DescriptionAmerican history at it's best! There are a lot of great stories from that time. https://simeonemuseum.org/collection/1928-stutz-bb-blackhawk-speedsters/ America's fastest production car in it's time (106mph sustained speed)! Known as the stock car speed champion of the 1920s. Pikes Peak racing and winning 1-2-3! The motor was a head of it's time called the Challenger. Every race at the time it entered- it won including AAA stock car champion 1927 Daytona and numerous others. The cars were bullet proof they were built to race! Someone privately (no manufacturer support) put a BB-speedster in race at 1928 LeMans, where she took second place finish (lead most of the race- lost 4th gear in the last hour) behind Bentley (that had five manufacturer cars in race). Car is acknowledged and praised as a design genius of all time, especially for a "yank".... This is aluminum speedster coachwork (Millspaugh and Irish). This particular auto- one of America's finest. Belonged to the grandson of Fred Moskovics, president of Stutz. In the spring of 2017, she was treated to a complete concourse restoration by the stut's specialists Old Iron Works in Texas.
