Offered for sale is a very
rare 1913 White Motor Truck Speedster project! It is in exceptional condition. This truck has been in storage since the late
1960’s, and it is believed to have been originally a police wagon for the St.
Paul Minnesota Police department, that was later converted to a hose car for
the St. Paul Minn. Fire Department in 1916. Brakes are free and functional, engine spins free and the transmission and clutch operate and shifts well. ( we
have not made any attempt to run the engine ) The frame and hood are very straight and solid. The original brass
honeycomb radiator is also in amazing condition. The wood and wheels are also
very solid and in excellent shape with no apparent rot. The headlamps are in
excellent shape, however one lens is missing. The original builders plate is
missing and we have tried to find any stamped chassis number. We have been told
that White did
not stamp their frames until the early 1920's. There is an engine number
dating from 1916, and was likely installed during its rebuild for the Fire
Department. The truck is being sold on a bill of sale only. The steering box and column have been painstakingly repositioned , with a custom machined adaptor plate at the chassis, and collar assembly on the firewall. This speedster has huge
potential!
This is an extremely rare opportunity to acquire
an almost impossible find. Call or email with questions. 712-944-4900.
