This 1951 Cadillac Series 62 is for sale in our Louisville KY
showroom. The series 62 was produced by Cadillac from 1940 to 1976,
renamed as the Calais in 64 but a series 62 all the same. The 48-53
models would mark the 3rd rendition of the 62. Now sharing the same
platform as the 61 the two cars were now virtually identical. The
62 would be the number one seller though with about 75% of all
Cadillacs sold. This Black beauty is a great example of what the
series 62 was all about. The bright work is the first thing that
you will notice when looking at the car. The black paint against
all the stainless and chrome pulls you in. The huge bumpers both
front and rear are in excellent condition with no signs of pitting
the finish is deep and mirror like. All of the glass is in the same
condition with no chips or scratches it is in great shape. Powering
all of this metal and chrome is a 331 CI OHV V8 which in 1951 was a
technological marvel. Producing 160 HP the 331 was in a class of
its own back then. Popular with racecar drivers of the day these
engines were known for their dependability and could be built to
put out massive amounts of power. The engine is clean and original
with even the oil bath still in place. Open the door and the
interior is in excellent condition with no signs of wear. The paint
on the dash is in great condition with it shining just as good as
the exterior. A set of after market gauges are set under the middle
of the dash just to make sure you can monitor everything as this
car was built to be driven. I mean come on it rides like a
Cadillac. Options on this 1951 Cadillac Series 62 include, Cloth
Interior, Hub Caps, and White wall Radial Tires. To view this 1951
