    My 1935 Auburn By Bill Winter The Auburn Automobile Company was established in 1900, although it was not incorporated until August, 1903. The company evolved from the Eckert Carriage Company of Auburn, Indiana, when the sons of the owner got interested in the horseless carriages that were emerging. With the help of the carriage company’s craftsman a prototype vehicle was running in 1900. The first production car was offered in 1903 for $1,400 and approximately 100 were sold. The company had its ups and downs, but under the leadership of E. L. Cord, sales reached over 20,000 in 1929. In 1930 sales fell to 11,357 due to the stock market crash and the fact that Auburn was in the final year of a three year body style. Auburn had its last good year in 1931 when the 8-98, designed by former Duesenberg body stylist Alan Leamy, was introduced. Sales were over 32,000. From there things went downhill; in 1932 only 11,000 cars were sold and sales fell to less than 5,000 in 1933. In an effort to improve lagging sales Auburns underwent a major restyling in 1934 and added a welded all-steel body, and a new six-cylinder Lycoming engine, Auburn’s first six since 1930. Sales improved over 1933 to 7,700, but the company continued to lose money. As a further attempt to boost sales, the 1934 was restyled by Gordon Buehrig, also from Duesenberg, to give the car a more racy appearance. He redesigned the grill, hood louvers, and front fenders and achieved what many consider the most stunning Auburn ever.
