For Sale: 1934 - Jeez, For $600K You'd Think They'd At Least Dust It Off !!

Just can't stay away

Supposedly owned by Roy Acuff, Marty Robbins and Al Capone. Sure not presented very well.

You'd think that for that asking price, the least they could do would be do wash it! Looks like a (dare I say common?) 1103-753 Super 8 sedan, perhaps at a stretch a $40,000 car without the prior ownership babble unless it's documented. It won't be easy to locate the metal sidemount side covers, they are different from 1933.

I'm probably out of the loop with current prices but the prices for some of those mentioned at the bottom of his page look a bit high also.

You would think it would have a Packard radio and a Packard heater instead of the common South Wind. Maybe even a coat of polish.

Al Capone apparently had more cars than the IRS has deliquent taxpayers. The only ones I've seen that had a bona fide link to Capone were Cadillacs, though I suppose there were others.

It was also reported that Jesse & Frank James used the car in a robbery, and Napoleon used the car for victory parades.
