Name/Title
1932 Peerless De Luxe Master 8 Cabriolet
Description
Peerless was an American automobile manufacturer based in Cleveland, OH that began in 1902. They were known for producing high-quality, luxury vehicles. Peerless popularized automobile features like drum brakes and enclosed-body production cars. However, the Great Depression that began in 1929 reduced the sales of luxury vehicles, and Peerless was discontinued in 1931. The last car built by Peerless was in mid-1931, although it was released in 1932.
Built near the end of Peerless' time as an automotive manufacturer, this cabriolet features a straight eight engine, wire wheels, and mechanical brakes.
