Description: 1914CaseModel 40 5 Passenger Touring Car, 4 Cylinder 40HP. Right hand drive with the gear shift, the one with the round ball on top, and the emergency brake level on the right side. The transmission is a 3 speed manual transmission. There is no odometer on the vehicle however mileage is estimated at 500 miles. The vehicle is in original condition. Bench, Split, Leather Seats, Standard painted wooden spoke wheels, car cover, driving lights, gas lights, canvas roof. This vehicle is restored to fine condition.. A total body off restoration was done in about 1988 to return this vehicle to its original grand elegance. This car is obviously a beauty but is probable incorrect in terms of authenticity for the following reasons: -Wheels appear incorrect. The inspection noted they are 34 x 4 1/2. The original correct wheels should be 37 x 4 1/2. To replace those on the car with correct copies run about $1800.00 each with tires, or about $9,000.00 for the complete car.-The electric horn appears to be incorrect type for the vehicle.-Side lights appear to have been incorrectly plated. Originals were plated on top and outer rim only. Not totally plated.-Original radiator shell was painted black, not plated.-Head light frames should be painted black not plated.-Supporting top bows are bowed about 2 inches, should have about a 4 inch angle at bottom.-Floor corners by door show metallic tie down plates, these should be leather to be correct.-There are no pockets inside of doors. Front area has no pockets, on both rear doors do have pockets, incorrectly designed.-Dashboard wood appears too good. It is a polished Walnut or Oak. It was original a very plain unpolished painted wood. Paul Martin 303-795-8469 67740@ads.ClassyAuto.com
