Vehicle Description
This 1949 Cadillac Series 61 Touring Sedan, with its original
warranty tag still intact, exudes power and prestige. The sleek
black exterior amplifies its substantial presence on the road.
Massive chrome bumpers bookend the body, while the bold front
grille announces its arrival. Distinctive tail fins, a Cadillac
signature, slice through the air with authority. Wide whitewall
tires, sized at 235/75R15, wrap around 15-inch wheels, crowned by
gleaming Cadillac hubcaps. Fender skirts accentuate the flowing
bodyline, creating a seamless profile. The split windshield, a nod
to pre-war designs, adds a unique visual element. The chrome side
trim runs the length of the vehicle, breaking up the expanse of
black paint. Dual chrome turndown exhaust tips peek out from the
rear, hinting at the V8's capabilities.
The interior of this Cadillac showcases vintage luxury at its
finest. Restored with meticulous attention to detail, the cabin
features a striking combination of gray cloth upholstery accented
with red details. Spacious front and rear bench seats offer ample
room for passengers to stretch out in comfort. The painted dash
houses the factory gauge cluster, its clean lines complemented by
an aftermarket water temperature gauge for enhanced engine
monitoring. Gray dual cord and gray plain broadcloth trim create an
atmosphere of refined sophistication. The column-mounted shifter
for the 4-speed Hydramatic automatic transmission adds a touch of
convenience to the driving experience.
At the core of this Cadillac sits the groundbreaking 331 cubic inch
V8 engine, a powerhouse that revolutionized the automotive industry
upon its debut. Paired with the 4-speed Hydramatic automatic
transmission, this drivetrain delivers smooth, effortless
acceleration. The engine bay presents impressively, showcasing the
V8 in all its glory. Modern upgrades include a 12-volt electrical
system with an alternator, enhancing reliability for today's
driving conditions. The dual exhaust system, featuring aftermarket
mufflers, likely produces a subtle yet authoritative tone. Power
steering ensures easy maneuverability, while drum brakes provide
stopping power suited to this classic cruiser's capabilities.
