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)?

Motorcycle buissness?

no, they were in the car business, but not known for their coachbuilding .

Amsterdam

Did they import cars from the US?

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"  ;)

DeAutogids

Then I would assume we need to call it a Glide-Six Sporting Four (CeHa)?
