OT Question

Can anyone tell me what this car is. My guess, from google images is a late 30's chevy coupe, on the darkside of course.

Any idea what the general price would be to restore one? Original, no mods.

I can't get your link to work but if it's a auburn, a original one is fairly expensive. Several company's have made replicas over the years. Perhaps the best one is the Glen Pray's.
Here is a link to his website and it has some cars for sale.
Auburn Cord Duesenberg Co.
Pray also made some cord replicas. Here is a link to pics of my cord.

Actually, that is NOT an original Auburn. It is a replica built by Speedster Motorcars in 2002
