1938 Cadillac V16 - GM Heritage Center

suggests racing car speed, and conceals a luggage
compartment of extraordinary capacity.
Tail lamps have a high, thin chrome wind vane
which flows from the top surface of the rear fender
in front of the tail lamp and merges into a decorative
chrome moulding extending along the top center line.
INTERIOR LUXURY AND VISION
Entrance into the Cadillac Sixty Special is facilitated
by the low floor, the absence of running boards and
Extensive Outward Vision from within the New Sixty Special
the unusually wide doors. The front door is 3¾
inches wider and the rear door 8¾ inches wider than
last year's Series 60. These widths are greater than
ever provided in any car of comparable wheelbase.
Vision: Within the new Cadillac Sixty Special one
is aware of the extraordinary angles of outward vision.
One reason for this is greatly increased glass areas.
Windshield area has been increased 27%, front door
window 53%, rear door window 34%. More important,
however, than increased glass areas are the
location of these areas and the removal of vision
obstructions. Windshield and windows are higher relative
to the seat cushions and permit a view upward
