Sorry Randy, there was a little misunderstanding. The car was produced in 1927 or 28. The preowner told me, that the car stood about 30 years in a little private collection. In 2009 went from new jersey to antwerp, later to copenhagen. Later the auburn went to germany.

By this details can your lists tell something about the cars history?

During a few weeks I own an Auburn 6-66 AT. I want to restore the car. In my opinion, the car is in good condition. But I'm looking for persons who may help me with different parts and original details when shipped in 1928.

I have to say sorry for my bad english. I'm from germany and school also is far away.
