How Limousines Are Made

Ever wondered how limousines are made? These elegant and classy cars for the rich

and famous arent something you can buy already finished from any car company which displays the prestigious brand out there. These magnificent cars usually start off as luxury sedans and vehicles which were later transformed to become the limousines. The process of converting a full-size luxury vehicle to become a limousine isnt a very simple one. There are many different meticulous processes involved. Lets find out how these beautiful and sleek luxury cars are being converted to limousines.

Limousines, as mentioned earlier, started as luxury sedans and vehicles. The most common types of cars that are selected for the limo conversion include the Lincoln Town Car, Lincoln Navigator, Cadillac Escalade, Cadillac Deville, Ford Excursion, Mercedes and Hummer to name a few. Other types of cars can also be used and they can be custom built to become gorgeous limousines, too.

To begin the conversion, the interiors of the vehicles are stripped of parts that are removable. Those that couldnt be taken out are meticulously covered with protective paper to avoid damaging the paint. Coverings are also placed over the dashboard, door glass, door panels and practically the whole base to keep them from getting ruined.

The cars are then placed on special custom frame and they are then cut in half. The coach builders may use the traditional cutting torch to splice the vehicle or they can employ lasers to get the vehicle separated in half. Once cut, the car is then stretched or separated apart in an aligned manner.

Steel rails are then welded to the bottom and sides of the separated halves of the vehicle to fuse them together. Any parts that are needed to get the vehicle running are then being extended. These include the brake system, exhaust, transmission, electrical wirings and air conditioning components.

As soon as the important components are in place, the vehicles are then fitted with special body panels, floors and roofs. They are then directed to the paint booth to receive high-quality spray of matching black or white paint. After which, interior detailing of the limousine can now begin. Depending on the limousine companys preference, the car can get fitted with the latest LCD TV screens, sound systems, bar and lighting.

The limousine is then put up for inspection to the original vehicle manufacturer to make sure that it is safe and sound to use. To guarantee safety, quality and performance, any coachbuilder for the Cadillac must have participated in the Cadillac Master Coachbuilder (CMC) program. The Lincoln Company likewise has its matching Qualified Vehicle Modifier (QVM) program.
