If it can be repaired, the windshield top bow and trim, followed by the hood and the vehicle number plate. Perhaps the reinforced frame if its in good condition, and perhaps the trunk lid.

It reappeared a few years later as a feature of overdrive. Pierce-Arrow had it in 1931, Packard I believe(?) waited until 1932 and offered it alone and in combination with the automatic clutch (early forerunner of Electromatic). Posted on: 2012/4/20 11:16

I wonder if somebody swooped in with Cash? My thoughts were if it didn't get any serious bids, and if it were cheap enough it would be buying and just arrive with a toolbox and a sawzall and unbolt/cut off anything salvageable and scrap the rest.
