Jim and Mike Ring, cofounders of the world renowned custom car builder Ringbrothers, unveiled a 1948 Cadillac fastback coupe called “Madam V” in the Flowmaster booth at the 2016 SEMA Show on November 1, 2016. “Madam V,” commissioned by car dealership mogul Wes Rydell, perfectly melds early and late model Cadillacs to create a one-of-a-kind Cadillac with the benefits of a modern car with the style and panache of a vintage Cadillac.
The project utilized four cars in total to create one master piece including two 1948 fastback coupes, a used 2015 Cadillac ATS-V and a brand new 2016 Cadillac ATS-V, all provided by Mr. Rydell. The Rings began by completely tearing the late model cars down to the uni-body and lengthening the 2016 chassis by 14 inches to accommodate the longer ’48 body. The 2016 ATS-V is a complicated modern vehicle with many interconnected systems that do not respond well to meddling, so Mike and Jim Ring made it a point to not disturb the ATS-V’s fuel systems and only lengthened the wiring with GM approved connectors to simplify the car’s transition and preserve the functionality of the modern amenities.
