1932 DeVaux 6-75 Navigation
This 1932 De Vaux 80 Custom Convertible Coupe was produced by the De Vaux-Hall Motors Company of Grand Rapids, Michigan. In addition to their Grand Rapids assembly plant, they also produced some cars in Oakland, California.
Norman de Vaux and Colonel Elbert Hall had the notion that the country was ready for a new lower-priced economy car in 1931 - right at the brink of the Great Depression's very worst period. Debuted at the 1931 New York and Chicago Auto Shows, the new De Vaux featured a Hall-designed L-head straight-six engine rated for 70 horsepower, bolted into a 113-inch wheelbase chassis.
De Vaux produced 4,808 vehicles up to January 1932, when Continental Motors bought the assets and renamed the company the Continental-De Vaux Company. Slightly over 1,300 cars were built, but sadly after the 1934 Model year, Norman De Vaux repurchased the assets hoping to restart production but plans never materialized. His plant was then sold to General Motors in 1936.
This prime example of a 1932 De Vaux is one of just two convertibles currently known to exist. It is believed that there are fewer than ten 1932 DeVaux models total in existence. This car has been owned on and off by the same family for nearly four decades.
