Undoubtedly one of the finest Fifties cars to ever come from an American manufacturer, the Cadillac Series 62 is a treat for the eyes, mind, and soul. This 1959 Cadillac Series 62 is actually a sixth-generation example of this nameplate and showcases the stunning Bill Mitchell design that made it a cult classic. We'll let the pictures do most of the talking, but let us tell you that this car has reportedly undergone a near-complete restoration and is almost factory fresh as a result. With just 27,300 miles reported, it's the perfect weekend cruiser for the discerning enthusiast with their family and luggage in tow.
Stretching all of 225 inches in length, this stunning 1959 Cadillac Series 62 has been repainted in blue and features new door panels, seals, stainless steel parts, and bumpers on its beautiful exterior. Truly an embodiment of America's Fifties obsession with the Jet Age, you can see the jet-inspired details such as the rear fins and jet exhaust-styled rear lamp clusters. Being a Cadillac, it's also got quad headlamps, prodigious amounts of chrome, near-ludicrous overhangs, and whitewall tires. As a proper four-door sedan, you've got ample space for the family as well. The amply spacious interior that we've just told you about is firmly apparent when you open a door and enter it. Decked in a lovely period blue theme, you've got front and rear bench seats in contrasting black, replete with fold-down armrests for the rear bench. We are told that these are actually new seat covers, as is the cover on the steering wheel. Furthermore, the carpets and vinyl are said to be new as well, as is the trunk liner inside the massive trunk. The interior trim pieces are new as well, and the air conditioner has received a service to help it blow nice cold air when required. A closer look reveals details such as the original instrument cluster, power windows, and power front seat adjustment; remember that this Caddy was the pinnacle luxury car of its time.
A monstrous 390ci (6.4L) overhead valve V8 lurks beneath the hood of this 1959 Cadillac Series 62, ready to deploy 325hp to the rear wheels via a four-speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission when you choose. We are told that the car has received new gaskets and fan belts as part of its restoration.
Cadillac has proclaimed itself as “the standard of the world,” and when cars like this 1949 Cadillac Series 62 Coupe DeVille come along, it’s not hard to see why. The elegantly designed Series 62 Coupe DeVille featured a restrained yet oh-so-sophisticated appearance that appealed to the well-heeled clientele that Cadillac was courting. In fact, the DeVille trim was the higher-end option package for the Series 62 Coupe. In post-war America, a Cadillac was the car you’d want to be seen in. It won Motortrend’s first-ever Car of The Year award back in 1949, with journalists praising it for its technological superiority over the competition. It featured a 331ci V8 engine that was lighter, had increased power, and displayed better fuel economy. Our featured car's engine was rebuilt less than 1,000 miles ago for many more miles of driving pleasure.
The inherent dignity, grace and beauty that became a hallmark of Cadillac styling in the past took a giant leap forward for 1959. There is, for example, all of the impressive stature, which only a motor car of adequate length and wheelbase can offer. There's the appearance of solid enduring beauty from every angle and an unmistakable mantle of quality which marked Cadillac at the time as the standard of the world. There were 13 models offered by Cadillac in ‘59 including a variety of sedans and coupes a couple of convertibles and even a limousine. These models, including the Series 62 are remembered for their iconic huge tailfins with dual bullet taillights. Up for sale here is a staggering example of a 1959 Cadillac Series 62 Coupe showing 47,500 original miles on its clock.
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.
Throughout the years Cadillac has been perceived as an automotive brand that's best enjoyed in the passenger seat, it's meant for cruising in style and class with any mention of performance coming second. Throw it back to the 2000s and that wasn't the case, Cadillac broke away from its silky smooth personality and gave the world the XLR, a machine built to take on performance powerhouses with blistering performance and style. Present today is this 2006 Cadillac XLR Roadster, this modern classic is the perfect balance of performance and Cadillac luxury and is reported to have only 96,539 miles on its clock.
Among those who enjoy driving about in good-looking cars, there is a small group who prefer the look of a mundane car with a classic historic flare. If that is your cup of tea, this 1993 Cadillac Allante is an excellent choice for you. While it blends well with day-to-day traffic, it boasts a stately personality. After all, it is a Cadillac. It was marketed as a two-seater luxury roadster, so it looks even classy with its top down. The Allante model saw a seven-year production run and the bodies were built in Italy by iconic coachbuilder Pininfarina. Our subject example only has 65,000 miles on its clock and is currently residing in Florida. Its owner claims that it comes with 3 keys and all the service is up to date.
The Cadillac De Ville was introduced in 1958, as a full-size luxury car from America’s top luxury automaker at the time. De Ville means “of the town” in French, meaning that Cadillac intended the De Ville to be the talk of the town. The first generation is the most popular, naturally, thanks to its iconic shape and rear fins. In 1961, the second generation was introduced, with fresh styling and more body styles. Buyers could now pick from a four-door hardtop with four or six windows, a 2-door hardtop, or a 2-door convertible. If you’ve been trying to get your hands on a De Ville, check out this 56,435-mile 1964 Cadillac De Ville Sedan that’s up for sale right now. The current owner reports it to have been restored, hence its pristine appearance.
Do you want a muscle car experience in a compact car body? That’s what Plymouth aimed to provide, with the Duster. Made between 1969 and 1976, the Duster was their two-door coupe in the compact car segment. However, Plymouth still endowed it with V8s of varying capacities, ensuring that buyers didn’t get the typically pedestrian performance that came with compact cars. If you’re interested in getting your hands on a Duster, check out this 1970 Plymouth Duster Restomod that’s for sale right now. The car has been completely restored and rocks some neat modern features.
Triumph was a well-known British sports car maker for decades. The cars were made by the Standard Motor Company of Coventry, and they offered enthusiastic buyers the typical British roadster experience of the wind in your hair and a pert little sports car to hustle around country roads. Naturally, Americans would get to experience these cars too, as evidenced by this 1962 Triumph TR3A that’s for sale right now. The car reportedly underwent a frame-off restoration in 2015, making it nice and fresh for its new owner to enjoy.
One of the most popular luxury midsize cars, the Mercedes-Benz W124 E-Class, was introduced in 1984. Since then, this sturdy German cruiser has gained a reputation for being the pinnacle of Mercedes-Benz’s bulletproof build quality and reliability. It was made as a sedan, coupe, convertible and estate. Up for sale today is a pleasant 1990 Mercedes-Benz 300CE two-door pillarless coupe with a scant 99,157 miles on the odometer. We say scant because it’s not difficult for these cars to quickly rack up mid or high six-figure mileages. So, if you want a practical modern classic that can possibly outlive you, here’s the golden ticket. The car comes with two keys, the original manual, and is reported to have all servicing done up to date.
