I've never seen a Viking in a car museum. I wonder if any still exist?

The Ruxton is a very interesting car. They sit low due to the drivetrain, and the illustration there isn't just for effect, they could be had with flamboyant paint schemes:
The ads just posted were from early to mid-October of 1929, and the stock market crash began toward the end of October. Viking and some of the other brands seemingly were only possible during the roaring twenties. As you say, these ads so far were all created before the crash began....
1929....

1930....
What I do not know is if these had the US Pontiac wheelbase, or were built on a Chevy chassis as well. But I suspect they used the US dimensions here judging from the picture.

An interesting article from which I found the V16 picture...

2014 Malibu 2LT, 2015 Cruze 2LT,
"The Cadillac V16 was basically two inline eights sharing a common crankshaft. The cylinder banks were placed at a very narrow 45 degree angle and each had its own independent fuel and exhaust system. The engine used overhead valves, a design not previously seen on a Cadillac, and hydraulic valve adjustment, an industry first, which contributed to the V16’s exceptionally smooth and near silent operation. With a 3 x 4 inch bore x stroke, displacement was 452 cubic inches, (thus the model designation 452), with an output conservatively rated at 165 horsepower, (later increased to 185 horsepower) and delivered through a three-speed transmission."

Never seen a high roof VW like that either, probably can't get up enough speed to be too dangerous.
(And it seems like because of a change the images can no longer be enlarged? In other words, if the text is small it's probably unreadable. Oh well.)

Right click and then expand the pic will enlarge everything. Great looking art work for 1931 model year!
Really like the looong Chrysler Eight art. Still the 1931 Chrysler Imperial Eight limousine was a big, long car.
