bob horgan Posted September 4, 2003 Posted September 4, 2003 Can somebody please tell me what this phrase means? It's from thier advertising I suspect."New Pierce-Arrow Enclosed Drive Models".Does is mean that it's simply a closed all weather car, or is thier something mechanical it's talking about.Thanks in Advance
edinmass Posted September 4, 2003 Posted September 4, 2003 The answer to your question is simple. Both Pierce Arrow and Lebaron used this term. From Pierce it was a car with a division window between the front and rear seats on a 7 passenger car. There was no removable top above the driver. It was the same body as the 7 passenger sedan. EDL'S are what Pierce collectors call them. 98% of the time they have leather front seats and cloth rear seats. It was meant to be chauffeur driven. The EDL was the most common body style Pierce built. Cadillac built the exact same body style and called it Imperial Limousine. LeBaron used the term EDL the same as Pierce but had several different trim options and disappearing dividers to help conceal a car doing "double duty" as a family sedan and a business Limo. <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
