1931 Packard Standard Eight 833 5-Passenger Convertible Sedan

Lot # 131 (Sale Order: 28 of 110)      

Chassis Number: 483111 Engine Number: 327324 As evidenced by the number of Packards in his collection, Charles H. Brown was a great proponent of the brand, a trait which he inherited, and this late Eight, in its rarer configuration complements the grouping of Twelve and Eight Cylinder open cars. The Packard was purchased by Mr. Brown at a regional automobile auction in 2004, prior to which it had spent a number of years in Spanish ownership. Before this it is known to have been in New York State in the 1980s and most probably had remained in the U.S. from new until this time. Of particular pertinence is the fact that it retains quality accessories associated with the brand, including an Adonis mascot, C.M. Hall headlamps and a pair of Triple Speed driving lights, as well as the factory option of dual side mounts. The top and interior have recently been carefully redone to original factory specifications by Seattle expert upholsterer John Parkhurst. Parkhurst’s cars have been shown at Pebble Beach often and the quality is fantastic. Looking every bit the ‘Classic Era’ automobile that it is, the Packard, is considered a ‘Full Classic’ by the Classic Car Club of America and would be eligible for their popular CARavan tours.

1955 Oldsmobile Rocket 88 Convertible

Lot # 132 (Sale Order: 29 of 110)      

Beautifully Restored – Rocket V8 – Spectacular! Oldsmobile introduced the 88 badge in 1949. It was named to complement the already-existing 76 and 98, and took the place of the Oldsmobile Straight-8 engine 78 in the model lineup. The new car used the same new Futuramic B-body platform as the Oldsmobile Straight-6 engine 76 but paired it with the powerful new Rocket V8 engine. This combination of a relatively small light body and large, powerful engine made it a precursor to the muscle car. The Rocket 88 vaulted Oldsmobile from a somewhat staid, conservative car to a performer that became the one to beat on the NASCAR (National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing) circuits. It won six of the nine NASCAR late-model division races in 1949, 10 of 19 in 1950, 20 of 41 in 1952, and was the first real “King of NASCAR.” The 88 enjoyed a great success, inspiring a popular 1950s slogan, “Make a Date with a Rocket 88?, and also a song, “Rocket 88?, often considered the first rock and roll record. Starting with the trunk-lid emblem of the 1950 model, Oldsmobile would adopt the rocket as its logo, and the 88 name would remain in the Olds lineup until the late 1990s, almost until the end of Oldsmobile itself. The 1955 models were heavily face-lifted with new grillework, taillights and body-side chrome. Horsepower for the 324-cubic-inch Rocket V8 increased to 185 for 88s and 202 for Super 88s. Our 1955 Oldsmobile Super 88 Convertible is a restored gem. Featuring a beautiful two-toned red and white exterior, with a gem red interior – Ready for the road or show. The 325CID Rocket V8 engine and hydromatic transmission truly give this massive car some punch and make it a blast to drive. The engine compartment is faithfully detailed and it looks like new. The car includes fender skirts and features a traffic light viewer on the dashboard. Recent restoration in 2012 included new paint and a new convertible top. Overall this Oldsmobile is in superb mechanical condition.

1930 Cadillac V16 Landaulette Deluxe

Lot # 133 (Sale Order: 30 of 110)      

