Seller's Notes

This is a remarkably rare and historically significant Yellow Cab Model A-2 Brougham Taxi. Its power comes from a 2.9-litre inline-four engine, driving the rear wheels via a three-speed manual transmission. First registered in 1923, this example is currently located in Australia. The car has been kept in a private museum for the last 30 years, and is believed to be one of very few surviving examples of its kind, representing a significant piece of American automotive history. The odometer is inoperative. This Yellow Cab Model A-2 Brougham Taxi is finished in a distinctive mustard yellow, over a brown interior. The car features its original taxi livery, rear passenger compartment, and an external luggage rack. Believed to be largely original, the car retains period-correct features. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: The seat upholstery is quite worn, though it presents well given the age of the vehicle. The Yellow Cab Company of Chicago Model A-2 Brougham Taxi represents a fascinating piece of early 20th-century automotive history, embodying iconic imagery of urban transport. This remarkably rare example, believed to be one of few survivors, has been preserved in a private museum for three decades, retaining distinctive period features. It offers a unique opportunity to acquire a tangible link to a bygone era of American city life.
