Information on the 1932 Marmon Sixteen

Howard Marmon was a brilliant engineer, who built his first car in 1902. In 1931, he completed his masterpiece, a 200bhp state-of-the-art, overhead valve V-16. It was an all-aluminum engine that displaced nearly 500 cubic-inches and could propel these cars to an almost effortless 100 mph. The Marmon Sixteen could even out-accelerate the legendary Model J Duesenberg! The economic realities of the Depression led to Marmon's demise in 1933. The current owner's father purchased this car in 1948, and it was awarded the AACA President's Award for the best restored car 1921-42 in 2008.
