Pierce quality is evident everywhere you look on this fine machine. Gaze out on the dash board and you realize this is not your average car from the '20s Many decades ago, one Randall Shaffer of New Castle, Pennsylvania sold this Pierce to Barney Pollard of Detroit, Michigan. Pollard, referred to in period articles as the "World's Champion Old-Car Collector" began amassing a collection of 'old cars' in the 1930s—back when the car's he was buying from the teens and twenties were merely used and obsolete obscurities.

He amassed so many cars that he began hanging them from their front bumpers to save on space. By the mid-1970s, when he began auctioning off is collect, he had amassed a collection of more than 1000 vehicles and can be credited with preserving any number of rare vehicles that would no doubt been lost to the scrap heap had it not been for his voracious collecting appetite. This Pierce was restored some time ago and is finished in a lovely crimson and black color scheme with black leather.

Featuring twin jump seats in the rear and dual windscreens, it would be an ideal family tour car – both when it was new and today. As a CCCA Full Classic™, there are numerous events at which it would be a welcome addition. One would be hard pressed to find another Pierce Arrow 33 restored to such a fine state.

With their great performance and wonderful manners these Pierce Arrows are highly recommended examples of one of America's highest quality cars.
