1926 McFarlan Twin Valve Six Navigation
From its start, the McFarlan was an impressive vehicle intended for the luxury market. Its 572 cubic inch engine, thought to be the largest displacement engine available on a production car at certain points in the 1920s, had triple ignition, twin valves, six cylinders, and three spark plugs per cylinder.
This car was purchased new by Connecticut's then-governor John Harper Trumbull. Additional owners of the car have included Cebert Holmes, Jack Passey, and Otis Chandler. The current caretaker has owned the car for approximately two decades.
