Auto World 1931 Peerless Master 8 Sedan

Known by many different names throughout the years, the Peerless Company of Cleveland, Ohio, was truly a jack of all trades. The beginning of the 20th century brought them great success after their transition out of the bike business and into car production.

Some of the most advanced, luxurious vehicles available to Americans at the time were produced by Peerless. Shifting gears again during the Great Depression, the production plant released less than 1,500 cars in its final year before fully committing to a new identity as a beer brewery for the Canadian brand Carling. Luckily, the 1931 Peerless Master 8 rolled out to buyers a few years before the Peerless Company stopped producing automobiles entirely.

In this beautiful 1/18 scale Auto World reproduction, the hood swings up to show off engine details. In addition, the accurate interior can be admired due to the model's functional "suicide" doors.

There are fewer than 500 Peerless Motor cars still known to exist, with less than a dozen from 1931. With such scarcity, it's no wonder why Auto World chose to recreate this classic 1931 Peerless Master 8 for collectors to enjoy.
