"The Auburn Boattail Speedster is considered one of the most striking cars to ever hit the open road! As Auburn dedicated itself to art-deco design styles, it employed some of the best designers of the era. With the model 851 and 852 Speedster credits going to designer Gordon Buehrig, very few were ever made before Auburn had to close its doors forever. Because of this, they became highly sought after for highline collectors, and reproduced heavily in great number of replica car manufacturers for enthusiasts. One of the original manufactures was Antique Autos of America based out of Largo, FL, who was already known as a prominent classic car restoration facility. It produced some of the most highly acknowledged Auburn and Cord replicas ever manufactured. It was largely under the supervision of project manager, Michael Atkins, who now owns and operates Speedster Motorcars in their Clearwater, FL facility, that would go on to produce one of the very best Boattail Speedster replicas ever manufactured from the ground up!
Speedster Motorcars produced this striking 1936 Auburn Boattail 852 Speedster replica in 2004. Finished in a sporting shade of Bright Yellow over Light Tan Leather upholstery and Black canvas top, this example is powered by a brand new Vortec 5.3L V8, 4L60E 4-speed automatic transmission and 9"" rear end with 3.70:1 gearing! Complete with a host of factory equipment that includes custom chassis, adjustable coil-over independent front suspension with tubular upper/lower control arms, staggered 15"" wire spoke wheels wrapped in whitewall tires measuring 235/70R15 at the front and 275/60R15 at the rear, machine-turned aluminum dash, air conditioning, power rack & pinion steering, power 4-wheel disc brakes, power seat, power windows, tilt steering column, Lokar shift knob, stainless brake lines, transmission oil cooler, air horns, Stewart-Warner gauges, cowl lights with side mirrors, front fog lights, simulated engine exhaust ducting, hood ornament & badging, billet pedals and vents, seatbelts, down exhaust with twin exhaust turndowns! Safety items include emergency handbrake and turn signals.
The car survives today having been driven only 5,187 miles since completion! Fitted with a full convertible top and available canvas tonneau cover, this Speedster would be just as much at home driving across the country as it would be parked at a local car show. The car is titled a 2004 Auburn Speedster and should therefore have no issues registering at the DMV. The build quality of this car is still apparent today; all interior touch points and well as all exterior cosmetics are in very good condition. We found only the chrome frame surrounding the windshield beginning to fail and lose its luster. It will also come with extra chrome headlight trim rings, side marker light housings, spare tire, bottle jack, and 4-way lug wrench. This neo-classic is sure to turn heads anywhere it goes and should make for many years of reliable transportation! For any additional questions, please feel free to give us a ring! Act quickly!
