1930s Ford Model B

Promotional film showing new 1932 Fords.

The Model B was a new Ford automobile produced in model year 1932. It was a much updated version of the Model A and was replaced by the 1935 Ford Model 48. Strictly speaking the Model B was a four-cylinder car with an "Improved Four-Cylinder Engine", but it was at this time that Ford began producing a very similar car with Ford's new Flathead V8 engine. The V8 car was marketed as a Model 18, though it is commonly called the Ford V-8 today, and was virtually indistinguishable from the Model B. Until this time, Ford had always produced only one basic car at a time.
There were two versions of the ’32 Ford – a four-cylinder and the V8 flathead. They came in a variety of body styles, the 2 door roadster, 2 door cabriolet, 4 door phaeton, two and four door sedans, four door 'Woodie" station wagon, two door Victoria, two door Convertible Sedan, Panel and Sedan Deliveries, 5-window coupe (two door windows, two quarter panel windows and the rear window), and the 3-window Deluxe Coupe that featured front opening doors, also known as Suicide Doors. The Deuce was called Model 18, the “1” standing for “first” and the “8” for V-8. The four-cylinder model was the less popular Model B, a refined version of the four-cylinder Model A, the most significant differences being a larger counter balanced crankshaft and pressurized camshaft and main bearings, an improved water pump, and a boss for a fuel pump, since the gas tank had been relocated from the cowl to the rear of the car and could no longer rely upon gravity feed.

1931 Cadillac

classic 1931 16-cylinder Cadillac
Pre-World War II Cadillacs were well-built, powerful, mass-produced luxury cars, aimed at an upper class market. In the 1930s, Cadillac added cars with V12 and V16 engines to their range, many of which were fitted with custom coach-built bodies; these engines were remarkable at the time for their ability to deliver a combination of high power, silky smoothness and quietness.

Automobile stylist Harley Earl, whom Cadillac had recruited in 1926 and who was to head the new Art and Color section starting in January 1928, designed for 1927 a new, smaller "companion" car to the Cadillac which he called the La Salle, after another French explorer, René Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle. That marque remained in production until 1940.
