The FIRST Custom Built Secret Service Car: FDR’s 1938 Cadillac V16

What happens here

The interior of the driver's side is showcased, highlighting that the doors and general layout were relatively standard for Cadillac models of that era. However, the modifications and specialized additions were concentrated between the front and rear doors to enhance presidential security. A unique detail pointed out is a display inside the car with a framed copy of its original 'Certificate of Title of a Motor Vehicle', again confirming its 'WHITE HOUSE USE ONLY' status.

Goal: Examine the driver's area and additional historical documents.
