The Chrysler Series CD Deluxe Eight line was introduced in May of 1931. They had a V-type radiator that had a similar appearance to the radiator found on the L-29 front-wheel-drive Cord. Power was from an L-head 282.1 cubic-inch engine delivering 100 horsepower. They had a four-speed 'multi-range' transmission and hydraulic brakes. Body styles include roadsters, Royale and Convertible Coupes, and Sedan.
Chrysler was the flagship Company of Walter Chrysler's automotive empire and the last to be given a straight eight engine. When it did receive it's eight, it was larger and more powerful than those found in the DeSoto or Dodge. Four versions were available on Chrysler models, beginning with the 240 cubic-inch unit which it shared with Dodge. A new 261 cubic-inch and intermediate 282 cubic-inch were available, along with the large 385 CID unit.
The Series CD was initially known as the 'New Eight.' The First Series was given the 240 cubic-inch engine in July 1930. The CD was given a second series in January of 1931 with the 261 cubic-inch engine offering nearly 90 horsepower. Introduced in May, Chrysler introduced the CD Deluxe Eight with a 282 cubic-inch engine.
This particular CD Roadster has been given a restoration that was finished in a tan and brown exterior with a tan interior. It has a trunk and a rumble seat.By Daniel Vaughan | Dec 2014
