1929 DuPont

Two-Passenger Speedster

 

 

Our featured Metro Full Classic  is a 1929 DuPont  Two Passenger Speedster. It features a fold down windshield and exposed vertical center bar grill. This model is one of eleven built.

Interesting features of Dupont cars are eight cylinder engine mated to a four speed transmission, four wheel Lockheed hydraulic brakes, one peice cast aluminum grill/radiator shell assembly, cast aluminum dash, all aluminum body and fenders, and partial belly pans covering chassis frame and springs. This model speedster is one of two built with a rumble seat and includes Woodlite headlights. Dupont Cars had radiator ornaments ranging from plain caps to a cannon ornament (attributed no doubt to the family's history with gunpowder). This speedster's ornament  of two birds in flight was commissioned through Cartier in Paris. Only 483 DuPont cars were produced from 1920 through 1932.
