Vehicle description
Classic Car Addict is proud to present this 1949 Crosley Midget Racer for sale in our Mesa, Arizona showroom. Crosley Motors Incorporated was a small, independent American manufacturer of economy cars or subcompact cars, bordering on microcars. At first called the Crosley Corporation and later Crosley Motors Incorporated, the Cincinnati, Ohio, firm was active from 1939 to 1952, interrupted by World War II production. The cockpit is trimmed in black vinyl upholstery over a single fixed seat with an integrated faired headrest. Equipment includes aluminum flooring and a shift lever positioned atop the exposed gearbox housing. The three-spoke steering wheel fronts a tachometer along with gauges for oil temperature, water temperature, amperage, and oil pressure. The odometer shows 8,490 miles. This midget racer is believed to have been constructed in the 1940s utilizing a Crosley frame, and it was acquired by the seller in 2020. The aluminum bodywork is finished in a beautiful Tiffany Blue with #8 numerals, Crosley Power, and Wheelers Garage decals. White-finished steel wheels are wrapped in NANCO 480-12 tires. The car is equipped with four-wheel drum brakes and rolls on a Crosley steel frame with coil over suspension. The Crosley 724cc inline-four is mated to a three-speed manual gearbox. The engine is outfitted with a single Tillotson carburetor, a Crosley Cobra valve cover, and one exhaust header feeding a side-exit exhaust system.
