A classic Cadillac is a surefire conversation starter. And not many models can challenge the kind of road presence and outright suave of a Cadillac Sedan de Ville. The Cadillac de Ville started life out as trim level, before morphing into its own model line from the “Series 62.” The car featured here is a four-door 1968 Cadillac Sedan de Ville, built with the same wheelbase as its predecessor, but debuting a new design language. The car featured here is a 1968 model produced two years into the third-generation de Ville’s production run. This immaculate example resides in Florida, with 55,000 miles on the clock.
The third-generation de Ville saw the design take a more straight-edged approach to the luxury sedan. The sedan features pillar-less doors, for an unobstructed glass area when viewed in profile. The upright headlight array, with the twin lamps stacked on top of each other, gives the front-end a more commanding and upright stance. And the gold that this example is finished in perfectly represents the period. The period-correct theme of the car is set off nicely with whitewall tires, while the roof is wrapped in vinyl — a sought-after feature when these cars were new. The interior is kept equally period, and features a brown color theme, with leather bench seats, both front, and rear. The passenger compartment featured\s some luxury modern conveniences for the time, including electric power windows, electric power seats, and air conditioning.
This 1968 Cadillac de Ville is powered by a 472ci V8 engine mated to an automatic transmission delivering power to the rear wheels and is shifted via a column-mounted shifter. This engine was rated at a healthy 375 horsepower and 525 lb-ft torque when the car left the factory.

The De Ville name was first introduced as a standalone model range in 1959 and would remain a significant part of the Cadillac lineup up till 2005. The 4th generation came in 1971, and every subsequent year brought styling changes until the smaller 5th generation was released in 1977. 1974 brought changes to the front end (like a new grille and a new headlamp layout), and the introduction of a new option; the Air Cushion Restraint System (what is now known as airbags) for both front-seat occupants. It was, however, a costly option that didn’t prove popular among buyers and was discontinued after 1976. A 1971 Coupe De Ville reportedly came 3rd in the Cannonball Run, averaging 84.6mph and 8.9mpg.
The Cadillac DeVille saw no less than eight generations and the name "DeVille" is derived from the French de la ville or de ville meaning "of the town". The second generation of the DeVille ended in 1964 and by that time the model was redesigned to be sleeker and more powerful. It was one of the best 1960s luxury automobiles and also something that is sure to turn heads up and down the street, at over 18 and a half feet long. That is to say, riding in a big Cadillac as the DeVille feels like floating on a cloud! This is your chance to experience this rare opportunity or add it to your prestigious classic car collection. This 1964 Cadillac DeVille is available for sale showing 133,000 miles on its clock.
The 1959 Cadillac is a defining icon of its era, renowned for its massive shark-like tailfins—the largest vertical tailfins ever on a production car. The space-race-fever-driven styling of the late 50s, inspired by designers like Chrysler’s Virgil Exner and GM’s Harley Earl, peaked in 1958-1960, with the 1959 Cadillacs standing out as the most iconic. Offered in 12 different trim levels and body styles, from the Sixty-Two series to the Fleetwoods and the Eldorados, the De Villes represented the mid-range trim, available as a coupe, a six-window sedan, and this four-window sedan. This particular Cadillac, known as the “flat top” due to its roof overhang and four electric side windows, weighs 5000 lbs (2.3 tons), measures 225 inches in length with a 130-inch wheelbase, and is 80.2 inches wide. With just over 78,000 original miles, it is completely original and in very good shape, having been lovingly maintained by its third owner for over 35 years. The car was driven directly from Detroit to California upon purchase and has always been garaged. It exemplifies the 1950s extravagance with better options and features than the Sixty-Twos, without the massive price tag of the Fleetwoods.

The Cadillac Eldorado is a well-known luxury car from renowned American automaker Cadillac. In fact, the brand itself has become the representation of American luxury vehicles. When it debuted in 1952, the Eldorado was a full-size luxury car, and continued for fifty years, across twelve generations. With its sizable dimensions, comfortable interior and the latest technological innovations of the time, it’s no surprise that the Eldorado was an aspirational item for many. So, you can imagine how the first owner of this ninth generation 1975 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible must have felt when they went to receive their brand-new Cadillac. Now, the car has done 87,000 miles, and comes to you with a few refurbishments to keep it running at its peak. So why not acquire this quintessential Seventies Land Yacht as your next (or first) classic car?
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.
