I know where there is a 1910 Sears that is for sale. What I don't know is if it is worth the asking price. Approximately what would an older restoration be worth today? Thanks

Just saw a Sears Motor Buggy at a car show in Peoria AZ. Serial number 1085 as shown on the nameplate. Shown as a 1905. Is it in your Registry? May be built by AK for Sears? Amazing, running great. I like the web site, did not know about this historic vehicle, loved reading about it and sharing with fellow auto enthusiasts.

The story of Sear Motor Buggy Model K - #1810 John and Ada Haagen bought this Sears Motor Buggy #1810 new in late 1908. John bought the car from Sear Roebuck and Company and drove it from Seattle, where it came off the ship, to his home and farm located near Vancouver, Washington in the Prebstel area. This same trip today traveling on Interstate 5 covers about 175 miles. Upon returning home with his purchase, John, who farmed grains and raised turkeys, proudly drove it into the city of Vancouver. He made a couple of trips into town with the car and on about the 3rd such trip, after finishing his business, John partook of some libation and apparently, because of his intoxicated state, struggled to navigate and drive the little car home. The following day, he told his family that he preferred using the horse, which would find its way home, even if he fell asleep on its back. He parked the little Sears car in the barn, where it stayed for the following 55 years. Ownership transferred to John and Ada’s boy’s, Sal & Smith Glenn Haagan. During that time the axles were removed from the car and used to build a hay wagon for the farm. Then as the old barn deteriorated and the roof began to leak the old car was subjected to the northwest’s constant rain and moisture. The wooden parts of the car began to rot as well as the top and upholstery. It was about then that Ray Haagan, the grandson and third generation of the family, moved the remains of the car to the loft of a new, dry, and better barn which he had built. He also located the axles and whatever parts he could find for the car and kept them together so that someone, who took interest, might restore the old car some day. Many years passed. Ray visited my power equipment shop one day over 20 years ago and while he looked at some of my antique equipment and chainsaws, which were on display, he asked me if I was also into old cars. I responded, “I love old cars, but not so much hot rods, I mea
