For Sale: 1966 Cadillac DeVille in Huntsville, Alabama

Vehicle Description

Finished in striking Lipstick Red with a crisp white convertible top, this extraordinary 1966 Cadillac DeVille Convertible Sedan is a rare piece of American coachbuilt automotive history. Cadillac did not offer a factory-produced four-door convertible in 1966. This remarkable automobile, however, was transformed into exactly that-a luxurious open-air Sedan DeVille professionally coachbuilt by Hess & Eisenhardt. The result is an automobile that combines the elegance and presence of a full-size Cadillac sedan with the unmistakable experience of top-down motoring. Beneath the expansive hood is Cadillac's legendary 429 cubic-inch V8, a 7.0-liter big-block equipped with a four-barrel carburetor and rated at 340 horsepower and 480 lb-ft of torque. It delivers the effortless power, smooth acceleration, and commanding road manners expected from a Cadillac of this era. The dramatic Lipstick Red exterior is beautifully contrasted by the white convertible top and luxurious black leather interior. Adding a unique modern touch, this Cadillac rides on a set of custom one-off 20-inch wheels, specially designed to mimic the appearance of the original Cadillac wheel covers, while maintaining the classic presence of whitewall tires. But this Cadillac is more than a beautiful and unusual automobile-it is an experience. Despite its age, rarity, and collector significance, it drives like new, delivering the smooth, quiet, effortless ride that helped establish Cadillac as the Standard of the World. The Hess & Eisenhardt name adds another level of significance to this already extraordinary automobile. Coachbuilt four-door convertibles from this era are rarely encountered, and the opportunity to own one with this level of presence, performance, and pedigree is even more unusual. Whether arriving at a prestigious automotive event, leading a parade, appearing at a concours, or simply cruising with family and friends under an open sky, this 1966 Cadillac commands attention everywhere it goes. This is not simply a classic Cadillac. It is a rare coachbuilt automobile representing a vision that Cadillac itself never offered to the public.
