Bingster Posted January 20, 2017 Report Posted January 20, 2017 I was watching the inauguration and as I saw the Bidens getting into a Cadillac limo, I couldn't help think that if I were an incoming president, I would have had a line-up of '46-'48 Chrysler or De Soto black limos in their place.

Bingster Posted January 21, 2017 Author Report Posted January 21, 2017 I wonder when they started using bullet proof glass for presidential cars? Quote
Dodgeb4ya Posted January 21, 2017 Report Posted January 21, 2017 Looks like 1939-42. FDR's 1939 Lincoln V12 was equipped with bullet proof glass. Was Al Capone's car. Quote
JBNeal Posted January 21, 2017 Report Posted January 21, 2017 I heard that starting with LBJ, the Secret Service began using bulletproof, non-convertible vehicles...and that they are not fans of parades... Quote
Bingster Posted January 21, 2017 Author Report Posted January 21, 2017 Nor would I be, even in a 1947 De Soto S-11! Quote
