1929 Minerva AK Navigation
This Minerva is equipped with the six-liter, six-cylinder, Knight, double sleeve valve engine. Prized by luxury automakers for its silence, smoothness, and flexibility, it could push this 5,300-pound car to 70 mph. Minervas were very expensive when new, costing more than $20,000. Hibbard and Darrin bodied this model in aluminum, a very expensive metal at the time. This car is a past winner at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance in 1998 and has only had two owners since 1939.
