    As rare as a Peerless is, I can't imagine that anyone has ever rodded one and unless it is so derelict and beyond redemption, I can't imagine even wanting to. If there's anything there at all, it's worth flipping to a restorer and using the gains to build a real traditional car.

    Thanks for putting the photo up, Harm's Way. That's a 1931 Model B Peerless, Full Classic. Nice picture. Peerless was into their sixteenth year of building eight-cylinder cars by then. As you know, they switched to manufacturing a product in 1934 that was actually illegal in 1931 and made millions.

    Can't you rod your essex? What model is it?
    He wants 4K for the Peerless? But will trade even for your essex? What's your essex worth?

    Anyway, if you get the peerless, rod it! You will have something different, and nice.

    I am not absolutely sure but I think I saw that Essex listed as being sold in the classified section.
