1937 Cadillac Series 90 V16 Limousine (Modified V Windshield

Coachwork by Fleetwood
Engine Number: 5130306

This Cadillac V-16 Seven-Passenger Limousine by Fleetwood is one of 54 V-16s produced in the last year of production. It was given a restoration and fitted with custom-made 17-inch wire wheels with radial tires, modified suspension, and custom intakes bearing dual Holley two-barrel carburetors. The original side-mounted spares were also removed from the front fenders to provide easier access to the engine compartment, while the front seat was moved back slightly to provide more room for the driver.

This car has an older restoration, with a green leather interior, and 70,220 miles on the odometer. It is currently in the care of the William B. Ruger Jr. Collection.
