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.

The 1941 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible Coupe stands as one of the most elegant pre-war American automobiles, combining refined styling with mechanical innovation that set Cadillac apart as General Motors’ luxury leader.

Nicknamed the “Jewell,” this incredible 1949 Cadillac Series 62 Sedanette is far more than just a cruiser. It’s a fully customized, professionally built showpiece, blending timeless American fastback styling with modern engineering and bespoke craftsmanship. Or, in other words, the perfect restomod. From its subtly aggressive 2-inch chopped roofline to the reportedly hand-finished Dupont Meadow Green paintwork, nearly every surface has been touched in this elegant transformation.

Of The Town. That’s what de Ville means, and Caddy intended for their model to become the talk of the town. Produced across eight generations from 1959 to 2005, today’s 1966 Cadillac Coupe de Ville is a nice fifth-generation example. It’s a definite American classic in all its green on green glory, and it packs a nicely grunty 429ci V8 up front to move it along the roads and keep pace even with today’s EVs and hybrids. Having reportedly covered just 80,000 miles, this car is now up for grabs in Huntington Beach, Florida.
This 2004 Cadillac XLR is one of just 15,460 cars that showed Americans what would result if Cadillac made a modern grand tourer. Sitting on a Corvette platform and featuring a power retractable hardtop, this Black Raven example is one of just 3,665 XLRs sold in 2004. It’s got 41,675 miles on the clock, three keys and the original owner’s manual.

If this car interests you, you’d better act quickly because as time goes by, the XLR will be recognized as a future classic, and then, everyone will want one.
For several decades, Americans who wanted a luxury car that was made in the country simply gravitated towards the Cadillac Eldorado. A look at this fine blue tenth generation 1985 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Coupe from Riverton reveals why. Just gaze at its sheer dimensions, its opulent chrome trimmings, its Astroroof and all that lavish leather and wood trim on the inside. Now, this super-low mileage car could be yours if you prefer. Yup, super low in 20,069-mile low. They don’t come much more pristine than this, you know.
This 2004 Chevrolet Corvette 1953 Commemorative Edition by AAT is a truly one-off creation that’s definitely worth consideration if you want an unusual car that’s built on one of America’s finest contemporary machines, the C5 Corvette. Currently up for grabs in Riverside, California, this special build by AAT has done over 75,000 miles to date.

Believe it or not, beneath the edgy lines of this futuristic car lies a fourth-generation Chevy Corvette. Called the 1991 Chevrolet Corvette Street Racer Mach 5, it was built by an outfit called Gotham Garage, as a show car. Furthermore, they are the ones who built a different Mach 5 for the iconic movie Speed Racer! Yes, it’s a truly one-off machine with spinning saws, a homing robot, and even Sprittle and Chim Chim in the trunk! It’s even signed by the builder, with video provenance. With a mere 966 miles on the clock, this Texas-based curio is definitely worthy of consideration. What’s more, the car is street legal. However, it comes with an event trailer and show gear in case you’re a bit reluctant to drive it from place to place.
One of the most interesting and true-to-original modern muscle cars has got to be the third-generation Dodge Challenger. When it debuted in 2008, the American public were thrilled because here was a car that looked like it came from the golden era of muscle cars – the Sixties! Yet, it also had modern elements to its look, an up-to-date passenger cabin, and a slew of modern, punchy engines, including, of course, V8s. The Challenger in this form would be made right up until 2023, assembled in Brampton and always made as a two-door notchback coupe. But hang on, convertibles do exist. Yes, we’ve got a 1 of 1 build by Droptop Customs, in the form of this 72-mile 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 Convertible. Indeed, this is one special car that’s definitely a collector’s piece but who’s to say you can’t enjoy it? If you absolutely must own this machine, contact us ASAP because it lives in Boca Raton, Florida. Oh, and we must casually mention that it’s got 1,025 horses under the hood.
