For 1934, General Motors’ “little Cadillac,” the LaSalle, was no longer based upon Cadillac engineering and design, but rather was its own all-new car, with a freshly redesigned modern chassis, independent front suspension, an Oldsmobile-sourced L-head straight eight engine, and newly developed hydraulic brakes, as well as beautiful streamlined styling with delicate chrome accents and “ventiports” along the hood.

A 1934 LaSalle convertible coupe was chosen to pace that year’s Indianapolis 500. About 650 of this style were built, and just 50 are known to have survived worldwide, including as part of such prominent collections as the Petersen Automotive Museum.
