Auctioning entire collections is a trend and Artcurial has made a name for itself in the sale of large collections. So it is hardly surprising that the French car collection of American car enthusiast André Weber is being auctioned by the Paris-based auction house.

Between Rouen and Paris, more precisely in Château-sur-Epte, 80 vehicles of mostly American origin will go under the hammer on October 9, 2016.

Packard 904 dans le style Convertible Victoria par Rollston (1932) - offered as lot 45 at the Artcurial "On the Road" auction on October 9, 2016

The lots represent a total value of EUR 976,000 (CHF 1.05 million), including a motorcycle and a carriage. They all show André Weber's love of American cars and vehicles, which from his point of view probably showed American influences. The average estimate per lot was EUR 12,200 (CHF 13,176).

Cadillac Série 75 Limousine 7 places avec séparation (1938) - offered as lot 22 at the Artcurial "On the Road" auction on October 9, 2016

Naturally, brands such as Chevrolet (8 cars), Cadillac (8), Chrysler (3), Ford (13), Packard (2) or Studebaker (2) play a major role, but Weber was not averse to French manufacturers either, as evidenced by the numerous Renault (4), Peugeot (3) or Simca (4).

Disappeared brands

The Weber collection also includes a number of brands that disappeared many years ago, such as Delaga, Graham, Hotchkiss, Lasalle, Matford, Météor, Nash, Panhard and Talbot. But it's not just the brands that have long been forgotten, including some of the rare examples that André Weber was able to collect.

Graham 4 Door (1938) - offered as lot 40 at the Artcurial "On the Road" auction on October 9, 2016

Around a third of the cars on offer date from before the war, with the majority from the 1950s and 1960s. Three cars built after 1980 are more likely to be used cars than collector's items.

Two Citroën SM

The two Citroën SMs with carburetor engines from 1971 and 1972 don't really fit into Weber's collection.

Citroën SM Carburateurs (1972) - offered as lot 55 at the Artcurial "On the Road" auction on October 9, 2016

Both are in need of a little (or even more) love, which is why the estimated prices (8,000 to 12,000 euros, 12,000 to 18,000 euros) are set relatively low.

French classics

Whether Renault Frégate, Peugeot 402 Berline, Panhard Panoramique X73 Berline Parisienne, Peugeot 403 Berline or Simca Régence, they all belong to the French classics and are all represented by at least one model in the Weber collection.

Renault Frégate Amiral (1953) - offered as lot 14 at the Artcurial "On the Road" auction on October 9, 2016

The estimated prices are in the four-digit range, only the Peugeot 402 from 1937 is expected to fetch EUR 12,000 to 16,000.

The Ford Vedette

The Ford Vedette is certainly one of the most elegant creations built in France after the war. As many as seven of these cars were part of André Weber's collection, three of them convertibles, one a coupé and the others saloons.

Ford Vedette Cabriolet (1951) - offered as lot 07 at the Artcurial "On the Road" auction on October 9, 2016

They are all rarities, but the sportier variants are even rarer. Estimated prices range between EUR 6000 and 25,000 depending on the model and condition.

And a Beetle

Of course, the VW Beetle is not to be missed, even though it is hardly an American model.

Volkswagen Coccinelle 1200 (1972) - offered as lot 63 at the Artcurial "On the Road" auction on October 9, 2016

But it was also popular in the States, and so a 1972 example probably made its way into the collector's heart. Now it is said to be worth EUR 3000 to 6000.

All lots without reserve price

The estimated prices are of course only guidelines, in the day the 80 vehicles are announced without a minimum price, so one or two enthusiasts could also fulfill their dream for little money. However, it is certainly worth taking a closer look at the condition and originality.

Further information on the individual vehicles and extensive photo documentation can be found on the Artcurial website.
