A blog about my the history, acquisition and operation of my 1911 Model 62 Stanley Steamer.

Another Stanley at auction

Another Stanley just rolled across the auction block on March 9th with a hammer price of $134,750.00. I always find it odd when there are blatant issues that should have been addressed prior to taking the pictures used in the auction. Case in point, this Stanley has one perch pole that has clearly become disconnected and it appears that there is some sort of strapping wrapped around the outer ends of the rear axle, perhaps from shipping. I guess I'm asking to much to think that someone with some knowledge of vehicle would look at it before the pictures were taken.
