    1933 Cadillac 452C V16Despite the ongoing depression in 1933, Cadillac announced that it would build a series of 400 V16 cars. In actuality, only 125 were produced. Each V16 had a name plate mounted on the dash honoring the owner. This Convertible Victoria, bodied by Fleetwood, was one of only two produced at a cost of $7,500 each. It rides on a 146-inch wheelbase. The engine displaces 452 cubic-inches, with sixteen cylinders. Interior details include burled walnut panels and pigskin leather upholstery. The original owner of this spectacular automobile was Hill Blackett of Chicago, owner of an advertising agency.
