    I think the engine is in the rear on those
     
  9. I see mid-60's custom. Think Monogram model kits. Think Paddy Wagon. Think Red Baron. OK;maybe not the Red Baron. You get the idea...

    ...And I haven't a clue as to what it is.

    This is a great example of the first year of the
    Henway. Needs total restoration.
     
  22. That one appears to be a Stutz Pak-Age-Car.
    Pretty rare with about 10 known to be left.

    I think I've seen other pictures of that same truck.
    ================================

    The were also made later by Diamond-T.
    Here's a restored Diamond-T:

    ====================================

    I just picked up 1 and 1/2 of them.
    Here's a link:
    http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=525870

    [​IMG]

    The engine is a small flathead 4 cylinder water cooled Lycoming with a transaxle and halfshafts. Similar to Corvette with a transverse spring.

    You stand up to drive!
    The throttle is on the gearshift lever.

    below is the other 1/2 a Stutz

    =====================================

    Here's another one that was 'saved' last year
    [​IMG]

    ========================================

    Here's the info I've found:

    The 1st model was actually known as a Pac-Kar, built in Chicago in 1926. It had a 7 hp 2 cylinder horizontally opposed engine mounted in the rear. By 1932 the Pak-Age-Car Corporation was in financial trouble, and was bought out by Stutz.

    The first 28 Stutz vehicles in a total order of 340 were completed by the summer of 1936. But this wasn't nearly enough to keep things going, Stutz declared bankruptcy in April 1937.

    Spring of 1938 Pak-Age-Car was sold to Auburn Central Company, (what remained of Auburn - Cord - Duesenburg).

    August 1938 the PAC-AGE-CAR Corporation of Connersville was formed as a subsidiary of Auburn and production moved to Auburn's idle Connersville plant.

    Since Auburn was also in bankruptcy and had no dealerships, Diamond-T was contracted as the dealership to sell and service them.

    when you think you have seen everything, you don't know shit!
    too cool would love to find one!
     
  26. it's what Erkle would drive if he went into business. "did i do that"
     
  27. I worked with a guy in the '70s that had something very similar, and drove it to work. He was banging a gal from the orderly room every day at lunch. We called it the "nooner schooner."
     
  28. Do you suppose the Auburn/Cord/Deusenberg museum would put one one display?
