RECONDITIONINGFULLY RECONDITIONED AND DRIVES GREAT! Having emerged
strongly from the Great Depression, General Motors leading Cadillac
Division produced one of its all-time finest model lines for 1941.
Basic styling was penned by GM stylist Art Ross, with major cues
including smooth, pontoon-style front fenders inspired by the Cord
810/812 and wide egg-crate grille. Bill Mitchell, who would become
Harley Earls handpicked successor in 1958, quietly influenced Earls
final approval decision and contributed the clean, fender-mounted
headlamp placement that he had long favored. One Cadillac engine
was available for 1941 the smooth and nearly-silent 346 CI V-8,
delivering 150 factory-rated horsepower. Sharing its chassis and
126-inch wheelbase with the rest of the Cadillac line except for
the formal Series 67 and Series 75 Fleetwood models, the
new-for-1941 Series 61 replaced the discontinued LaSalle.Finished
in Oceano Blue over flawless Grey wool upholstery, this sleek 1941
Cadillac Series 61 Sedanette is a gorgeous example throughout and
benefits from attentive maintenance and care. Cosmetic work
completed under the prior ownership includes re-chromed front and
rear bumpers, rebuilt front and rear seats, and the fitting of
correct Grey wool upholstery. Mechanical service includes a
carburetor rebuild, fuel-tank flush and installation of new rubber
fuel lines for efficient fuel delivery. New spark plugs, a new
water pump and accessory drive belts were installed. Underpinnings
include new brakes and repacked wheel bearings, plus rebuilding of
all four shock absorbers, and new front and rear suspension
bushings. As offered, it is a highly stylish classic Cadillac,
ideal for showing and driving enjoyment. See this wonderful 1941
