  1. "On July 31, 1913, members of the Senate Committee on Woman Suffrage greeted a throng of activists in Hyattsville, Maryland. Many of the assembled suffragists had driven thousands of miles to hand-deliver their petitions to their representatives in Congress. When the speeches concluded, suffragists and senators piled into awaiting automobiles and drove the six miles to Washington, D.C., in what journalists called the “Great Auto Parade.”

    Two cars in the front with distinctive radiators. Certainly not Packards. I think they may be two different makes.  Similarities to Garford, Elmore, or??

    Al, you have chose wisely.

     

    J12 Hispano Suiza, coachwork by Van Vooren. Tag is present on lower portion of fender.

    Very sinister car. V12, 24 spark plugs, dual magnetos, dual carbs, 4 exhaust headers and pipes. If I recall this was a 1938. 
     

    Good job!

    I presume that is Babette again - something of a stunner - 😉😀 - her hair style suggests an early 1950s photo, maybe.

    HI Gunsmoke

    Also( NarveN )has posted proof of (118 3/4 W/B) taken from Standard Catalog American Cars I have always relied on information from google as factual I now think differently      being from the uk I would be lost without the input from members on this site not to many pre war Chryslers in UK

    Thank You

    Yes, my 1982 copy of The Standard Catalog says 118 3/4 for the 72.
