A lineage of Diesel Power from 1935 Auburn 851 to 2009 Rally Fighter

The relationship is undeniable. In 1935, when my Grandfather was the owner of the Cummins Diesel Engine Distributorship in the Northeastern US, he created the world's first Diesel powered passenger car, an Auburn 851 Coupe.

I had always heard stories of this great step forward, but until my Grandmother passed away and we were going through her papers, we did not know that there were pictures.

HERE IS THE PROOF:

My grandfather is in the reflection in the rear window glass, no doubt smiling on with pride.



















I hope he is smiling down with pride from Heaven where he is no doubt watching the development of the Rally Fighter with its Diesel Power!!
