The original purpose of the Cadillac Series 40-62 was to complement the entry-level Series 61. The Series 62 saw seven generations. 1949 falls in the third generation and it was produced for only two years, between 1948 and 49. They were designed by renowned American automotive designer Harley Earl. Today, hot rod and street rod builders find these artworks on wheels to be enticing targets. This stunning 1949 Cadillac Custom is one such specimen that has done 190,000 miles so far. With a wealth of adventures and memories in its spirit, this fully restored beauty is in excellent condition and is available for sale in California.
The 1949 Cadillac 62 series is a gorgeous example of post-war American design. It has curvy bodylines with a bulbous front end and wide hips in the back finishing off with the iconic fin tail. The wide and ever present grille and bumper combination along with the various chrome trim further complement the body of this beauty. This example stands out from other Cadillacs as it has a chopped roof giving it a sleek and swooping roofline. The car sits low to the ground on stock style wheels wrapped in period-correct white wall tyres. The shaved door handles further give into the smooth styling the car leans into. The exterior look is completed by the black to purple colour shift paint job with clear coat protection giving this car a custom outlook. As you step inside through the lowered doorframe, you are greeted by a gorgeous black leather interior complimented by the red piping. The big stock steering wheel and overall design of the seats keep the interior period correct. The boot compartment has also been restored with leather trim on every panel.
Powering this 4,000-pound 1949 Cadillac Custom is a 305 cubic inch V8 engine. This engine from the factory makes about 170 horsepower but this example has a few improvements, which include an Edelbrock Performer Series Carburettor and manifold along with an MSD Ignition system. This example is equipped with an automatic transmission as well offering you seamless and smooth shifts making this Cadillac the perfect cruiser.

Cadillac’s Series 62 range of cars is one of the most iconic designs of the 1950s. This generation of Series 62 came in a variety of body styles, including hardtop, sedan, and convertible variants. The convertible is perhaps one of the most sought-after configurations today, and for good reason. It makes a statement wherever you go and was adored by the rich and famous of the era. While these cars proved popular with the elite, finding an original condition example with low mileage would be a tough ask today. However, our featured car is just that, reported as mostly original and featuring an owner-reported mileage of just 27,000.
