Seems like a straight up guy now. Comedians also, often have some traumatic things in their past. I don’t know that much about jays life but I grew up watching him and now as a 30 year old, and car addict, the knowledge and respect he has for these cars is really cool. And his demeanor, just seems like …positive. Also , V16 :-0 I usually don’t pay attention til 1940s cars but I’m liking and learning more about the 30s and seeing how evolutionary jumps came out of experiments like this caddy.

It’s not the cables, which even today aren’t shielded. It’s the spark plugs. Resistor spark plugs have been the norm for decades, to suppress this noise from audio.

@@Full_Otto_Bismarck Hi Joshua. A magneto doesn't replace an alternator (generator, in this case.) There could be other parts of the ignition system that cause electrical interference in modern electronics/radios, however if the spark plugs are not the restore type that's still the most likely source ... unless perhaps that metal cover acts as an effective RF shield (unlikely, since the hood and other metal sheets also don't block RF interference.)

@@thenexthobby Not an area i have much knowledge in, I just know that with older motorcycles when they are being filmed running they can create that popping distortion in the audio due to something in the electrical system, more than one person has said it was the magneto on said old bikes causing it. Im not an electrical engineer so I had no knowledge base to question it. I also had no idea spark plugs really changed that much over time and that the older ones could cause this interference. Interesting.

Wow! You're right, Jay. True automotive royalty. Thanks to you and Cameron for sharing her with us! The chief engineer who was responsible for the Cadillac V-16 was Ernest Seaholm. He worked for Lawrence Fisher, who was President of the (then) Cadillac Motor Car Company. Larry Fisher, one of the Fisher brothers of Fisher Body fame - was responsible for hiring gifted folks like Mr. Seaholm and Harley Earl as their stylist for the original LaSalle and later the entire GM corporation. Great history on a truly great automobile. Thanks again for what you do.

Hi, Rick, Ernest Seaholm was my mother's uncle. The son of Swedish immigrants from Springfield, Mass, he was brilliant man, a self-taught engineer, and later after retiring from GM, Superintendant of the Birmingham Schools, which named its high school for him. I had a Peterson's publication around 1972 that had an article on the V16 Cadillacs with a photo of Uncle Ernest. His younger brother Oscar, to whom I was quite close, was flipping through the magazine and was floored to see his older brother on the page. Ernest also sent all his nieces and nephews to college during the Depression, which is how my mother met my father. In a sense, I owe my very exisitence to the V16 Cadillacs!

There's a vast difference between vehicles owned by enthusiasts and vehicles owned by collectors/entrepreneurs. True enthusiasts keep, at least the bulk of, their collection road-worthy. Collectors/entrepreneurs are typically rarely more than less damaging purveyors of what many consider to be 'barn finds'. In other words, 'collecting dust' is still just 'collecting dust'. Many vehicles left in a barn were probably in just as good condition when first parked as those left to rot, unused, in a museum. Bravo to those of you that invest so much time, love and money into keeping these vehicles roadworthy.

Absolute beautiful piece of machinery, it really stands as the spirit of the combustion engine. Pretty sure they made the concept car Cadillac Sixteen as a homage for the older V16 Caddies, which is something I always appreciate... The way a car company respects its heritage by creating newer cars resembling the old classics. As someone at the age of 25, these cars definitely excite me more than modern cars nowadays. Everything from the shape, the engine, the technology used back then and the comfort truly what makes driving these car a new experience everytime.

I got to ride in a '48 Packard last year. It had the straight 8 engine and even being 73 years old it still got along quite well. The seats were like grandma's old sofas that just swallowed you up and you didn't want to get out of. Though it did handle like a bathtub which made it a bit uneasy to ride in with all the body roll. I would LOVE to find me one.

Too many people have forgotten that Cadillac engines were sought after for racing engines too. My grandfather worked all his life at Buick and his father was Chief Chassis Engineer for Buick and worked on the so called "Flint Buick"... Buick's first car. I used to have his diaries on all the stuff they did to design the car but it was lost in a fire. Cadillac today is still making performance cars. I have a 2014 CTS-V coupe and I love it. Drive it every Friday to work... I can't wait for Friday.

Amazing to see one of these running. When I was kid, I had a book called Cadillac: Standard of the World or something like that. It had LaSalle and Cadillac and the V16 just seemed unbelievable to me as a nipper. 16 cylinders??!! So great that the Nethercutt collection have this running and are happy for us to see it working. If I ever get to LA for a holiday I will ask if I can camp inside the Nethercutt - probably be there for a week at least...

If Cadillac still made a v12 or v16 today it'd probably be priced around at least $150k

What a glorious car of times well passed. These of course can’t be called ‘manufactured’. The chassis perhaps were, but body’s of ultimate luxury automobiles were purely fine craftsmanship. And a V16, phew. Car models sold having them in the last 100 years can perhaps be counted with 3 fingers to my best knowledge. Even Rolls Royce ultimately never have sold them, although they had one experimentally developed which could be popped into the Phantom Drophead, but only one time have they ever done so for Rowan Atkinson as Johnny English. What a magnificent automobile this. Thank you for showing. Cherio and Ciao.

@@wyskass861 agree and disagree. Generally speaking, once a technology is mostly perfected, it puts designers in a bit of a box where their creativity is greatly limited. There is a reason why so many crossovers look very similar, particularly at a glance. Efficiency of inside space, aerodynamics, and a million safety regulations greatly limit a designers ability to make something very unique and beautiful. Occasionally they overcome this, but generally they do not.
