I've been anticipating the Cadillac sedan. Are these the front grilles? If so, the "V16" badges (also the V12 and V8 badges) were suspended on a bar between the headlamps. Not laid flat on the grille bars or screen.

 

v16a

 

v16b

 

3/19/2023: Watching "The Public Enemy" tonight reminded me that the LaSalle also had a floating front badge:

 

1927c LaSalle Roradster

 

And yeah, we need these badges...

 

v16c

Those two tone DeSotos are gorgeous.

Oh boy, what beautiful DeSotos !They certainly look great and it's definitely going to be a highly regarded and successful release.

correctly mounting the badges on the radiator fronts of their V12- V16 Cadillacs 😒

I saw this DeSoto model at this weekend’s Chicago show, and as you said, it is gorgeous.
