1958 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible

History of the 1957-1958 Cadillac Series 62 . With pesky competitor Packard all but dead, Lincoln having only sold a third the number of Cadillacs in 1956, and with Imperial retailing less than a fifteenth the number of Cadillacs in 1956, GM’s premier luxury division was on a roll. With all-new 1957 cars on all-new X-braced frames, sales were sure to continue in a similar vein. All Series 62 four-doors were now pillarless hardtops. The cars were two inches lower than 1956, with a new reverse slanted wraparound windshield and a slightly longer 129.5-inch wheelbase.

Body styles included hardtop coupe, Coupe de Ville hardtop coupe, Eldorado Seville hardtop coupe, hardtop sedan, Sedan deVille hardtop sedan, Eldorado Seville hardtop sedan, convertible coupe and Eldorado Biarritz convertible coupe. Prices ranged from $4,677 to $7,286 before taxes, shipping and any options or accessories. The engine remained 365 cubic inches, but developed a full 300 hp.

1942 Buick Super Convertible

One of the most modern looking cars on the road at the time. Only 2489 were built before the factory ceased car production Feb 10,1942. The Roadmaster is even more beautiful as it is bigger but good luck ever seeing one as only 509 were built.

1930 Cadillac V16 Speedster Custom
The first generation of Cadillac V16 was introduced in 1930. Also known as the Sixteen, the V-16 was Cadillac's halo model during its production, and represented the highest levels of automotive luxury and refinement. The first generation V-16 was offered in a wide variety of body styles, with addtional coachbuilt body styles also on offer as well. The Sixteen went through two main designations during its first generation, Series 452, and for 1936, Series 90. Production of the first generation V-16 ended in 1937. So here's a Cadillac V16 Customized to be a speedster and some body treatment like Delahaye cars, and the gold touches from Rolls Royce Phantom III Labourdette.

Is that paint or some kind of plating?
