Cadillac Series 90 Convertible Classic Cars Part 1
Just seven 1939 Cadilac Series 90 convertible coupes with the V16 engine were built in 1939 a hard sell by then, compared to Cadillac's smooth V8.
Massive, mighty, and defiantly magnificent. Those are just a few of the words that might be used to describe one of the last Cadillac V16 convertibles. Riding a lengthy 141-inch wheelbase, this convertible coupe tipped the scales at close to 5000 pounds.
The convertible Model 9067 flaunted its enclosed, sidemounted spare tires and reaching-ahead hood ornament, the latter of which sat atop a burly barrel-shaped grille and still-separate headlamps. But the main attraction lay beneath the hood: a 431- cubic-inch V16 engine making 185 horsepower. Like Cadillac's companion V8, the V16 engine featured dual carburetors, as well as separate water pumps and distributors for each cylinder bank.
