-
1st step up..
-
2nd step...
-
American?
-
American?
Partially American...
-
American engine?
-
Yes, the engine is American
-
and off she goes!
-
I'm surprised to find that no other car of this make is to be found in the solved section, with a total production in the 4 digit range
-
Canadian make?
-
Not Canadian
-
Down under?
-
Yes, the engine is American
There is more American then only the engine...
It's not from down under
-
Completely American?
-
The make is American, but not the coachbuilder.
-
European coachbuilder?
-
Yes!
-
French?
-
Not French
-
Italian?
-
Not Italian
-
GB?
-
Not British
-
Belgium?
-
Getting closer..
-
Germany?
-
Just a close as Belgium..
-
Netherlands?
-
yes, the search can begin for real now ;)
-
By B.T. van Rijswijk & Zonen??
-
Not them.
-
Was it built in Den Haag?
-
No, not from Den Haag (The Hague)
-
Van Leersum?
-
No, not from them
-
Veth?
-
Or from Amsterdam S&vB (Rijtuig- en Zadelmagazijn Schutter & van Bakel)?
-
None of the above, but it is from Amsterdam!
-
Sieberg made Willys?
-
Neither of those
-
A.R.M built some early Cadillacs. Is this one of them?
-
It's not by A.R.M. and it's not a Cadillac. However, there is a Cadillac relation...
-
A lesser GM brand, then. Chevrolet?
-
No, the relation is not in the US, but in the Netherlands...
-
Built by Bronkhorst??
-
Not by them
-
No, the relation is not in the US, but in the Netherlands...
The engine (and more than just the engine) are American, but I'm wrong to guess American brands? :scratch:
-
It is an American make, but the coachbuild is Dutch. I haven't found any relation between the US make and Cadillac, but there is a relation between the coachbuilder and Cadillac
-
Thank you for that clarification :thumbsup:
-
Schutter & Van Bakel ?
-
Not them.
It's the only coachbuild that I've found from this company. There regular business was something else.
-
Or from Amsterdam S&vB (Rijtuig- en Zadelmagazijn Schutter & van Bakel)?
None of the above, but it is from Amsterdam!
Schutter & Van Bakel ?
Thats how we confirmed it was from Amsterdam ;)
Not them.
It's the only coachbuild that I've found from this company. There regular business was something else.
Motorcycle buissness?
-
no, they were in the car business, but not known for their coachbuilding .
-
Did they import cars from the US?
-
Yes!
-
So if it is Cadillac related...is it 1917 Glide CeHa by Cadillac House?
They were originally from Delft but moved to Amsterdam....good move if I say so myself ;D
-
I'll forgive you the typo :D
It is indeed the 1917 Glide "CeHa"
Very well done :thumbsup:
CeHa is how C-H is pronounced in Dutch. C-H of course stands for Cadillac House. I re-read my source and they were actually only a Cadillac dealer. They tried to become car importers, first with Glide and later with GN but they went bankrupt in 1920.
-
Thanks!
Fixed the typo though..I hate those :D
-
The car was called "Glide Six";

-
Nice find, but this particular model wasn't the only one with the "six" addition. I think it sometimes was called Glide and sometimes Glide-Six. in one advert they named this particular model "sporting-four" ;)
-
Then I would assume we need to call it a Glide-Six Sporting Four (CeHa)?
