The Oldest Cars At the Cincinnati Concours Also Impressed


 Imagine living to be 100 years old or even older. That's what the Antique Class at the 46th Cincinnati Concours d'Elegance has managed to do. To be in the class these cars had to be from 1924 or before. And while that can limit the number of vehicles available, the ones that were on the field at Ault Park were very impressive. On display was a 1911 Oldsmobile Limited which was the most expensive car that GM sold that year at $5000 ($165,000 adjusted for inflation) and this particular car was a prototype and is the only roadster that still exists. Also on the lawn was a 1906 Cadillac Model M Victoria Touring car which won Best In Class at the Keenland Concours d'Elegance in 2021, a 1916 Willys Overland 86 seven passenger convertible, and a 1916 Anderson Detroit Electric 60 Brougham whose care taker is only the second owner (and the owner has another Detroit Electric back at home).
