Vehicle Description
It's time to get your hands on an American icon for an unbeatable
price. This 1962 Cadillac Sedan De Ville is a classic cruiser
that's complete right down to its original color and the correct
390 V8. But there's also the right subtle upgrades like air
conditioning and a gorgeous trunk. So you know its cool factor is
the only thing that outweighs this long, low classic sedan.
Whether they see you coming or watch you going, there no mistaking
the big bold chrome grille, or the outstanding tailfins of a
classic Caddy. It looks like a rock star from any angle, and it's
so iconic that nobody will ever ask, "Hey, what's that?" This
example appears to be a largely original car that's had been
resprayed in its correct Sandalwood. That means it retains a nice
shine, and helps keep this hardtop sedan a paragon of good taste
and impeccable tailoring. In fact, the crisp sheetmetal made these
Cadillacs the style kings in the 60s. And when they look as good as
this one today, the reputation only grows. Of course, it's really
the brightwork that makes you love a car like this. So it's great
to see it complete on everything, including the big bold grille,
factory wheel covers, and the hallmark end caps that would continue
to define Cadillac styling for decades to come. And the way the
full-length trim starts behind the front fender, runs like an
unbroken line through the doors and rear skirts, and then it
highlights the lower tailfin - that's pure rolling sculpture.
The tan leather interior nicely complements the exterior color, and
this full presentation is thought to be all original. It's not hard
to believe this is true considering this Caddy has averaged only
around 1,100 miles annually - which leaves little time to wear out
anything. As a true Cadillac, this comes with plenty of features,
including a power front seat, power locks, and fold-down arm rests
in both rows for an individual level of comfort. Cadillac's classic
skinny dual spoke steering wheel gives you a terrific view of
everything from the ultra-wide speedometer, to the AM radio that's
still on display. And while all of this looks fantastically
original, the trunk has been upgraded with terrific glossy wood and
Cadillac graphics (you'll swear it's like a mini classic showroom
in there.) But we bet your favorite part will be the power windows.
They mean you don't even have to leave the driver's seat any time
you want to cruise around showing off this cool pillarless hardtop
profile. And because the air conditioning system is blowing nice
and cold, you can do this long into the summer season.
Cadillac's 390 cubic-inch V8 fills this engine bay properly with
big power. This is an era-correct motor, and the consignor states
it's original. In fact, the four-barrel carburetor and Hydramatic
transmission are both correct for the car and stated to be original
- exactly what you want on a low mileage and distinct classic. So
it's great to see this package so well presented with the blue
block and valve covers hiding under the tidy black belts, hoses,
and air grabber. And because you can tell this is a correctly
maintained classic, you'll also be happy to know the V8 fires up
nicely and runs like a smooth Caddy should. Plus, with power
steering, power brakes, and the unmistakable supple ride, this
classic still provides the proper luxury experience.
A tailfin classic Cadillac never goes out of style. So when it has
been so nicely presented with all the right cruising upgrades, you
know you have to act fast at this price. Call today!!!
