Tony:  These two are running on Ebay right now. Looks like they made more of these than I thought.

I've been watching them.  Tomslik watches for me too ( or he is a closet Crosley car guy)  :shock:


Orange one is listed as a 1941 .  It really is a 1947 or 48. I admit I have almost built a similar car for the street.  The pre-war ( early 1940's) Crosleys were waaay different.

I was gonna build an old gasser style Crosley with  axle out front. I thought it would have all the creature comforts though.... windows , a/c , heat , etc..... LOL


The gray Crosley unit is listed as built by Kelvinator .  That is completely incorrect.  Crosleys were built by the Crosley Motors corp.  That one has a 1949 / 50 front sheet metal on it.


There are a couple of stock Crosleys on ebay  that look fairly nice and complete.  Some body panels just sold that were supposed to be NOS replacement panels for a Crosley.  That is something I have never seen before