The ex-London Motor Show, One off, Coachwork by Vanden Plas Chassis no. 702297 ‘The sum total of the V16's features was so impressive that even the Europeans found it impossible to describe its super silent operation without using terms such as “magnificent” and “outstanding”.’ – Robert C Ackerson, Standard Catalog of Cadillac. Right-hand drive chassis number ’702297' was completed in 1930 with ‘Saloon Landaulette De Luxe’ coachwork by Vanden Plas and sold new via Messrs Lendrum & Hartman of Albemarle Street in London’s West End, the UK’s official importer for General Motors’ makes Buick, Cadillac, LaSalle and Marquette. ’702297' featured at that year’s London Motor Show at Olympia prior to delivery to its first owner, the Hon Arthur Ernest Guinness of the eponymous brewing dynasty. Noteworthy features on this car include a flat windscreen, slender window uprights, ‘suicide’ rear doors and ‘trafficator’-type turn signals. There is an internal division and intercom, and the interior also features extensive inlaid walnut woodwork, rear-compartment speedometer and the rare, split instrument panel found in the so-called ‘Madame X’ Cadillacs bodied by Fleetwood. The Cadillac’s immediately post-Guinness history is not known but in 1959 it was advertised for sale in the Cadillac & LaSalle Club’s magazine ‘The Self Starter’ by Mr Jeffrey Watts of Levittown, Pennsylvania. ’702297' next appeared at a ‘Movieland – Cars of the Stars’ auction in 1974, by which time it was in need of extensive restoration. Later the car passed to ‘Cadillac Jim’ Pearson of Kansas City, who sold it on to collector James C Leake of Tulsa, Oklahoma in the mid/late-1970s. The V16 was restored while in Mr. Leake’s ownership, the odometer reading at that time being circa 56,000 miles. It later made the journey back across the Atlantic, finding a new home in a European private collection, and is presented in generally very good condition, running exceptionally well. This one-off Euro bodied V-16 is extremely significant and will appreciate as collector cars continue to go through the roof in value. An excellent car to own and drive while representing money in the bank. Mileage assumed to be actual.

1959 Ford Fairlane Retractable

Lot # 136 (Sale Order: 33 of 110)      

Jerry Costacos is the son of Greek immigrants and was born in Longview, WA in 1926. He graduated from West Seattle High School in 1944 and immediately enlisted in the U.S. Navy, serving on the U.S.S. California and seeing combat in the South Pacific including such campaigns as the battles of Okinawa and East China Sea. After the Navy he enrolled at the University of Washington, graduating in 1950. His love of cars led him to start leasing and operating a parking garage on 4th & Columbia in downtown Seattle in 1954, where he began renting the three cars he owned, a 1953 Chevrolet convertible, a 1954 Plymouth, and a 1954 Chevrolet. He eventually purchased the garage and two adjacent ones, and built his rental car business to 600 cars, eventually merging with the Budget Rent-A-Car franchise for Washington and Oregon in 1983. From the time he was a child, Jerry loved cars. He loved riding in them and was fascinated with all the different body styles and engines. Before he was able to legally drive, at age 14 and unbeknownst to his parents, Jerry bought a 1927 Pontiac for $10. After a few months of driving it and parking in front of a friend's house so his parents wouldn't know, they became wise to this and made Jerry sell the car, which he turned a $3 profit on by selling it for $13. While in high school during WWII, gas rationing allowed each car only 4 gallons per week, which wasn't enough for Jerry, so he bought two cars, a '30 Chevrolet and a '37 Oldsmobile, giving him 8 gallons per week. He also learned to double the weekly mileage in the Chevrolet by mixing the gasoline with a concoction of cleaning solvent and mothballs. With this mixture lowering the octane, the car could only be compression started so he always had to park it on a hill. Being in the car rental business, he continued to be fascinated with all the new trends and changes in each new model year, and enjoyed driving all the different brands and models. From time to time, he would come across a classic car that he liked and bought it. He loved the 1959 Ford Retractable while having two of them in his rental fleet when they were new to the market as he was fascinated with the new technology. In the 70's, he saw one that was owned by his friend Allan Faltus who owned a Chrysler-Dodge-Plymouth Dealership in Ellensburg, WA. He continued reminding Allan that if he ran across one for sale, to call him. In 1976 he received a call from Allan that he knew of one for sale, and asked if he wanted it. He had checked the car out and felt it was worth the asking price and Jerry bought the car sight unseen and sent two of his drivers to Ellensburg to pick it up. At age 87, Jerry continues to drive to work at the garage six days a week. He's been married to his wife Eva for 56 years and lives in West Seattle. This past January 1, he began his 61st year at his place of business.

