Three million seven hundred thousand. Plus restoration cost. Impressive sum for a Pierce!
That’s exciting. Thirty years ago we had to listen to those Packard guys talk about how little our cars were worth. With Pierce 66’s going for over a million dollars, and the money that I have received for some open Pierces lately, the Packard guys can go back to grinding their flat crankshafts. (That’s what my dad called the ’31 Packard Phaeton I dragged home) …”Whaddya gonna do with that flat crankshaft SOB?” God rest his soul, he was a pretty good old wrench in his own right.
Let’s hope this is the start of collectors and enthusiasts giving the PAMC the recognition and desirability all Pierce cars deserve.
As I’ve always said “Packard’s may be pretty, but Pierce-Arrows are impressive!”
