1931 Pierce-Arrow Model 41 Convertible Sedan

  • Coachwork by LeBaron
  • Chassis Number: 3050251
1931 Pierce-Arrow Model 41 Navigation
This example is a convertible sedan with coachwork by LeBaron. It is one of just 33 built over three years and is the oldest known of only four sold in 1931. It was purchased by the Browning Collection from James Weston of San Francisco in 1972 and restored in the 1990s in its colors of light and dark brown with orange pinstriping. It was bought from the Browning Estate in 2000 and shown at Pebble Beach in 2001 where it won a class award.

The car is well equipped with the kneeling archer hood ornament, a metal trunk, twin side-mount spares with contoured mirrors, Tilt-Ray headlamps, dual running boards, dual horns, and an Arrowlite taillight. Inside, there are adjustable leather seats and footrests for the rear passengers.

In 2011, the car was offered for sale at the Monterey auction in California presented by RM Auctions. The car was estimated to sell for $225,000 - $275,000. Bidding reached $145,000 but was not enough to satisfy the car's reserve. It would leave the auction unsold.
