Thanks for the report back. Gland I didn’t drive 10hrs to see it.

I messaged the seller asking for more pictures including some of the interior and engine and he totally blew me off saying if I was interested come look at it in person… Red Flag! When I stated I live 5 hrs from the car and wasn’t going to drive 10 hrs total to blindly look at a car. He simply said “where else are you going to find a total rust free 1929 Cadillac for sale”… that response just proved I didn’t need this car.

There was an auction locally that had a brown tie with gold embroidery of "AACA" and the Duryea auto. I made a proxy bid but lots the auction, so I'm looking to buy one if anyone has one in their closet.

Was wondering the same thing. I have my hotel room but awaiting the registration and itinerary information.

Very nice looking Chrysler!

Received this book a few weekends ago and I love it. Great Job Matt!

Peter, Thank you very much for all that history and information! It was very helpful. Unsure why the manual is incorrect but I'm very relived to know I have the correct plate for the correct distributor.

I live in Cumberland, MD and would love to help you put on a meet! Cumberland, MD or Bedford, PA would be great locations with lots to do and see. We lost our large convention center so we can't host large AACA national events at this time, but smaller mark clubs can easily fit in our hotels. I've put on several tours myself of the area and helped with several other clubs visit the area. Only issue is that I'm a snowbird March and April and won't be back till mid-may. Otherwise I'd love to help. Kyle

I'm a little bias owning one, but I think the 1932 Dodge Brothers DK-8 is a wonderfully proportioned pre-war 4 Door Sedan. Especially for a depression production vehicle. The shape of the fenders make it look in motion even when parked. The extended hood vs the DL-6 is more balanced with the body and the hood length gives a deserved sense of power. Yes, many bespoke luxuary brands have great sedan bodies, but for a everyman production car I think the 1932 Dodge Brothers DK-8 is pretty great.

Well there is a interesting development on this issue. The 661-D distributor in my 1932 Dodge Brothers DK-8 has a plate that doesn't match the illustration in the manual with the orientation of the points flipped. Researching a number on the points in the current distributor set-up are for a 1938-40 Cadillac. So I assumed a previous owner had changed the plate in my 661-D distributor, until I found another 661-D distributor on e-bay that had the same plate that mine did. So now I'm thinking that the plate inside my distributor is correct, perhaps a mid-year production change, but a factory distributor set up. So I'm going to keep this set-up. Thanks for reaching out.

I am looking to buy a Delco-Remy Distributor Stationary Base Plate for a 1932 Dodge Brothers 8 cylinder. The Delco-Remy Distributor Model Number is 661-D and was only used in 1932-33 Dodge 8 cylinder cars. The Lower Breaker Plate Delco-Remy Number is 1843440. Thanks.

The car actually has lots of screen time in this music video!

I like this Rollson body (without the trunk). This car is listed on several other sites for sale at a price of $150,000, so the current auction price of 10k will have to jump quite a bit to hit the reserve. According to the Internet Movie Cars Database this car was in a music video in 1982 for Rainbow: Death Alley Driver. Interesting car!
