  • Like a fine bottle of Merlot......Red red wine...

    Here is another project that I recently completed......


    Imagine if it was your vehicle back 1931 and you were cruisin the coast with the top down....

    A very very rare 1931 Cadillac V16 Roadster that I detailed for a private collector. What you have here is nothing but one of the finest vehicles in automobile history IMO....

    Here is a little video that I put together of the detailing work we did on this classic and rare vehicle....

      I watched your video on this. That is one awsome car. Don't see anything like that here in Alberta. Great job!

        That is a nice machine. V-16, no wonder the hood looks like it's 10 feet long!
        There's no reason to become alarmed, and we hope you'll enjoy the rest of your flight. By the way, is there anyone on board who knows how to fly a plane?

                  Gorgeous! I love muscle cars but the vehicles from the 30's, 40's and 50's were the best! Did you get to drive it at all?

                      Under wrap

                      Ths isn't your fathers Cadillac

                      V16 Very rare indeed

                      A bit neglected and dull

                      It's been awhile since I had some loving

                      Love the simplicity of these older interiors and the use of machine turned stainless



                      Retro style door locks

                      The detailing begins

                      My son stuffed into the cargo area, cleaning the interior


                      Results after a thorough polishing by Innovative Detailing

                      Some of the fine detail of the bright work

                      Some crazy engraving done by hand in the late 1920's, early 30's, talk about a steady hand

                      Could you ever imagine being behind the wheel of a V16 in 1931..u were the king of the road



                      Just glowing and alive after LSP

                      Brilliant reflections created once again by Innovative

                      Convenient vanity or storage drawers under the cab, what a concept and what a shine!

                      Detailed V16 badging on the rear

                      Old school cargo or luggage rack that folds up in the rear

                      Lets get ready to rumble!

                      Extremely detailed tire and spoke wheel combo with classic V16 emblem

                      Undercarriage and inner wheel well shows the detailed reflections

                      One last shot of the drivers side completed


                      Hope you all enjoyed the photos of this fabulous vehicle.....
