1930 Gardner Series 140 Sport Roadster

This sport roadster was first owned by a United States Naval officer who took the car with him on travels around the world. It was delivered to him on March 3rd 1930. When he sold it in 1967 to the Harrah Automobile Collection it had over 227,000 miles on the clock.

Its current owner, who coincidentally has the same name as his car, has owned it for over 40 years and completed a restoration in the mid-2010s. He acquired the car in 1973. The car made its Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance debut after the comprehensive restoration was completed in 2016.

This Gardner is finished in a two-tone combination of silver and black paintwork with a black canvas top. It has red pin-striping and chrome wire wheels. The passenger compartment and rumble seat are upholstered in red leather. Dual side-mounted spare tires with mirrors and a trunk rack complete the package. There are Eisenglass side curtains, an original toolset, and a canvas boot cover.

In 2013, this Gardner Model 140 was recognized as a Full Classic by the CCCA.
