Default Model A-400-A lot # 550 HAS BEEN FOUND

Looking for the name of the new owner of the 400-A that sold at the RM Auction last October in Hershey.

Thanks.

I don't know but it sold for LESS then the 2 -180A's It was not a bad car at all. The Blue 180A [old Bruce Bone car] sold for upper 40's and the brown 180'A sold for upper 30's...400A was low 30's

Here's a link to the auction results. Once you find your car, call RM with the lot # and ask for contact information for the new owner.

I hate those 'artsy fartsy' type pictures. They only spotlight all the reproduction stuff. No interior or undercarriage photos!

it does show us that the gas gauge has started to leak.......if they didn't want to fix that easy-to-fix defect, at least they could have cleaned off the gum & varnish before photographing.

The owner John. M O'Quin From Houston, TX had about 900 cars in his collection.

I think the car was bought and put in storage and came out when he died and all were sold at auction.

I like all comments made here.

Owner has contacted me as he saw my request on the Barn.

Thanks Joop
