1932 Auburn 12-160A Phaeton Sedan

  • Chassis Number: BB338
This Model 12-160A has a two-tone red color scheme with orange pinstriping and a tan canvas top and a matching cover for the rear-mounted trunk. The car is fitted with Trippe driving lights, and dual side-mount spares that carry mirrors at the top. The interior is upholstered in brown leather with tan contrasting tan carpets. The odometer currently shows 2,025 miles which may well be the mileage accumulated since the restoration. A Philco accessory radio is fitted, installed under the dashboard with the control head on the steering column.

In 2010, this Phaeton Sedan was offered for sale at the Vintage Motor Cars of Meadow Brook event presented by RM Auctions. The car was estimated to sell for $100,000 - $150,000. As bidding came to a close, the car had been sold for $110,000, including the buyer's premium.
