LeBaron Incorporated

LeBaron Incorporated (originally LeBaron, Carrossiers Inc.) was a design and coach building company from 1920 until 1953. American designers Raymond H. Dietrich and Thomas L. Hibbard had met while working for Brewster. Tiring of the corporate environment they started freelance work in their spare time and when William H. Brewster discovered this he fired Dietrich and Hibbard left.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= FEATURE ARTICLE from Hemmings Classic Car )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=LeBaron, Le Baron, LeBaron Carrossiers, LeBaron Inc., LeBaron-Detroit, Brideport Body Co. - CoachBuilt.com )
==Founding==
LeBaron was founded in Bridgeport, Connecticut in 1920 by Raymond H. Dietrich and Thomas L. Hibbard. The company originally was called LeBaron, Carrossiers Inc., and served as design consultants. Dietrich and Hibbard were unknown outside of Brewster, so a clever new name - LeBaron, Carrossiers - was arrived at by the two partners using a list of French words that had the ring of prestige and could be easily pronounced through a telephone.〔
Business increased enough in 1920 that Thomas Hibbard offered his friend, Ralph Roberts, who had just gotten his Bachelor of Science degree from Dartmouth, a job. Tom Hibbard met fellow designer, Howard A. "Dutch" Darrin in 1923. Hibbard and Darrin decided to go to Paris, initially to try to sell LeBaron designs but instead decided to set up their own company and founded Hibbard & Darrin. Hibbard resigned from LeBaron in 1923. Dietrich and Roberts continued operating LeBaron with a new illustrator, veteran Roland L. Stickney.〔
In 1924, LeBaron merged with the Blue Ribbon and Bridgeport Body companies and changed their name to LeBaron Inc., becoming body builders as well as designers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Chrysler LeBaron History )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=1985 Chrysler LeBaron (LeBaron Town & Country, LeBaron Mark Cross Convertible, T&C, LeBaron GTS, LS Sedan) - Conceptcarz.com )〕〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Briggs Mfg. Co., Briggs Bodied, Briggs Body Company, Walter O. Briggs, LeBaron, Briggs Detroit, John Tjaarda, Coachbult.com - )
LeBaron became one of the many prominent coachbuilders in the 1920s to provide bodies for luxury cars. Until the late 1930s, most of the great prestige automakers - Rolls-Royce, Hispano Suiza, Duesenberg, Packard - often supplied only a running chassis, which wealthy buyers would outfit with custom bodywork at substantial extra cost.
