Cadillac's modern appearance continued to evolve during the early 1930s, distancing itself for the almost carriage-like appearance of the prior Cadillac designs. They became more streamlined and both Cadillac and their companion LaSalle received modern skirted fenders, more swept-back windshields, and vee'd radiators. New 'No-Draft' ventilation in the form of vent wing windows was introduced, and roll-up windows were now commonplace.
Caddilac sold a mere 6,655 cars among four different models for 1933, including 953 V-12s and 126 V-16s, the marque's lowest output of the decade, and a testament to the economic conditions of the era.
The V-12 models, introduced in 1931, were priced about $700 more than the comparable eight-cylinder models. The Twelve offered similar performance to the big Sixteen, with strong torque and a similar top speed of 80+ mph. The town sedan was offered in both V-8 and V-12 versions, both on the 140-inch wheelbase with bodies by Fisher.
This particular example has been given a restoration to its original configuration and it received its AACA First Junior in 2012 and its Senior award in 2013 along with its CCCA Premier First Place award in 2013.By Daniel Vaughan | Jun 2020
