For a little insight into VanRanst's inventiveness, you might want to read US 2,098,265 filed 3/31/32 titled "Design for Front Wheel Drive". You can get this from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.


Which is a modified version of Harry Armenius Miller's patent for front wheel drive, the difference is that Harry's version had the transmission on the output side of the differential, whereas VanRanst's version did not. Harry's wasn't a very successful version, but VanRanst's version worked very well in the L29 Cord's.
