1912 Cadillac Model 30 Navigation
The Cadillac was named for the founder of Detroit. Perhaps more significantly its chief engineer and president of the company was Henry Leland, known in the automobile industry as 'The Master of Precision' for his exacting workmanship and pioneering work in the interchangeability of parts.
The big news at Cadillac in 1912 was the addition of the electric self-starter and electric lighting system, which was a significant improvement from the gasoline engine.
This Cadillac is built on a 116-inch wheelbase chassis and powered by a 286.3 cubic-inch four-cylinder motor that developed 40+ horsepower. Cylinders were cast-in-pairs, with a copper water jacket.
A complete restoration of the car was completed in 2013.
