1935 Auburn 851

This 1935 Auburn Model 851, Supercharged, Boat Tail Speedster was purchased over 50 years ago. The 1935-36 Speedster was designed by Gordon Buehrig and is recognized as one of the outstanding designs of the 20th Century.

The Speedster is powered by a supercharged Lycoming Straight-8 engine and is capable of speeds over 100 miles per hour.

The car was restored to its original maroon paint formula in 2010 and 2011 by Brian Joseph at Classic & Exotic Service, Inc.
