1937 Cord 812
It was one of the the first American-designed and built front wheel drive cars with independent front suspension but it had an archaic tube rear axle with semi-elliptic rear springs. The very first was the the L-29 Cord, conceived in 1927 and introduced in 1929. The Cord 812 was also one of the first production cars to feature hidden/pop-up headlights. Additionally, the radical new styling of its nose completely replaced the traditional radiator grille, in favor of horizontal louvers, that curved all around the sides of the nose, earning the car's styling the nickname of "coffin nose".
