1926 Willy's Knight model 70 sedan, very solid original car that has the the 6 cyl valve sleeve engine completely rebuilt.The car drives nicely down the road with nearly new Michelin tires, wood spoke wheels in good condition, 3 speed transmission. 6 volt system with starter for the engine, all lights work. The paint on the body is believed to be original (but faded) with the red pinstripe still visible under the door edge, fenders have been touched up from scratched and dents. The wood in the body is solid and original, doors shut nicely and show no hinge looseness. All the glass is good in doors and windshield. The interior upholstery is believed to be original with a repair on the back seat from sun damage on the rear top. The top vinyl and headliner has been replaced. The odometer shows 25,322 miles. There is a oil change sticker in the door from Clinton, Iowadated 8-1-49. The exhaust system (needs replacement) is believed to be original with a heater in the rear floor that works with the exhaust being diverted through piping for warmth. Very unique car with tones of the gangster days. This same year and model was used in the Untouchables TV series with Elliot Ness. We have added fake bullet holes to the passenger side door for effects. There are a few things missing from wear and tear but this car is 93 years old.
