Marmon set a world record for 440 hours of continuous car driving in 1929.

Just under 400 or so cars with the Marmon V16 would be built due to the fact that it was released in 1931, here's one on a stand, the Marmon was one of just two production V16 automobiles ever built

 

It’s due to cross the auction block on the 7th of October with a price estimate of $25,000 to $40,000 USD.

my first guess was a fire fighter's competition rig, but I was wrong, it's a 1952 Marmon Herrington Crash Tender

1941 Ford bus, with Marmon Herrington front wheel drive, and a grill in the shape of a Ma Bell telephone co logo, used on military bases for the enlisted to call home before shipping out to fight WW2 Thanks Jeff!

It has been parked for over 25 years and was driven to where it sits now, it was started probably 10 years ago. It has a lot of rust, but would really be cool restored to its original beauty. Approx. 25 ft. long, 6' 8 " wide and 8 ' tall.

IF that looks familiar, the sailors using a telephone bus, it's because I posted about it last January! https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2018/01/most-people-who-were-in-military-before.html

Buck Mook's stars and stripes cars

Retired Ford designer, Howard “Buck” Mook, is absolutely proud of the 1974 Mustang II because it was one of the best selling Mustangs ever, 386,000 of them, the most of any Mustangs since 1968 and one of the best years ever in the car’s now half century history.

Let's take a moment to admire what Mook drew, which is far closer to the AMX3 than the 1974 Mustang II

Mook is active in the Detroit area car collecting community, bringing his cars to local shows and serving as a judge at events like the Eyes On Design and Concours of America shows.

His resume includes some Ford’s F series trucks and while still in design school he helped customizing great Dean Jeffries create the Monkeemobile and Green Hornet Black Beauty television cars. Buck was responsible for the three-door fastback shape of the Mustang II (Dick Nesbitt drew the notchback variant).

"I must have been 9 or 10 years old when my parents gave me a book all about Ford car designs," Mook said. "Since then all I wanted to do was design cars and I set out with that mission in my mind growing up."

At 69, Mook remembers how integral the car was throughout his life.

"My parents started one of the very first car clubs in 1947," said Mook. "Cars were always around and a big part of my life."

the only known 1927 Marmon Model L was recently discovered, and pulled out of a garage in Illinois, where it had been hibernating since the 1960s

About 50 years ago, Kent Cherpeske was able to acquire the two-door Marmon from John Warfield in Princeton, Al Cherpeske said. They drove Al’s 1962 Oldsmobile to the man’s house, where they helped him dig away dirt to open the barn doors and hitch the Marmon to the Oldsmobile. They towed it to the Cherpeskes’ parent’s home on Zinc Street and placed it inside a large garage

there is quite the variety of engines in Dykes Automotive Encyclopedia, as you'd expect. Interesting to read about the unusual ones, like, the rotary valve

Stutz, Duesenburg, and Packard straight 8s, Marmon 16 cyl, Cadillac 16 cyl and the Franklin air cooled.... besides the photos, there is a full description of the unique features, and so on.
