West Peterson Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 1929. Only the 1929s had the honeycomb grille. Unfortunately, too many have been retrofitted with the shutters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K8096 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Some were retrofitted in the 30's, but many have been by modern restorers too. I believe this is the car Elvis drove in a movie. It had 20" wheels on it at that time which are incorrect (it should have 19") and it loooks like it may still has the 20" on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are these Buffalo wheels with Duesenberg hubs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K8096 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I know. They had 19", and then some of the later JN's had 17". They are Buffalo wire wheels. Basically if it has 20" wheels on it they are off of a 1928 or 1929 Cadillac because they used the same 6" hub. Other cars like Stutz used a smaller 5" hub.
