  • Rider's vol. 10 from 1939 shows a B-90N as late model on 10-18 / 10-19 and B-90R as early model (drawing Sept. 1935) on 10-16 and 10-17. There are little differences but in many parts. The B-90 can be fitted with three different remote controls: for steering column; under edge of instrument panel or through instrument panel. For add. $ 1.50 there is a special General Motors dah control with escutcheon for Chevrolte, Pontiac and Oldsmobile.

    The B-90 has a list price of $ 55.00 and Lafayette asks for $ 27.50. See details for the models of this catalog or summaries.
