By 1908, the Hendee Manufacturing Co. was building 3,000-plus motorcycles per year, with around 15,000 built since 1901. The Indian brand had established its name in racing and record-breaking since its very first competition in 1902, when company director and veteran bicycle racer George Hendee won the Boston-New York race on a machine of his own manufacture. Hendee repeated the victory in 1903, which partly reflects his experience as an 1880s bicycle champion, with a record of 302 wins from 309 starts on dangerous “high-wheelers.” He retired in 1886, and turned his attention to building the new “safety” bicycle design with equal-sized wheels front and rear. Combined with John Boyd Dunlop’s invention of the inflatable rubber tire in 1887, the safety bicycle was on the cusp of transforming the two-wheeled world. While the “boneshaker” bicycle was the natural testbed of the first motorcycles from 1867 onwards, the safety bicycle provided a far more stable platform to carry an engine. Hendee made his famous handshake with Oscar Hedstrom in 1900 to build motorized bicycles as pacers for pedal-racing; but, once they became reliable, it became apparent that pacers were pretty exciting too, and “demonstration” races were held between pacers as entertainment during amazingly popular bicycle races. Thus, even in its prototype stage, the Hedstrom/Hendee “motocycle” had competition in its blood. Bicycle heritage also showed itself in Indian’s adoption of all-chain drive on almost all models. By 1905, specialized Indian racing machines that were visibly different from the catalog offering appeared, including a new V-twin engine, which was first offered to the public in racing form by 1908. That first 60.32 CI engine retained the “automatic” inlet valve and mechanical exhaust of the singles, although this “monkey on a stick” twin racer was advertised as capable of 65 MPH “according to gear,” with a single Corbin coaster-brake on the rear wheel—racing was always for the brave. Other specifications included Hedstrom mica spark plugs, an English Brooks racing saddle (the B-100 or B-100-4 for “heavy riders”), and an all-up weight of 120 pounds. Colors available were Indian Royal Blue (the standard), with options of black or Indian Red. The magnificent twin-cylinder Indian racer could be yours for $360. The E.J. Cole “monkey on a stick” 1908 Indian Twin-Cylinder Racer was purchased from Dick Ollhoff, and retains its original parts, while remaining in unrestored condition.

A two-time winner of GS Nationals Concours Gold and awarded Best of Show at Hemmings Musclepalooza, this 1970 Buick GSX is documented as the 144th of only 678 Buick GSX models produced that year. Like other Buicks of the 1960s, the GS was overshadowed by its intermediate competitors at Chevrolet, Pontiac and Oldsmobile. But, Buick planted the seed for its greatest performance car in 1967, when the Division replaced the Nailhead V-8 it introduced in 1953 with a new, larger V-8 with plenty of room in its architecture for expansion. Displacing 430 CI in full-size Buicks and the Riviera, the new V-8 was sleeved down to 400 CI for its intermediates, but when GM dropped the restriction on displacement in its intermediates, Buick engineers unleashed the hounds, boring the 430 out to a full 455 CI and dropping it into the freshly restyled GS. The resulting ram-air-fed GS 455 boasted 350 HP at 4,600 RPM and a monstrous 510 lb-ft of torque, one of the highest ratings of any production engine. An optional Stage 1 455 raised output to 360 HP using a hotter cam, larger valves and a recalibrated carburetor. Buick then unveiled the GSX performance option, available only in Apollo White or Saturn Yellow and featuring front and rear spoilers, contrasting body-side and hood stripes, extra-wide Goodyear Polyglas GT tires on chromed Rallye wheels, hood tach and heavy-duty Rallye Ride Control suspension. One of just 81 produced with a 4-speed manual transmission, this rare 1970 GSX was the recipient of a comprehensive nut-and-bolt restoration to concours-winning condition. Its 455 CI ram-air V-8 was rebuilt to Stage 1 specifications, and it connects through the 4-speed to a 3.42:1 rear end. Finished in brilliant Saturn Yellow with a black interior, its great complement of optional extras includes power steering and front disc brakes, power windows, a sport steering wheel on a tilt column, center console and AM/FM radio.
