Like all the very best luxury automobile manufacturers, Pierce-Arrow offered several distinct yet seemingly redundant body styles. In 1918, no less than fourteen body styles were offered on the 48 chassis, with additional custom bodies available to discerning customers who were not content with this selection. This very unique Pierce-Arrow is believed to be the only one extant with a Convertible Coupe body on the 48-horsepower chassis. It was the only open body with roll-up windows available in the Pierce-Arrow catalogue. This car also features optional, detached headlights in place of Pierce-Arrows trademark fender-molded headlights, which were adopted in 1914. The detached headlights are often referred to as 'New York headlights' because New York had outlawed fender-mounted headlights, which was especially ironic since Pierce-Arrows were built in Buffalo, New York.
