"For the auto bidder:
As a longtime friend of David Berry, I had
the opportunity to spend some time around his
classic automobiles and will share what I
know about these cars.
The 1935 Lasalle Convertible is a restored
example of which only 820 were produced that
year.
It has a 248 cubic inch straight eight
flathead engine that is rated at 105
horsepower.
The transmission is a 3 speed standard shift.
This car was restored to all original
specifications and was awarded the Senior
designation by the Antique Automobile Club of
America.
The car drives nicely and runs well, steering
and brakes work well for a vehicle of this
vintage.
The windows roll up and down perfectly, the
optional radio is operational.
This was Dave's favorite, and as far as I
know, all the parts of the car are original
LaSalle parts.
The 1936 Ford Cabriolet is what we refer to
as a "Resto-Mod".
This means the appearance of the vehicle is
as an original vehicle with modifications to
the drivetrain.
It has a 265 cubic inch Chevrolet engine with
a 4 speed manual transmission from a S-10
Chevy pickup.
There have been some upgrades to the car such
as 12 volt electrical system.
This car also drives and runs well, the
steering and brake systems are as original.
Being a cabriolet, it has roll up door glass
that works well.
Any questions about the cars, I will be happy
to answer
Phone or text is 423-676-4343 or e-mail
carsmith101@hotmail.com.
Thanks!
Mike Smith"
