Big-Block Pierce-Arrow on eBay

By Jen Dunnaway

Here’s something you don’t see every day. These cars are usually restored to stock and parked in museums, not resto-rodded! With a Chevy 454 big-block under the hood, this gangster Pierce-Arrow would be a force to be reckoned with. And with the reserve set at $49,500, the seller assures that it’s "priced for a quick sale." Better take a number!

Yep, needs original-style wheels. Funny that it really does look like an Excalibur on modern rollers. I assume that it has a full modern drivetrain, but why? Pierces are great to drive.

Terrible wheel choice. Those cars originally rode on large diameter wheels – and since there are new large wheels being manufactured, I am certain a more appropriate wheel choice could be made. Those wheels are disproportionate – ouch!

Classy, but, he should have kept some better rims on it. That wheel and tire combo just doesn’t work for that old machine…

Good find!
