About the Cadillac 370C Model:
Cadillac introduced the V12 power plant in 1931 allowing buyers
some extra power and performance without the added cost of the
larger V16 engine. Production output for the 370A was tremendous as
buyers found both the 40 extra horsepower and luxury status of the
V12 engine, to be well worth the extra money! Cadillac sold 5,733
V12 units in 1931 setting the stage for progressive design changes
in 1932, now referred to as the 370B. The classic, carriage-like
bodies by coachbuilders would transition between 1932-1933 into a
more streamlined automobile with flared fenders and curved running
boards. Styling changes for the 1933 Model 370C would include a
V-shaped grill with painted radiator shell giving the appearance of
a longer hood, particularly because of a radiator cap was now
hidden underneath. Skirted fenders were adopted for a more modern
appearance, along with a slightly swept-back windshield, along
with, individually controlled door vent windows. Today, coach-built
vehicles of this era embody a classic style that car collectors
worldwide cherish as one of the most beautiful in automotive
history! In 1933, only 953 Cadillac V12 examples would be built,
with only four body styles to choose from making the particular
classic V12 370C model seen here one of the rarest models in the
marque's production during the 1930s.
About our Cadillac 370C For Sale:
This beautifully restored 1933 Cadillac V12 370C Town Sedan rides
on a 140" wheelbase providing smooth road comfort for all
passengers. According to the Cadillac build records, it was special
ordered and sold through General Motors Products Co in Oshawa,
Ontario, Canada and remains presented exactly as the build sheet
indicates to this day.
We are proud to offer a show-quality 1933 Cadillac V12 370C
finished in an all-Black exterior with matching Black fenders,
Ivory pinstripe, and Black 17" Kelsey Hayes wire-spoke wheels &
hubs. This stunning classic Cadillac shipped on May 25th, 1933 to
be united with its original owner, and today represents one the
finest in existence! It was painstakingly restored in true
nut-and-bolt fashion in approximately 2010 with nothing left
untouched. From a meticulous chassis restoration with all new
hardware, fuel system, brakes, and suspension components to a total
refurbishment and rebuild of the factory, number's matching
drivetrain, it shows as well underneath as it does from above!

This very special Cadillac example hails most recently from the
Gernatt collection. Under his care, it would garner high praise
being shown at the AACA Hershey National in 2012 to earn its Junior
National First Prize, and later that next year successfully gaining
Senior First Prize status. As a CCCA Full Classic, it would be
invited in March 2013 to the CCCA Spring Grand Classic in Mt. Dora,
FL achieving a score of 99.75/100 points taking a Premier 1st Place
in primary production class vehicles from 1933-1936. It is quite an
honor considering the competition in this category. It is now CCCA
Senior eligible for all future competitions. Cadillac Motor Company
only produced 953 V12 vehicles across all four body models in 1933,
making it one of the lowest production years in Cadillac history,
particularly as a result of the Great Depression. Of the 953
Cadillac V12 models produced, only 172 would become the Town Sedan.
It is indeed a special Cadillac example displaying a spectacular
physical and mechanical condition that is second to none. It is one
you can be proud to own, drive, show, and simply enjoy based on its
beauty!! It will come with the Cadillac build sheet, two full sets
of keys, hubcap removal tool, and lug wrench.
