"This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to own a piece of Hollywood and automotive history," said Kurt Aumann, CEO of Aumann Auctions. "Each vehicle not only represents an important era in automotive design but has also played a role in a major television production that celebrates American heritage."

Flatbed TT Truck - A favorite among filmmakers, this reliable workhorse features a new Brassworks radiator, a WASP gear-reduction starter, gear-driven alternator, and a 12V system conversion. It was most recently fitted with a new fuel tank for its role in Yellowstone's Prequel, 1923.
Ford Model T Coupe ("Doctor's Coupe") - A beautifully restored classic with a rich interior, this dependable driver was used on the 1923 set
1920s Model R Hupmobile - Originally part of a Michigan-based collection and museum, this four-cylinder Hupmobile was brought back to life with a rebuilt vacuum tank and appeared prominently in the first series of 1923.
International Truck - Known for its performance in film, this truck features a rebuilt fuel system, new wiring, and a refreshed cooling system. Another proven veteran of the Yellowstone production.
Durant Touring Car - A former Aumann Auctions feature, the Durant was acquired for 1923 and has been upgraded with new wiring and a rebuilt fuel system, making it a reliable period piece for both display and driving.
Hupmobile Sedan (Model R) - With its rare three-door body and distinctive "gangster-era" look, this car is a favorite in both car circles and the film industry.
