1935 Auburn 851 Cabriolet

The distinctive 1935 Auburn 851 Cabriolet is a classic vehicle with its roots deeply planted in the golden age of American automobile craftsmanship. This elegant roadster showcases its vintage charm with a striking body designed by Gordon Buehrig, featuring a long, sweeping front fender, distinctive vertical grille, and a rakish rear deck balanced by a pair of dual-spare tire mounts. Produced in the heyday of Auburn Automobile Company's "Speedsters," this 851 Cabriolet boasts an opulent two-seater design, perfect for those seeking a luxurious open-air riding experience. Under its sweeping hood sits a powerful inline-eight-cylinder engine, delivering approximately 120 horsepower to drive the rear wheels through a three-speed manual transmission. As one of fewer than 500 surviving examples built in Auburn, Indiana during its inaugural year, this classic ride stands as a testament to American automotive innovation and style from an era long past.
