Cord was one of the many talented and skilled automotive entrepreneurs whose aim was to establish an empire to rival Ford, GM & Chrysler. At one time Cord controlled the Checker & yellow cab companies, Duesenberg, Lycoming, Stinson Aircraft & American Airways amongst a portfolio of over 150 companies. A master salesman who worked his way through the automobile business, acquiring the Auburn Manufacturing Co in 1924, 5 years later he took Auburn to the next step introducing the FWD Auburn derived Cord automobile, named after himself. Known as the L29 it boasted both distinctive and sporting appearance with wrapped radiator louvers, exposed pipes on the 812, turned metal dash and concealed headlamps along with impressive performance with revolutionary handling for an American car at the time. Shortly after its launch the stock market was to crash and with it the market for another Cord project in the works, the Baby Duesenberg. Its distinctive styling provided the basis for the new FWD car from Cord, the 810 and its successor the 812. Gordon Buehrigs clean and unadorned coffin nosed, retractable headlight design would create a standard by which cars are still judged today. Powered by a Lycoming built V8 engine, it created an instant sensation at its November 1935 introduction at the New York Auto Show, so much so that Cord could not possibly meet the demand for the car.
