29caddy Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Hi: I'm wondering if anyone could shed some light on my 1918 Cadillac Coupe. I have found that this model was produced in 1917--and discontinued in 1918. My 4 passenger coupe is a cast aluminum body, however on my sill plate--I have the Erdman &Guider build plate. Obviously Cadillac did have some of their closed car bodies built by custom body shops. I also read the Erdman & Guider were teaching the Fisher body brothers how to cast a closed car body. Can anyone shed more light on this topic? picture of my Cadillac below 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbenseignant@gmail.com Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Dear 29Caddy: I think the car looks terrific, and while I can't shed light on your questions, I can recommend you join the EarlyV8Cadillac forum, which I moderate through Youtube. Find the site, ask to join, and I will approve your membership right away. We have around 75 members now, with cars (or interest) in the year range from 1915 to around 1929. Cheers, M. Barnes, Vancouver, B.C., Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
