For much of the postwar era and the turbulent 1960s in particular, Cadillac remained the undisputed leader of the American luxury-car market. For 1965, Cadillac positioned itself for continued success with completely restyled bodies and replacement of the dated tailfins with smart, up-to-date blade-type rear fenders. Greater interior space was made possible with a new perimeter-frame chassis design, allowing the engine to be moved forward six inches and replacing the outdated X-member arrangement of the 1950s. The overall result was both an unqualified success and a design statement of pure, understated elegance, laid out with an architects precision, according to Motor Trend magazine editors. As regulatory demands increased, Cadillac engineers applied many new emissions and safety-oriented features. An all-new 472 cubic inch V-8 engine appeared in 1968 and maintained Cadillacs tradition of strong performance with its 375-horsepower rated output and massive torque. The De Ville Series was a key factor in Cadillacs continued success, with detail refinements including a power-operated front seat, illuminated door-panel reflectors, and richer appointments inside and out, including Tiffany-like identification scripts and more luxurious upholstery. The four-model De Ville line of the late 1960s included the 4-door/6-passenger formal Sedan and Hardtop Sedan, the 2-door Coupe De Ville, and Convertible. The formal Sedan was the lowest-production De Ville for 1968, with just 9,850 produced.Quite rare today, this 1968 Cadillac Sedan De Ville is especially so with just 7,900 miles from new.
