1903 Cadillac Model A Navigation
Cadillac produced 2,497 vehicles in their first year, including this Rear-Entrance Tonneau which was produced around May of 1903. It has been given a total restoration and finished in maroon with black accents and gold pinstriping with black button-tufted leather upholstery. The undercarriage and wheels are painted red, and the tires are white. There are Phare Solar headlamps, Dietz cowl lights, and a single taillight.

The car wears radiator badges for its 2008 AACA National Senior First Prize award (number W21662), as well as a subsequent 2019 Grand National award.

The 98.2 cubic-inch single-cylinder engine is paired with a two-speed transmission.
