This 1940 Cadillac Series 60 Fleetwood marks an automotive
milestone as the final production year featuring the distinctive
torpedo-style headlights as well as the fender mounted spare tires.
The Oxblood Maroon paint shows off its massive presence on the
road, while those symmetrical dual spare tires flank the elongated
front fenders like metallic sentries. The chrome detailing flows
across the body, from the bold grille to the handcrafted bumpers,
all accented by the Cadillac hubcaps and wide whitewall 215/85R16
tires mounted on 16-inch wheels.
The grey leather interior stretches across the cabin like a
high-end hotel lobby. The bench seats accommodate passengers in
first-class comfort, while the wood grain dash serves as a control
center for the authentic 6-volt gauges. A dedicated battery system
hidden in the kick panel maintains the original instrumentation,
and the under-dash air conditioning adds modern comfort. The
carpeted trunk includes a convenient light built into the lid for
nighttime loading.
The 346 CI V8 dominates with raw American muscle, mated to a
3-speed manual transmission. The aluminum radiator and electric
cooling fans bring 21st-century temperature management to this
classic powerplant. Suspension duties fall to front coil springs
paired with rear leaf springs and a sway bar. Having been converted
to a 12V system, the factory gauges remain 6 volt and run off a
separate battery in the kick panel.
