Buffalo, New York-based Pierce-Arrow offered a three-car lineup for 1930 that consisted of the entry-level Model C, mid-range Model B, and range-topping Model A. Approximately 6,800 cars were built across the three models for the model year. This example is said to have been repainted in its two-tone Tuscaloosa Tan and Thrush Dark Brown with orange pinstriping in 2003. Features include polished bumpers and brightwork, Trippe driving lamps, turn signals, headlights integrated into the fenders, an archer hood ornament, hood shutters, cowl vents, a tilting windshield, glass wind wings, running boards, a black cloth roof with landau bars, rear-hinged rear doors, a rear light cluster, and a fold-down luggage rack with an external trunk. Paint chips are noted by the seller.
The wire wheels were reportedly powder-coated black under the seller’s ownership. They wear Pierce-Arrow-branded hubcaps and 7.00–18 Firestone bias-ply tires. Matching spare wheels mounted in both front fenders host side mirrors. The Model B was offered with two wheelbases for 1930, with this example riding on the shorter 139″ wheelbase. Semi-elliptical leaf springs are fitted at each corner, and stopping power is provided by mechanical drum brakes.
The cabin is said to have been reupholstered in the 2000s, and it features front and rear bench seats, door panels, and a headliner trimmed in Nutmeg wool. Brown carpets line the floors, and additional equipment includes door storage pockets, front lap belts, a dash-mounted ashtray, a rear robe cord, and a rear fold-down armrest. Moth damage on the upholstery is noted by the seller.
The four-spoke steering wheel fronts a dash panel housing a North East barrel-type speedometer, a Waltham clock, and gauges for amperage, water temperature, oil pressure, and fuel level. A Stewart-Warner water temperature gauge is mounted to the left of the steering column. The five-digit odometer shows 74k miles, approximately 5k of which were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The 366ci straight-eight features a Stromberg UU-2 carburetor and was factory rated at 125 horsepower. The engine is said to have been rebuilt in 2003, and service performed under current ownership included resealing the oil pan and water jacket cover.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a three-speed manual transmission with synchromesh on second and third gears. Custom rear axle shafts were installed under the seller’s ownership along with replacement bearings, seals, and a differential cover. Drips are noted from the tailshaft.
