Sedan
Chassis #: 1070470
Pierce-Arrow's acute need for financial stability led to their controversial merger of 1928 with Studebaker. This influx of cash funded the development of new models and provided the resources for a new eight-cylinder engine in 1929, which broke the company's long-standing reliance on six-cylinder power. During the Great Depression, the company was unwavering in its quest to provide luxury, exclusive automobiles to its discerning clientele. This 1933 Pierce-Arrow Sedan is from the Estate of the late Don Riddle, Jr., who purchased the car in Arizona in 2004. It was restored in the late 1990s, which included a new exterior finish, a new vinyl top, new chrome, and a new interior. The engine is an L-head, 366 cubic-inch eight-cylinder unit offering 135 horsepower. There is a three-speed manual transmission and four-wheel brakes.
In 2011, this car was offered for sale at the Hershey, PA auction presented by RM Auctions. The car was estimated to sell for $40,000 - $60,000 and was offered without reserve. As bidding came to a close, the car had been sold for the sum of $34,100 inclusive of the buyer's premium.
