1939 Cadillac Series 90 Navigation
This 1939 Cadillac began life with an eight-cylinder engine. During a restoration that commenced under John O. Bohmer in 1991, the Cadillac was upgraded to V-16 specification. The 431 cubic-inch L-head V-16 engine produces 185 horsepower at 3,600 RPM and is paired with a three-speed synchromesh manual transmission. There are four-wheel hydraulic drum brakes, a semi-floating rear axle, and an independent front suspension.
This Cadillac Convertible Coupe wears a Light Bronze finish with a brown leather interior. There is a pair of folding jump seats for occasional rear passengers, a banjo-style steering wheel, a dash-mounted clock, and a factory radio. The body-color steel wheels with bright rims and hubcaps are wrapped with period-style white sidewall tires.By Daniel Vaughan | Dec 2023
