1931 Cadillac Series 452-A Sixteen Roadster

The vehicle of choice for the country club playboy set of 1931, the Roadster was the lightest body offered on the Cadillac V-16 chassis and hence the most spirited in performance. This style could be ordered with an optional high-speed rear-end ratio of 3.47, which allowed a top speed of over 100 mph.
