This 1934 Cadillac Model 370-D Fleetwood V-12 7-Passenger Sedan is a stunning example of a pre-war CCCA Full Classic. With only 1,098 V-12s produced across 30 body styles between 1934 and 1935, this elegant machine is a rare and remarkable piece of American automotive history.
Amidst the hardships of the Great Depression, Cadillac stayed true to its luxury legacy. While many rivals vanished—like Peerless, Marmon, and eventually Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg—Cadillac responded with innovation. The Series 370 bridged the gap between its V8 and flagship V16 lines, offering refined luxury and performance at a time when few could afford it.
The 1934 models introduced dramatic styling changes that would influence the industry. The sharply raked grille, teardrop headlamps, and unique “bi-plane” bumpers with bullet spacers gave the car a modern, aerodynamic look. This example features covered dual side-mount spares, whitewall tires on painted wire wheels with Cadillac hubcaps, and deep black paint that complements its stately presence.
Under the hood is Cadillac’s 368 cubic inch V-12 engine, fed by dual single-barrel carburetors and producing 133 horsepower. It’s paired with a floor-shifted 3-speed manual transmission and vacuum-assisted mechanical brakes at all four corners—impressive tech for its time. Weighing nearly 6,000 pounds, the car cruises with grace and authority.
Inside, the light gray broadcloth upholstery covers both bench seats and rear jump seats. Matching door panels, a painted dash, and gray carpeting retain a classic look, while rear passengers enjoy vintage comforts like cigar lighters, ashtrays, a vent window, and a truly luxurious ride. The dash includes a 120 MPH speedometer, auxiliary gauges, a clock, AM radio, locking glovebox, and original controls.
This beautifully restored Cadillac is more than a car—it’s a statement of elegance and endurance. Whether you’re beginning your journey into classic car ownership or adding to an established Full Classic collection, this 1934 Cadillac V-12 Fleetwood is an exceptional and timeless choice.
