The white 1919 is Ray Warhank's old Montana 500 car. It was later used by his son Dave in the Montana 500. Here is a video of it in action.

Ray was in the first Montana 500 in 1961.
That's one cool video! HA!

Lewistown, MT
406-538-5125 or 406-366-5125
Note that several of the cars are listed twice. There is only ONE Star coupe, ONE 26 T coupe, etc.
The cars are pretty nice, old decent quality restorations, not perfect but good drivers. Ray died probably ten or fifteen years ago, he did most of these in the 60's, 70's and maybe early 80's. I never knew them that well, his son Dave has a lot of T stuff and Indian motorcycle stuff.
They will probably bring huge money, far more than they would at a big auction where there were lots of other cars to bid on. The local collectors --- of which there are many -- will pay more for these than they would for number one restorations somewhere else. Crops are good, cattle prices are high, oil is doing just fine, there is lots of money around, Shobe will have Internet bidders who will cherry pick anything that doesn't bring absolute top dollar. Shobes run a good auction, they are more antique and farm auctioneers but they won't leave a nickel on the table anywhere on this one.
I'm going just to see the stuff and wish I was rich. I'd love to have the little IHC pickup.
Steve, thanks for posting. Stan which IH are you interested in, I like the thirty seven the best.
Wishing I was back in Big sky Country.
Happy motoring, Warren
I like all the IHC pickups but I probably like that little flat nosed 36 the best. I doesn't make much difference, I can't afford any of them.
Stan,
Your only 17,250 carburetor rebuilds away from earning enough to buy that 36 flat nose! keep at it you'll get there.
Here is a picture of Ray's car from 1963. Doesn't look like it had the wire wheels then.
