1913 Chalmers Model 18 Navigation
The Model 18, introduced in 1913, was the company's premier offering. It was available in six different body styles and powered by a 54-horsepower F-head six-cylinder engine.
Jim Dillon is the earliest known owner of this Model 18 Touring. It was purchased by Matt Browning in 1988 and remained in his care until his collection was sold at the Pebble Beach Auctions in 2000. Harris Laskey purchased it at that sale. The current caretaker acquired it in September 2006.
The car is painted in a two-tone burgundy combination with pinstriping accentuating the lines of the coachwork. In 2009, the engine was given a professional overhaul.
This Touring car has a dual head and side lamps, side-mounted spares, a touring trunk, a folding windshield, a Gray & Davis taillamp, Jordan Motometer, and Warner Speedometer.
In 2011, the car was offered for sale at the Gooding & Company auction in Scottsdale, Arizona. It was estimated to sell for $110,000 - $140,000. As bidding came to a close, the car had been sold for the sum of $104,500, inclusive of the buyer's premium.By Daniel Vaughan | Feb 2011
