The RM Auctions Hershey 2014 sale will be held October 9-10 in Hershey, Pennsylvania during the AACA Eastern Division Fall Meet. The two-day auction will feature a selection of more than 160 automobiles, two boats and select memorabilia. The offering is headlined by two North American collections, the Cars of John Moir, featuring the A-to-Z Collection, and the Jeffrey Day Collection.<\/p>\n

The Cars of John Moir comprise a series of 37 vehicles, all offered without reserve. The group is headlined by the A-to-Z Collection, representing each letter of the alphabet but also a century of automotive design from 1900 to 1999.<\/p>\n

From a 1912 Auto-Carrier Delivery Box Van (Est. $30,000 – $50,000) to a 1910 Zebra Type A Runabout (Est. $20,000 – $30,000), the collection encompasses such hard-to-find letters as Y (Yellow Cab), X (Xanthos), and Q (Queen). Each vehicle was chosen for its historical and technical novelty, and many are well-preserved originals. Another highlight of the group, a restored 1930 Cadillac V-16 Roadster, has been in the Moir family carriage house since 1933 (Est. $450,000 – $650,000).<\/p>\n

Beyond the alphabet collection, the Cars of John Moir include an AC Cars \u2018Master Class\u2019 representing landmark models from one of the world\u2019s oldest manufacturers, along with a selection of Moir family cars.<\/p>\n

The 2014 RM Hershey sale<\/a> will also present a selection of 50 vehicles from the Jeffrey Day Collection. Largely amassed over 15 years, the Day Collection is comprised of examples from the Ford Motor Company. From a 1930 Ford Model A Open Cab Pickup to a 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 \u2018Cobra Jet\u2019 and everything in between, each car is presented in running order and has been carefully maintained, with many recipients of authentic, ground-up restorations. Highlights include a concours-quality 1956 Ford Fairlane Crown Victoria Skyliner, one of the most highly optioned glass-top examples, including factory air-conditioning (Est. $80,000 – $110,000), along with a trio of Thunderbirds including a 1957 Ford Thunderbird \u2018E-Code\u2019, one of the first 50 E-Codes built and recipient of a nut-and-bolt restoration (Est. $100,000 – $125,000).<\/p>\n

The collection also includes several vehicles in long-term ownership with the Day family, including an almost entirely original 1959 Mercury Park Lane Convertible, purchased new by Mr. Day\u2019s father more than half a century ago, and an 1860 Abbott-Downing Stagecoach, one of three horse-drawn carriages in the collection, and owned by Mr. Day since 1971.<\/p>\n
