The LaSalle brand was introduced in 1927 as a companion marquee to GMs premier Cadillac. The concept for the LaSalle brand was conceived by legendary GM stylist Harley Earl, his designs for this sportier Cadillac sibling were inspired by the rakish lines of European roadsters by Hispano-Suiza. The result was a slightly smaller wheelbase bolstered by high beltlines and narrow body sections. The look was finished with ample Cadillac-style brightwork, scripted grille emblems and a likeness of Robert LaSalle, the historic French explorer, as its hood ornament. The LaSalle was an early success through 1930, but like so many other car companies at the time, LaSalle became a casualty of the great Depression-finally closing in 1940. Regardless of its quot;little brother quot; comparisons with Cadillac, LaSalles are greatly reveared as exceptional pre-war luxury cars and are considered as full classics by the CCCA. This handsome 328 LaSalle town car presents well-documented in photographs. A local newspaper article spotlighting the finished car is included.
