Unrestored 1911 Oldsmobile sells for $1.65 million at auction

In the year of 1911 Oldsmobile decided to launch a limited series touring car, and only 159 were ever made. Now 96 years later only three are known to exist and the bizarre thing is an unrestored model was sold last week at the Vintage Motor Cars Hershey auction, and fetched a massive $1.65 million.

Nothing has been done to this original 1911 Oldsmobile; just looking at the photos you can see that this 96 year old vehicle still has its original tires. The car has been sat in a museum for the past 50 years after it was discovered in a barn in the 50’s. The 1911 Oldsmobile has had three owners since new and the second owner even though about restoring the car to its former glory, but he only got as far as buying a set of exact tires for the car but did not put them on.

It is not known what the owner of this $1.65 million vehicle will do; maybe he will restore it to how it was like way back in 1911.
