Detailed Description

1938 Cadillac V-16 Presidential Limousine

First in Luxury, First in Prestige
They certainly lost money on every one they built. In 1938, despite a new better performing engine and gorgeous body by Fleetwood, only 315 were produced. Yet it was the V-16 engine that pushed Packard aside, making Cadillac Americas #1 Luxury Car. The V-16 engine was almost extinct in 1938, victim of Cadillacs own improvements in their V-8 engine. By 1940 only a handful were ordered and the V-16 was discontinued.

Two Produced for President Roosevelt
Only two 1938 V-16 Presidential Limousines were ever produced, both for FDRs use as parade cars. Few Americans who were alive during this time will ever forget seeing live, if they were lucky, or in newsreels, pictures of the President smiling and waving from the backseat of these 38 Cadillacs, as he took a brief break from steering America through the Great Depression. This 1:24 scale precision die cast replica of the 1938 Cadillac V-16 Presidential Limousine has all the details of the original, from the flags on the front to an opening back seat compartment complete with telephone and rifle. With its factory baked-enamel black finish, “hood goddess ornament, working jump seats, every detail is exactly like it was when presented to the President 65 years ago.
