1929 Cadillac Fleetwood Imperial Sedan

Description

This might look like a classic 1929 Cadillac Fleetwood Imperial Sedan. But when you step into duel zoned air-conditioned luxury, grab the five-speed manual transmission, and hear the ZZ4 crate V8 fire up, you soon realize this is a stealthy custom with far more modern comfort and quickness than you'd ever expect.

In the grand tradition of Fleetwood, this body is amazingly hand-crafted. It took the consignor/creator over three years to go from bare chassis to finished product. The result is a limousine style body that truly understands the relationship between upright lines and gentle curves, just like they did with the pre-war cars. This one carries masterful period-correct touches like the Trippe Safety Lights up front, custom steamer trunk hanging off the rear, parallel chrome bumpers, and the two-tone paint where the black fenders match the vinyl roof. But like any good coachbuilder, there are tons of great custom touches, too. The bullet-style headlights, '59 DeVille-style taillights, and modern American Racing Torq Thrust wheels give this a very individual level of flair. And you can recognize all of this so well today because there's only 220 miles on the total build. The doors shut so well, and have such nice solidness to them, you will be amazed at the amazing craftsmanship.

A custom build also means a full custom interior. The driver is surrounded by real wood just like a true coach-built vehicle should be, and you again understand the level of quality the moment the door gives an authoritative sound when it latches like a true 1920s machine. But from the first moment behind the wheel, you instantly understand this is a very modern machine. After all, Calvin Coolidge didn't have luxuries like power windows, power locks, keyless entry, and an AM/FM/CD/XM stereo with Bluetooth and backup camera. And you even get to keep cooler than Coolidge with the modern R134a air conditioning, and front a rear controls for the passengers comfort. In the rear, there are two facing rows that get the same handsome real wood trim and tan vinyl that is available up front. In fact, this stays true to its luxury limousine image by giving the back seat passengers luxuries like bright LED lighting and again, their own separate climate controls.

While this custom does a great job of blending new and vintage elements, when you look under the hood, it's all modern V8 power. You're looking at a 350 cubic-inch ZZ4 crate motor. It presents nicely with plenty of polished components and the bold air topper, but you'll need to dig a little deeper to see the best parts. The V8 has been enhance further with throttle body fuel injection, roller rockers, and a roller cam. This custom machine is producing around to 400 horsepower, and you get to take full advantage of it thanks to the control of the five-speed manual transmission. The Quiet Flow mufflers give you a nice V8 sound without losing the Cadillac level of prestige. On the road, this one rides better than any 1920s machine could ever hope, thanks to the S10 chassis and suspension. That also means you get more modern features such as the independent front suspension, power steering, and front disc brakes.

The full file that comes with this custom includes tons of build receipts, engine manual, and a full photo book so you can take others on the journey of creating this one-of-a-kind. It's the amazing custom that looks like a relic but has a highway level of comfort. So if you're intrigued, you need to hurry. There's only one of these up for grabs. Call now!!
