Description of 1929 Other Makes HUPMOBILE CONVERTIBLE "OPEN CAR" PHAETON Model "A" |
Hello Hupmobile collectors & collectors of RARE cars. his is the only known example (1) remaining of the 1928/1929 Hupmobile Model A Phaeton (4 door "OPEN CAR" Convertible). (according to Hupmobile club)It has dual windshields. dual side mount wheels. This car belonged to family of the acting legend Humphrey Bogart in Rochester. N. Y. (Humphrey Bogart's mother & family "The Humphrey's" lived in Rochester. NY. ) Bogart grew up in Manhattan. Y and through his life would vacation to the family estate in Rochester and would use this car when visiting the family!Before the Humphrey's owned the car it belonged to the Canadian Police (which is not far from Rochester & you can see that the car still retains the original Police spotlight w/mirror). If you like beautiful & very rare cars here is a nice one!Fully rebuilt engine & mechanicals by Drake Engines in Rochester. (Over $8. 00+ spent! we have all receipts. ) Some parts have been rechromed. It is in nice "driver" condition. very good handling on the road and ready to drive to local shows. Have all side curtains & shop manuals & boxes of parts & club newsletters. Same Rochester owner for many years (he bought locally from Bogart's family). Elegant & very roomy car with large 6 cyl. engine. (rear passenger area is "limo" spacious with foot rest bar. but no "jump seats". Rear windshield makes it a nice ride in the back seat when driver chooses to open or completely drop down the front windshield to the cowl!Nice interior & beautiful wooden steering wheel. (6) ORIGINAL factory 19inch "STONE CRUSHER" WHEELS!!! (It would look amazing to have them chromed!) Imagine it with all (6) solid. large stone crusher wheels & side mounts in full chrome & whitewall tires!If you want a car that no one else in the whole world has. in ANY collection. THIS ONE IS IT! The ONLY one (1) known to still exist!Please email with any questions and you may come to see it in person if possible. As with all Antique & Classic cars - it is for sale AS-IS. WHERE IS. Non-refundable deposit with 24 hrs. Payment in full within 7 days. I HAVE 100% POSITIVE FEEDBACK from over 15 years on ebay! So you can buy with comfort. What is it worth? well unlike a Chrysler or Cadillac there are no other examples with which to compare prices. so I priced it at what I think is fair for a solid Phaeton Convertible. Please use the "BUY IT NOW" option if you know that you want it. or make a fair offer! I have 100% SOLD record. EVERY car that I have parted with over the years has sold quickly because I am fair. nbsp;many via the "buy it now" so it definitely will be sold!It is an elegant classic open car with dual side-mounted tires and a rare dual windshield with folding wings. Own a car that is the ONLY ONE KNOWN! That is truly Rare!Thank you! |
