1953 Cadillac Series 62 Sport Coupe

The 1953 Cadillac Series 62 Sport Coupe was an American luxury car known for its distinctive styling and powerful V8 engine. It was part of the popular Series 62 line, which saw a redesign that year with features like redesigned grilles, "eyebrow" headlamp doors, and one piece rear windows. The Sport Coupe, along with the convertible, was a popular choice among buyers, and the Series 62 as a whole accounted for a large portion of Cadillac's production that year.

For auction, a 1953 Cadillac Series 62 sport coupe showing 67,263 miles, but the true miles are unknown. This car presents in barn find condition with missing parts, rust holes in the floor, and an interior that has been ravaged by rodents.

Exterior
This once stately ride was once glossy black but now suffers the effects of time with dull paint and a lot of surface rust, missing trim and tail light lenses, and some dents. On a positive note, the trim around the rear windows, including the C-pillar ornamentation, is in decent shape. It lacks a bumper and a driver's side door and the wheels are rust colored.

Interior
The stuffing of the torn seats has been pulled out and piled up, front and rear. The headliner is torn up and hanging down while the horizontal surfaces including door headers and package tray are worn and weathered. The speedometer, odometer, clock, knobs and panels might be salvageable from the dash as well as some surrounding hardware. As mentioned, the floors are rusted.

Drivetrain
It's dirty and parts are rusted but here's the 331ci V8 under the hood, originally rated at 210 horses, and topped by a 4-barrel carburetor. A 3-speed manual transmission is on board and 3.07 gears in the rear differential.

Undercarriage
A single exhaust carries a stock style muffler, suspension consists of coil springs up front and leaf springs in the back, and drum brakes are supplied to each of the four wheels.

Drive-Ability
There are no keys associated with this car.
