For Sale at Auction: 1940 Graham Hollywood in Leeds, Alabama for sale in Leeds, AL
Vehicle Description Here is one very cool looking car! By 1940 the Graham-Paige Company of Detroit was near bankruptcy.
As a final hope to increase sales, Graham purchased the body dies from the defunct Cord automobile company which were originally designed for the 810/812 series Cords by Gordon Buehrig.
The result was a new model called the Hollywood which was made in limited numbers in late 1940 and 1941.
This 1940 Hollywood four-door sedan was fully restored at a cost of nearly 60,000 dollars.
It is fitted with its original six cylinder engine and the original factory supercharger which has just been completely rebuilt.
The car is a great pleasure to drive.
It starts easily, shifts smoothly and has the power of a V8 with the supercharged straight 6.
