1909 Pierce-Arrow 36 HP Three-Passenger Runabout

This Pierce-Arrow 36 HP Model UU has a history going back to the 1940s when its chassis was discovered on Long Island. After some years with interim coachwork it was restored in 2002 with this exacting re-creation of Pierce-Arrow's cataloged Runabout coachwork. This was the pre-World War I vision of a sports car: low, elemental, powerful and responsive. Right-hand drive, like all proper automobiles of the time, it is awash in bright-work. Everything from the brass radiator, copper plated Rushmore acetylene headlights, brass solar kerosene sidelights, bold eagle radiator mascot, steeply raked copper steering column, drum-style speedometer to the hood's copper plated highlights. It is a superb and very fast touring car, which has been driven extensively since restoration.
