Description:

1928 AUTO RED BUG
This vehicle was actually legal for the road, when new. This particular example was discovered at the Hershey AACA Fall National meet a few years ago. It came out of Connecticut. The person that sold it to me said that his father had put up in the loft of their barn 40-50 years earlier. It is Auto Red Bug # 04607. The motor that was originally with this vehicle got separated from it before the former owner's father owned it. With it came three motors. Two are Smith Motor Wheels and the third is not. Everything related to the Auto Red Bug seen in the photos comes with it. Two of the motors turn over. The one that looks rusty does not. There are no lights with it. There is no title. It will be sold on a Bill of Sale only. The underside appears to have its original varnish. The red paint on the wheels and the metal pieces was brushed on probably 40 or so years ago. One of the old tires on it may even be original to it (the Goodyear shown in the photos). The other side has a BF Goodrich on it. Again, I make no representations as I know little or nothing about these vehicles. My name is Smith and that's why I bought it. It appears to have never been left outside. It appears to have never been significantly damaged. This is a very cool thing and appears to be something that can easily be restored or possibly just preserved.
SOLD AS-IS. It may or may not actually be a 1928. I do not know. SOLD FOB - Lynchburg, Virginia. Serious buyers are encouraged to come and see it. Call or text me (two-one-five 906 seven-zero-zero-six).