Lot # 139 (Sale Order: 36 of 110)      

One Owner from New. Fully Documented Low, Low Miles. This 1972 Limited Edition Baja Beetle Champion S.E. was one of only 1,000 produced in 1972 to commemorate the Baja off-road race success in the Mexican 1000 from 1967-1971. Rare and desirable, this Volkswagen Baja is finished in special edition “Marathon Metallic” (metallic blue 96M) paint, black ‘Baja’ side racing stripes, special edition sports wheels, and Baja Champion emblem on the passenger side glove box. Purchased new on May 23rd, 1972 by its first and only owner, this Baja has a strong documented history and has been loved and well-maintained for over 40 years. During the four decades in its owner’s care this Baja has been serviced accordingly and as a result, runs and drives smoothly. Maintenance for the Baja includes a carburetor replacement in 2011, new battery in 2009, a new rear windshield, new spark plugs, a fan belt replacement as well as other small repairs. Although some original parts have been replaced, the owner has kept all of the original components of the vehicle, which have been boxed and stored.

Even the ad in the paper which attracted the buyer to the car has been retained.

Mechanically, the Baja is in great condition. It starts and runs easily and reliable. The interior is in excellent condition, and the upholstery and headliner show very well.

1948 Chrysler Town & Country Convertible

Lot # 141 (Sale Order: 38 of 110)      

1948 Chrysler Town & Country Convertible This is the same model and color Chrysler “woodie” convertible that Clark Gable and Carol Lombard owned right after WWII. The current owner has had it for over 25 years. The body and paint are original, and the owner believes the interior is as well. The engine is virtually new, as it was rebuilt and balanced with original new-old-stock Chrysler Mopar Parts around 10 years ago. It runs so smoothly that, standing next to the car after it is started, you can’t tell that the engine is running. It is that quite. Since the engine was rebuilt, it has been driven less than 100 miles per year to “exercise” it. Only 59,900 miles. It has been stored in a dry garage. In the last five years the car has been driven only once a year in a parade.

1965 Bristol Double Decker Bus

Lot # 148 (Sale Order: 44 of 110)      

This bus was built (in October 1965) for Western National Omnibus Company (Fleet #2097), was exported to the US in 1978 and spent some time in Mobile, Alabama before being brought to Tacoma by Harold LeMay. Lodekka’s were not operated by any London-based transport companies (standard double-deckers were used). The Western National Omnibus Company operated in the southwest of England, specifically between Cheltenham and Penzance. In 1949 the company was nationalized, then in 1983 privatized and absorbed by other companies. The red double-decker buses in London have become an icon of Britain. Bristol-built buses have a reputation the world over for longevity and reliability. This is partly due to the quality and care with which they were built and partly due to a reliance on tried and tested technology. The Lodekka was an innovation for which the railways were largely responsible; the number of low-clearance railway bridges that had been constructed during the period in which the railways were being developed meant that uncomfortable ‘low bridge’ double-deck bodies had been constructed with an upper deck with four seats in a row and a side gangway with limited headroom. These were very unpopular with the travelling public so, the Lodekka addressed this issue by a clever design in the 1920s. The Lodekka’s running gear was kept low down in the chassis, thus allowing the lower deck gangway to be lower. This in turn led to an overall reduction in height comparable with a standard ‘low bridge’ model. The Lodekka, though technically sophisticated for its time, proved to be an excellent vehicle and many still exist. Although never sold on the open market, many still exist either in preservation or in use all around the world.

He had always loved the '36 Ford as it was a very popular car among young people when he was in high school, along with the '31 Model A and '32 V8 Ford. At age 87, Jerry continues to drive to work at the garage six days a week. He's been married to his wife Eva for 56 years and lives in West Seattle. This past January 1, he began his 61st year at his place of business.

