Title: Bevo
Post by: 35-709 on January 04, 2025, 03:15:55 PM
A friend of a friend in Melbourne, FL (haven't met him in person) owns a car transport business and is also an auto transport broker.  His company has brought a few cars to me, most recently the Caribou from upstate NY.  He is a car nut (not surprisingly) and we communicate car stuff and jokes back and forth in emails.  On occasion, when he transports something interesting, especially Cadillac related, he sends me pictures.  Here is one of his latest --- you can read more about this car (one of several built BY Anheuser-Busch), with more pics., at the link below.

As you can read, Bevo is the name of the 0.5% beer that they "brewed" during prohibition.

"We moved this one this week.  1930 Cadillac Bevo Boat, St. Louis to Stuart, FL
It was made for Budweiser."

Seems familiar; perhaps we've seen it in a museum, private collection or book. I like it.

I'm pretty sure we saw this on display the Rt 66 Driving tour in front of one of the meuseums in St Louis.
