Striking 1949 Cadillac Series 61 Club Coupe Sedanet
New to our Pleasanton showroom is this highly desirable 1949 Cadillac Series 61 Club Coupe 2 door Sedanet with gorgeous Burgundy exterior paint and an exceptional cloth interior. You'll find a factory-correct, fully restored and numbers matching 331 CID overhead-valve V-8 engine under the hood that's paired to a 350 Turbo Hydromatic automatic transmission, a 4-barrel Edelbrock carburetor, and a period-correct and rare factory option oil cooler, the original 6-volt battery system, new white-wall tires, a rare front seat warmer option, the original radio that's had it's inner workings modified to provide clear AM/FM reception, and far too much more to fully list.
NOTE: The current owner of this 1949 Cadillac Series 61 Club Coupe Sedanet also has the original transmission, intake manifold, original non-louvered hood, and Stromberg progressive carburetors that can be sold with this vehicle as well. We do not have these items on-site, but arrangements can be made for local pickup or shipment.
Exceedingly Rare Example that's Meticulously Restored
This 1949 Cadillac Series 61 Club Coupe Sedanet underwent a complete restoration starting in 2009 by notable shop, Automotive Restorers in Stratford, Connecticut. The next few years were spent bringing the body, chrome, and interior to immaculate, like-new condition throughout. There were also endless period correct competition modifications completed to the owner's exact specifications, and we have a binder full of receipts and invoices documenting the work performed. Recent work performed also includes repairs done to assure that there are no leaks to be found anywhere.
In terms of present condition, this 1949 Cadillac Series 61 Club Coupe Sedanet is outstanding in person with flawless body lines, very correct alignment, and tremendous exterior paint with only a few tiny imperfections to be found. The chrome and trim are also excellent down to the smallest detail inside and out. This is one of the most pristine examples you'll ever see in person. Likewise, the herringbone cloth interior is exceptional and so is the headliner, carpeting, and all interior amenities.
Additionally, this 1949 Cadillac Series 61 Club Coupe Sedanet drives beautifully with solid acceleration, great handling, and above average overall performance. This classic can cruise along the highway at 70+ MPH without issue and we do not believe that a similar example exists anywhere in the world today. It must be seen in person to truly appreciate, because this is one lucky collector's dream car.
Possibly the Most Pristine Example Available Worldwide
Overall, this 1949 Cadillac Series 61 Club Coupe Sedanet is the most pristine example we've ever seen, and a small fortune has been invested bringing it back ever so close to factory perfection or better. It's a rare combination of originality and modern performance that you simply don't see on the open market- this one simply won't last at the current asking price.
