The Leake family hosts one of the nation’s premier auctions in Oklahoma with TULSA ‘99 which will feature 600 Collector Cars on June 4, 5 & 6. Enthusiasts from across America and around the world come to Tulsa for this important automotive auction. Owners this year have consigned a large number of very early cars including:
- 1903 Ford Model A, 2 cylinder Touring Car with Rear Entrance Tonneau. This car has been totally restored and was featured by Ford Motor Co. for their 75th Anniversary. This is a milestone car as this was Henry Ford’s first attempt at manufacturing a car in quantity.
- 1904 Northern 5 Passenger Touring with rear entrance Tonneau. This car has competed in the prestigious London to Brighton Run 5 times, including the 100th Anniversary Run in 1996. VCC dated.
- 1907 Model K 6 cylinder Ford Roadster Prototype. This remarkable, completely original, unrestored car, in good running condition, has original upholstery and is believed to be the first of 50 built. This is the only complete original fully optioned roadster known to exist, serial number K107.
Auction spokesman Richard Sevenoaks is most enthusiastic about the current collector car market. "This is a great time for buyers and sellers. The market is strong and interest in collector cars is at an all time high."
