1918 CADILLAC TYPE 57 TORPEDO

[Langellier]

Hi !
Could somebody explain to me the way they put the fuel in the Cadillac Type 57 Torpedo.
This is very important for my blog.
Thx in advance.

I don't know the answer, but you might want to post this query on the EarlyV8Cadillac yahoo group.  https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/EarlyV8Cadillac/info

Thx a lot.
But "Early V8 Cadillac Group" is a very restricted group with only 48 members.
And they won't consider my poor question.

Madame Langellier,
EarlyV8Cadillac lives precisely for that sort of question. I believe the fuel goes in at the back of the car, above the bumper, beside the spare tire if one is mounted there. You will see a screw-off cap. On the other side of the car is a dial indicating fuel level. Please write me directly or join the forum if you wish for more details.
Kind regards, Michael Barnes

Liliane, you did what I would have suggested if I had no found that picture in one of my Cadillac books!
To Michael: if you have the "The complete history" from Maurice D. Hendry, have a look at page 98 (chapter six: the arrival of the V-8).