1941 Chevrolet Master Deluxe Business Coupe

Lot # 151 (Sale Order: 46 of 110)      

An unqualified hit with buyers and an immediate sales success, the 1941 Chevrolet model line-up featured newly redesigned bodies by Harley Earl’s acclaimed GM Art and Colour Section, with similar design cues as those on the more-expensive Buick line. Riding upon a longer 116-inch wheelbase, the new Chevrolets provided improved passenger room and comfort, with interiors delivering three additional inches of hip room. Deft styling tweaks included hidden running boards and blending of the headlamps into each front fender. Engineering, long a strong suit of GM and Chevrolet, was characteristically strong with modern independent front suspensions and hydraulic braking. The 235 cubic inch OHV inline six-cylinder engine of the 1941 Chevrolet Master DeLuxe and Special DeLuxe lines was heavily updated with a cylinder-head redesign and a slight compression-ratio increase to 6.5:1, bringing rated horsepower to 90. Archrival Ford seems to have taken the opportunity at this point to claim that it had rated its own “Flathead” V-8 too low and raised its own power rating to match the Chevy “Stovebolt.” Additional Chevrolet engine upgrades included new pistons and revised valves, rocker arms, and an improved water-pump design. With the growing European war, conflict looming in the Pacific, and President Roosevelt’s speeches referring to the United States as the “arsenal of democracy,” Chevrolet advertised its powerful and famously reliable engine the "Victory Six." Further heightening the 1941 Chevrolet line’s considerable appeal, the cars are renowned for their solid build quality and legendary durability. While many cars of the immediate pre-war era were used mercilessly or hot rodded and modified for drag racing or stock-car competition after the war, this 1941 Chevrolet Master Deluxe Business Coupe emerged unscathed from those fates. Thankfully retaining its factory-stock body and excellent flowing lines, the Chevrolet is a handsome and very mild custom, with complete new electrical wiring, upholstery, carpeting, and exterior paint. The period style pleated upholstery is particularly noteworthy with the addition of large white diamond patterns at all seat backs. The consignor reports that the chrome was recently restored during 2012. Riding nicely on a set of chrome wheels with “baby moon” hubcaps, the Chevrolet’s quality is confirmed by three First in Class awards.

1931 Ford Model A Roadster

Lot # 155 (Sale Order: 49 of 110)      

Jerry Costacos is the son of Greek immigrants and was born in Longview, WA in 1926. He graduated from West Seattle High School in 1944 and immediately enlisted in the U.S. Navy, serving on the U.S.S. California and seeing combat in the South Pacific including such campaigns as the battles of Okinawa and East China Sea. After the Navy he enrolled at the University of Washington, graduating in 1950. His love of cars led him to start leasing and operating a parking garage on 4th & Columbia in downtown Seattle in 1954, where he began renting the three cars he owned, a 1953 Chevrolet convertible, a 1954 Plymouth, and a 1954 Chevrolet. He eventually purchased the garage and two adjacent ones, and built his rental car business to 600 cars, eventually merging with the Budget Rent-A-Car franchise for Washington and Oregon in 1983. From the time he was a child, Jerry loved cars. He loved riding in them and was fascinated with all the different body styles and engines. Before he was able to legally drive, at age 14 and unbeknownst to his parents, Jerry bought a 1927 Pontiac for $10. After a few months of driving it and parking in front of a friend's house so his parents wouldn't know, they became wise to this and made Jerry sell the car, which he turned a $3 profit on by selling it for $13. While in high school during WWII, gas rationing allowed each car only 4 gallons per week, which wasn't enough for Jerry, so he bought two cars, a '30 Chevrolet and a '37 Oldsmobile, giving him 8 gallons per week. He also learned to double the weekly mileage in the Chevrolet by mixing the gasoline with a concoction of cleaning solvent and mothballs. With this mixture lowering the octane, the car could only be compression started so he always had to park it on a hill. Being in the car rental business, he continued to be fascinated with all the new trends and changes in each new model year, and enjoyed driving all the different brands and models. From time to time, he would come across a classic car that he liked and bought it. As the '31 Model A was a favorite from his high school years, Jerry had always wanted one. In the 90's, he learned that a childhood friend named Bob Smith had a '31 Model A. He continued bugging his friend to sell it to him and after 10 years, Bob agreed and Jerry had his Model A. At age 87, Jerry continues to drive to work at the garage six days a week. He's been married to his wife Eva for 56 years and lives in West Seattle. This past January 1, he began his 61st year at his place of business.
