1920's Cadillac chassis photo or illustration needed

[1937hd45]

Does anyone have a photo or illustration of a mid 1920's Cadillac chassis that they could post here?

Bob , this is the best I can do at the moment. V63 , 1924-1925. The '25 Roadster was completed by Harry Nicks in Redlands , CA , and made its debut at the San Marino Classic last Summer.  I hope this helps. I will copy this to Early V8 Cadillac group (earlyV8cadillac-subscribe@yahoogroups.com). Scott Emmerson in the group from Australia has done a last nut and bolt on a V63. I am sure he would have detailed info for you if needed.  -  Carl

And this car and its owner were on the five-day Nickel Era Registry tour out of Murphys, CA in the Mother Lode Apr 23-27.  With almost 40 cars on the tour and a busy schedule, regrettably I didn't get a chance to introduce myself and compliment him on this superb restoration--but I did drool over the car in the hotel parking lot.

Hi George and Bob ! I thought you guys were at least healthy and wise , implying a reasonable geriatric bedtime ! I'm an unhealthy poor old fool , that's my excuse : )  Well here is Harry with his '26 Roadster. Take a long walk around his shop. That will tire you for a good nights sleep !   -  Carl

This is a 1926 with the wire wheels.

 

hope this helps

Thank you all for the quick posts. There was a mystery chassis found and photos posted on the HAMB, I'm going to post a link to this thread, it supports my belief that it is a Cadillac chassis. Best wishes, Bob

 

Here is the HAMB thread:  https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/hamb-id-test-of-the-week.1060708/

Here is a good pic of the platform springing on a'24 Cad. This was a parts car for the '25 Roadster Harry built for his customer. I am seeing discrepancies , but the frame in question looks to have been promiscuous. I am more curious about the exotic looking diff in the thing. What is that ? Certainly not '20s Cadillac.  - Carl

1922 - Type 61 Lubrication guide (chassis is a bit different)

 

Nice high resolution so you can see all the detail

 Thanks for starting this inquiry.  The photo of the 1926 Buick on the HAMB sight was the first car I was thinking about buying when we were "looking for a driver Buick" on the forum back in 2010-2011. When I responded to the craigslist ad out of Pittsburgh PA. the only 2 photos were of terrible low resolution and postage stamp size. A 1926 Buick Touring car..... $18,000. Not much more information. I did some quick research and found that Buick did not make a 2-Door touring and even though the photos were terrible I could tell that it was a cut down 2 door Standard coach. I always wanted to see what the car really looked like.
