Sad history about this car...It“s a 1911 Breese Paris Teardrop Roadster.
   
This car is #1 of 65 built. There are only 3 in existence, as car #4 thru #65 sunk on a ship, on the way to the USA. The car was designed by Robert Potter Breese. Top speed is 75 to 80 MPH. It takes quite a while to reach top speed and even longer to slow down. The transmission is a four-speed with reverse lockout. The intake and exhaust manifold's, heads and cylinders are a one-piece casting. Radiator cap is hand carved silver by BOFIL and is a one-of-a-kind.
