Darmont

France, 1924 – 1939

R. Darmont, Courbevoie, Seine

The Darmont 3-wheeler was closely based on the contemporary Morgan, being almost indistinguishable in appearance. Two sv models were made, the air-cooled Darmont Etoile de France, and a water-cooled version. The most powerful was the ohv Darmont Spéciale which could be had in supercharged form when it was capable of nearly 100mph. The engines were French-built versions of the Blackburne. In 1936 Darmont introduced a light sporting 4-wheeler, the Darmont V-Junior, powered by a 1100cc V-twin engine. Like the 3-wheelers, it had Morgan-type independent front suspension.

The Marquette was an American Automobile built by The Buick Motor Car Co. in Flint, Michigan from 1929 to 1931. It was introduced as a new smaller Buick and designed to bridge the price gap between Buick and Oldsmobile.

In the late 1920s there was a trend toward companion cars. In 1925 Nash introduced the Ajax-Nash, in 1927 Overland began production of the Whippet and that same year REO introduced the Wolverine. Cadillac brought out the LaSalle and Studebaker produced the Erskine. So on June 1, 1929 Buick introduced the Marquette at Buick dealers.
