    1935 Cadillac Model 370-D Series 40Less than a year after launching the spectacular V16, Cadillac introduced the more modest V12 in September of 1930. Like its big brother, the V12 struggled for survival as the Great Depression deepened. The 368 cubic-inch engine produced 150 horsepower for 1935, and the cars were all equipped with independent front suspension and power brakes. All of the different models offered by Cadillac were available with a V8, a V12, or, on a longer 154-inch wheelbase, with a V16 engine. This example has a Fleetwood body, and rides on a 146-inch wheelbase. Only a few of this model are known to have survived, and the 'art deco' look is a favorite with collectors. The sheer size of this car, especially when one considers that it is essentially a two-passenger automobile, is staggering, even by the standards of the mid-thirties. Cadillac V12 production was halted in 1937.
