For Sale: 1939 Cadillac Series 60 in Mesa, Arizona

The 1939 Cadillac Series 60 Special was part of an upper-class distinction at Cadillac. So it already doesn't need much to look awesome, and that's why this one remains looking classic on the outside. But as you dig a little deeper you'll discover plenty of upgrades, like a supple leather A/C interior. And you'll love the look of shock when you leave some serious sports car in your wake thanks to the fuel-injected big block V8 under the hood.


General Motors had some of the best-looking bodies around in the late 1930s, and Cadillac was the cream of the crop. Its handsome wide flowing fenders and cool bullet-shaped headlights give it a flowing presence. And the grille design could be used as a definition of art deco. The high-gloss maroon paint does a great job of showcasing these details. And while this was built to be a driver, the sunshine lets the paint radiate and show off the very straight sheetmetal. Of course the best shine comes from the full brightwork package. And on a car like the 60 Special, it also highlights the best details. The rocker trim shows off the deleted running boards; the big chrome bumpers have an etched Cadillac script; and the upgraded 15-inch wire wheels mean proper elegance while allowing you to fit modern tires.


The attitude of vintage style mixed with the right upgrades continues inside. For example, the leather seats have the right appearance for a classic, and they have the supple feel of a proper update. And the door panels, carpeting, headliner, and finished trunk are all done in a harmonizing tan. These were built with back seat opulence in mind, and so your passengers will appreciate the limo-like legroom. There are well-integrated upgrades, like the air conditioning control that are tucked away in the glovebox. And the upgraded stereo speakers are ready for you to add a modern Bluetooth radio for the best in driving music. The Lecarra sports steering wheel and tilt column are even a subtle way of giving you a better driving experience. However when you twist the key, everything from the digital gauges to the extra hint of rumble of the motor give away the real upgraded heart of this Caddy.


You'll love lifting the hood at cars shows. After all, it looks like they couldn't stuff any more power in the engine bay. The 502 cubic-inch V8 is one of the biggest big blocks ever made, and it's even topped with RamJet fuel-injection! And you'll love how this one was properly installed with everything from those beautiful custom aluminum Cadillac valve covers, to the useful aluminum radiator with electric fan. The TH400 three-speed automatic transmission is a stout unit that can handle the big power, and this sends it to a Ford 9-inch rear. You also have rack & pinion power steering, cruise control, and four-wheel power disc brakes to be a fine all-around driver.
