    Just ran across this listing for a 1910 Pierce 48 to be sold at no reserve this Saturday by RM-Sotheby’s at their Fort Worth auction. Here’s a link: https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/carsforsale/pierce_arrow/48/1736378.html

    I’ve ridden in this car. It is smooth and spirited. At one of the

    “Shakedown Tours” that the Millers were instrumental in putting on,

    Rob had an impromptu contest with an Englishman in a 1911(?)

    Interstate racecar( a large 4 cylinder, built to replicate an

    Indianapolis 500 racer). I was doing above 60MPH when they left me in

    the dust. They rapidly were out of view. Don’t try this at home.

    This auction is taking place down the street from my house and was fortunate enough to gain access to view the cars today. Here are some “up-close and personal”” pictures of the car.”

    Hey Ben — Thanks much for the photos. Imagine, the auction just down the street from where you live. Wow.

    Are you thinking of trading in your Franklin on that Pierce? :-)

    Thanks all,

    I drive by the location of the auction daily. It was a pleasure to meet with old friends and see some spectacular cars.

    Scott – No thoughts of trading the Franklin…..yet (I kid, I kid). Still looking for the 20’s Dual-Value car.

    – Ben

    I have driven the car. It is really great on the road – amazing for a 1910 vehicle.

    Car only made that number after a long slow struggle. It was a GREAT car, but for a while it looked like it would not make 600.
