Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1929 Auburn 120 Eight Cabriolet is a rare example of Alan Leamy's design. It features a well-preserved older restoration with period-correct colors, original components, and is offered from long-term ownership since 1978, where it was cared for and actively shown.

Condition 

7

While the car has been restored, the description notes it is an "older" restoration, suggesting it may not be up to concours-level standards. The car has been well-maintained and has won awards, but the listing does not specify the extent of any wear and tear since the restoration. Therefore, the condition is likely between Very Good and Excellent.
