Cut down into a truck style as was done to many. This truck / car was used as a break down wagon . Has 4 wheel power assist brakes, no reg for many years. Alloy rim from one head light missing. What would it be worth?

I had a 1926 Chrysler 4 tourer in 1959. It cost 25 quid at the time, all original and a good runner. As a bonus - it could drag off the nurses Ford Model A.
Hope this helps! lol

The whole front end is there , plus the back seat squab / lower section . Just from the back of drivers seat has been closed in , and steel roof . http://www.studebakerpictures.com/Studebaker.1925.Duplex.Phaeton.ER6.html This is the model , but right hand drive. And has solid steel wheels not the wooden spokes.

Tell us about the power assist brakes. Surely this is not standard? Just having 4 wheel brakes was a big thing in 1925, let alone power assistance. Wouldn??

Power brakes were stock standard on this car , driven off the gear box , so at very slow speed you need to allow room to pull up, rods apply the brakes, onto the big drum surface.also as most of the cars at that time , hand brake is on drive shaft so not used while in motion , only as a braking brake.

Where is he, How do I contact or can you point him to this thread , Cheers thank you.
The Chrysler had 4 wheel hydraulic brakes with bands that went around the outside of the drums. Like the Studebaker, hand brake worked on the drive-shaft at the rear of the gearbox, It also had a lockup gear lever position that engaged reverse and second together.

That was a little bit tongue'n'cheek mate. He's more into old newer ones. But hey - give him a call.
that photo is a buick that my late uncle owned ,it was cut down to a wrecker in the 50's . the estate listed it on T.M . it sold on auction for $8250. might give you an idea .
