OVERVIEW: This 1947 Cadillac Series 62 sedan presents a unique and
captivating appeal. The original body has been carefully stripped
of its paint, allowing the bare metal to be showcased and proof
that there is no Bondo in this rare car. This approach highlights
the car's original body lines and offers a distinct and raw
aesthetic that sets it apart from conventional restorations. The
overall body condition is nice, showcasing the car's well-preserved
originality. The advantage to this is you get a unique styling that
you aren't going to see everywhere. PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW:
Rather than conventional paint, this Cadillac features a clear coat
applied over the bare metal. This treatment not only preserves the
original body's charm but also protects it from the elements. The
absence of traditional paint reveals the car's history and patina,
adding to its vintage appeal. Black is believed to be the original
shade, as seen in areas such as the door jambs. INTERIOR CONDITION
OVERVIEW: The interior of this Series 62 sedan appears to have been
redone in white. The exact details of the preservation are not
known, but from visual inspection, the interior showcases a
tasteful and well-executed renovation. The upholstery, door panels,
and other interior elements have been refreshed, creating an
inviting and comfortable space for both driver and passengers.
MECHANICAL OVERVIEW: Equipped with a 3-speed manual transmission
and powered by a correct Cadillac 346 cubic inch V8 engine, this
Cadillac Series 62 offers a vintage driving experience. This
