1927 Other Makes T BUCKET ROADSTER

This 1927 T-Bucket Roadster was the last car ever built by the legendary drag racer, Jeff Jahns. His family is also known for Jahns Racing Pistons. This car is extremely reliable, fast and fun. It is licensed for the street, can get over 40 Miles per Gallon, and will beat a Dodge Challenger Hellcat in the Quarter Mile. The last time Jeff raced this car, it ran an 11.05 at the Champion Raceway in Medford, OR at 118 miles an hour. Typical ¼ mile time of a Hellcat is 11.70. It is licensed as a 1927 with a clear title. Here is a very good article on Jeff.

This car was completed in 2008, and has not had many miles put on it since. I do know Jeff did drive it to car shows sometimes over a hundred miles away. It really gets the attention and thumbs up everywhere it goes. It is certainly a very special car I would love to keep, but I just don’t have the room for it right now. I always keep my cars garaged, as this car has always been. As with all used vehicles it will be sold “as-is”, so please ask any questions ahead of time, and please only bid if you have cash in hand. If you need to get a loan or want it professionally inspected, this must be done Before the Auction ends. I will need a 500 dollar deposit at the close of the auction by way of PayPal, with the balance due in the form of Cash, Cashiers Check or Bank Transfer within 5 Business Days. All checks will need to clear my bank before the car can be released. It will come with a Clear Oregon State Title in my Name.

Thanks, TJ
