Vintage Cars: huppmobile parts, hupmobile, e bay


Question
I have a 1925 or 1926 Huppmobile complete 4 cyl motor, transmission, hood and radiator. I don't know how to sell them or what the value of them might be. I don't even know if there is a demand for it. I've checked e-bay and just got confused. I can attach an image if it would help. Would you please advise me?

Answer
I can assist you with this. Pictures would be helpful, and the best way to sell these parts is to list them in the Hupp Club Parts Locator, a free service which all Hupp Club members see on a quarterly basis. I can provide you with the phone number and email address of the person who manages this, so that your ad can be listed.

Your 4 cylinder engine is from a Model R Hupmobile, which is the most numerous Hupmobile ever produced, over 170,000 of them from 1917 to 1925. There are many of them still around, and your parts would have value to anyone owning one. It's hard to establish a value without actually seeing the parts though.

If you can, send photos to my personal email address, rboberjr@yahoo.com, and provide me with contact info so that I can call you and give you personal advice.
