The 1930 Cadillac Series 452 V-16 Imperial Sedan is not merely a classic car; it is a rolling masterpiece and an absolute pinnacle of automotive history. To secure this vehicle is to seize a true, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to become the custodian of a legendary historical monument—a chance that will likely never present itself again in your lifetime. If you are looking for the ultimate classic era car, the Cadillac V-16 stands unchallenged, and this particular example is as pure as they come.Currently EU-registration in the NetherlandsThe Legend of the Cadillac V-16Born at the dawn of the Great Depression—a time when American manufacturers were in a fierce race to create the most outrageous and exotic machines—Cadillac answered the world with a pioneering, narrow 45° overhead-valve V16 engine. Displacing 452 cubic inches (7. 4 liters) and delivering a whisper-quiet 185 horsepower, it was an engineering marvel styled like a jewelry box with hidden wiring and polished black porcelain finishes. The V-16 was so expensive and over-engineered to compete with the ultra-refined European elite like Mercedes-Benz and Isotta Fraschini, that Cadillac later estimated they lost money on every single unit sold. It has rightfully gone down in history as one of the greatest cars of all time, with many experts noting that “no other car from 1930 can match the Cadillac V16 except perhaps the Model J Duesenberg.”The Al Capone Era Mystique: "If Only Cars Could Talk"Adding to its immense historical mystique, this is the exact same model and Fleetwood body style famously driven by Al Capone and the Chicago mob during the height of the Prohibition era—with Engine No. 701617 serving as a notorious gangster-owned sibling. Oh, if only cars could talk; what incredible stories of wealth, power, and the lawless days of the 1930s this one could tell.Extreme Rarity & Pedigree (Number 9 of 50)Measuring an imposing 5. 65 meters in length, the Fleetwood formal coachwork remains exceptionally attractive, balancing a swept panel hood and cowl with a finely proportioned roofline to create a silhouette that is both formal yet fairly sporty. This specific vehicle, Engine No. 700163, is a breathtakingly pure time capsule. It is Number 9 of only 50 Imperial 4330 Sedans originally produced during 1930/ 1931. According to renowned automotive historian Christopher W. Cummings in his authoritative book Cadillac V-16 Lost and Found (page 99), it is one of just 4 examples known to exist in the world today.An Untouched, Well-Preserved Time CapsuleThis particular car has spent its life in California since new in 1930, remaining in the dedicated possession of its original owner well into the 1950s. Because of this protected climate and history, it survives in a remarkably well-preserved original condition:• The Interior: A true revelation, showing no tears or moth damage to the original wool broadcloth. The ornate woodwork is in wonderful condition, and the rugs all appear to be well-preserved and original.• Historical Details: The headliner is equally well-preserved and includes its original hat holders, as is the highly coveted original lamb’s wool over-rug.• The Dashboard: Features all its correct instrumentation and includes a very nice addition of a 1950s-era radio—clear proof of its long original service and well-looked-after existence.• The Exterior: The paint shows well and displays a gorgeous patina that is perfectly fitting for a car of such untouched integrity and honesty.Mechanical Condition & OriginalityThe quality of the car really shows what the V-16 legend is all about. Mechanically, the original double overhead-valve V-16 engine is beautifully maintained, starting easily, and in very good running condition. The transmission shifts exactly as it should. Being such an outstandingly preserved original car, all of its numbers and components are correct and matching to this specific chassis.Ready for It's new custodian
