Gateway Classic Cars of St. Louis is proud to offer a highly unique and strikingly beautiful 1930 Graham 46.

Graham-Paige was an American automobile manufacturer founded by the Graham brothers: Joseph, Robert and Ray Graham. These brothers started in manufacturing with a glass company, then graduated to manufacturing kits to turn Model Ts into trucks, and finally branched out to form an automobile manufacturer of their own in 1927. They purchased the Paige-Detroit Motor Company hence the name Graham-Paige. They initially offered several vehicles with either a 6- or 8-cylinder engine. This Graham 46 has the standard six engine which hums like a sewing machine. The history of this particular Graham is quite interesting being only a 3-owner car. That is right, only 3 owners over the past 88 years! The first owner was a Graham dealer in Carlinville, IL who parked the car in his dealer garage from 1941 until 1965. In 1965 it changed hands to the second owner, a friend of the third. The third and current steward of the vehicle purchased in 1987 with only 20,000 miles on the odometer.

He began restoring the car in the mid-1990s and has done a marvelous job. The body panels are original save for the running boards, and all panels have been sand blasted, zinc chromated, primed, and painted. The result is a gorgeous blue exterior which displays the clean lines of this Graham beautifully. Since being restored, the car has been lovingly cared for an obtained very few miles since. Currently the odometer reads 20,911.

This vehicle is a well-preserved piece of history.
