Star Cars division of Durant Motors was created in 1922; a Ford Model T alternative. While history may have recorded Durant Motors as having ultimately failed, the cars are still among us, including this 1926 Star R Six Cylinder two doors coupe. I have the original tools and instruction manual; runs and drives great; very rare car!" As far As I know, there are only 3 Star R coupster registered.
