The images above and below are of 1931 Cadillac Convertible worth $300,000.00 and has a powerful V-16 engine. Cadillac's V16 engine burst upon the scene in 1930. The Cadillac V16 countered E.L. Cord's Duesenberg straight eight with the silky smoothness of sixteen cylinders. This V16 engine had the flexibility of a steam engine yet silent and smooth. This Cadillac was good enough to impress the most demanding American and European buyers.

This Cadillac Convertible V-16 all weather Phaeton has a body number 34 and was delivered new on March 19 of 1930. It is a correct matching number car with engine, chassis and body numbers correct as per its original construction. It is indicative of the quality and features which have made Cadillac V16s the standard of excellence in Classic Collector cars. Exterior paint is cream and beige with brown fenders. Interior is a Brown accent with Tan broadcloth upholstery and Tan cloth top. Note the dual sidemount spares with rear view mirrors, pilot-ray driving lights, top boot and a luggage trunk on a folding rack. New wide whitewall tires, a fresh, comprehensive service and detailing have readied it to be driven and toured with pride and distinction. It runs quietly and smoothly.

Automobiles like the Cartermobile, Chalmers, Chicago Motor Buggy and the Coleman. These cars were made in America, by Americans and many are still running.

$275,000.00 1937 Cord 812 Supercharged Phaeton

Today the 1937 Cord 810/812 still looks fresh, interesting, creative and elegant. Imagine how impressive it was over seventy years ago when it was new. There was, literally, nothing else on the market like it. Only the Chrysler Airflows came close to being as imaginative and aerodynamically effective as the Cord. Introduced in 1937 the 812 Cord supercharged version of its Lycoming-built V8 engine with 170 horsepower, 45 more than the unblown engine.

Only a very few Cord 810/812s were the attractive, sporting and practical Phaeton, coachwork that has become especially appreciated by today's collectors for its mix of style, top-down enjoyment and the practicality of room for four friends. Carefully redone in every detail to show car condition, this 1937 Cord 812 Phaeton is gorgeous. Finished in Dark Blue metallic with Blue leather upholstery and a Dark Blue cloth top, it is one of the most desirable cars of the classic era and is recognized by the Classic Car Club of America as a "Full Classic" making it eligible for all of that club's enjoyable and prestigious events. The car has also been certified by the Auburn Cord Duesenberg club as a Category 1 car.

This is a superb supercharged Cord 812 Phaeton that has been restored and maintained to the highest standards, and is ready for the show field, or the open road.
