For more than three decades the Pierce-Arrow Motor Car Company of Buffalo, New York, was among the most respected and renowned automakers in America. Hard to believe the company responsible for producing the grandest of luxury cars began by building bird cages. From household products, the company turned to bicycles and then to automobiles shortly after the turn of the 20th century. Pierce-Arrow had the distinction of being the first automobiles to be used by the White House during the William Howard Taft administration in 1909. Unlike Packard, Pierce-Arrow refused to compromise on its luxury product before closing its doors in 1938.
Finished in lovely tones, this Pierce-Arrow is powered by an inline eight-cylinder paired with a three-speed manual transmission. Many features were assembled by Pierce-Arrow to make a most handsome car. Among these are dual sidemounts with covers and mirrors attached, trunk plus luggage rack, wire wheels, whitewall tires, free-wheeling handle, turn signals, clock , dashboard lights, radiator mascot, windshield wipers, tilt windshield, external windwings, skirted fenders, tri-light plate holder and eye-catching interior wood trim elements. The car is reported to have participated in the 1976 Glidden Tour, plus, as a CCCA Full Classic it is eligible for all Caravan Tours and CCCA club events.
