If so, how was the ride? Probably rode just like a 1907 Chadwick. Your more likely to find out about the ride from a Cadillac guy circa 1914 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prefix IA- indicates Berlin, foreign cars were popular amongst well to do people in the late 20s there. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If my memory serves me isn’t that the book where he described a Duesenberg milling as a hacksaw? Hard working guys. That’s what a real Duesenberg looks like.
