Herbert Hoover – $88K, 1932 Cadillac 452-B V-16 Imperial Limousine

Herbert Hoover was President during the Great Depression in the US. He had a beautiful luxury car in his last year of office—the 1932 Cadillac 452-B V-16 Imperial limousine. There were only forty-nine of them built in total. The car was personally purchased by Hoover for himself and he left office with it in 1933. He eventually sold it to Gordon Hickman Garland, a friend on the California state assembly. He died eventually but his wife kept it. Bonhams sold it in 2007 for a little below $88K in mint condition. Hoover was the Secretary of Commerce during the ’20s  whose policies led to a greater business community.
