thanks for sharing...Sid
