Our friends at RM Sotheby's have a number of pre-war cars on offer, including a Tucker, but only one brass-era car. This 1907 Ford Model K Roadster is said to have been through only two families' ownership.

The fact that Henry Ford hated the Model K is well known, never the less, Ford was an early American producer of the six-cylinder engine. This car, chassis K952, is noted as being restored in the late 1950's - I guess that explains the awful color it wears today. The catalog states that there are believed to be just ten or so surviving Model K roadsters. I can't remember seeing more than three in my travels. It's a rare and interesting car that deserves to be restored.
