On the Auction Block: 1934 Cadillac 355 D 2 Door Town Coupe.

Welcome to another chapter of "On the Auction Block" Where i showcase some of the real head turners at the 2011 Palm Beach County Auction in March. This car I'm showing here was probably the rarest car in the auction...

This Al Capone-ish looking car is a 34 Cadillac 355D Town Coupe. This car was definitely the oldest Cadillac up for auction that weekend.

The car featured the original 335D V8 engine and was fitted with most of the optional extras of the time such as a full chrome grille with red slats as well as a cover for the rear mounted spare.

This was probably the only time I would ever see this car. According to the listing this car was one of only seven made, which could mean that this car is the only one left in existence. Still didn't sell.
