When purchasing a car, one always looks at reviews and thoughts of automotive journalists. The popular automotive magazine Motor Trend indeed comes to mind when evaluating a vehicle. Chances are, if the car you are searching for is the Motor Trend’s Car Of The Year, it’s definitely something. The Cadillac Series 62 was their first-ever Car Of The Year. Present here in all its glory is a beautiful example of a 1949 Cadillac Series 62. Located in California and with a reported 42,000 miles on the clock, which is said to be the car's original mileage by the current owner. This Cadillac boasts originality and is one car that's undoubtedly set to rise in value in a few years and, better yet a classic that you can enjoy as well.
The Cadillac Series 62 had to represent the golden years to come after the war. Its long swooping Forties body lines would look appropriate way ahead of its time. This 1949 Cadillac Series 62 is finished off in a black exterior. The vehicle rides on a set of factory hubcaps which are wrapped around a set of whitewall tires. Pop the boot, and you will also find the 5th whitewall tire with the original hubcap in place. Like the car's exterior, the gray interior is in original condition, with all its components intact and looking shiny and new. The current owner reports that the driver's seat has been recently upholstered.
The post-WWII period was difficult, and manufacturers had a tough time perfecting a vehicle fit for civilians after focusing much of their energies on military machinery. Cadillac, however, had pushed the industry forward with their all-new overhead valve V8 engine. This 1949 Cadillac Series 62 sports that iconic 5.7 L V8 engine in all its glory. While robust for its time, the engine was renowned worldwide for being smooth and quiet with the folks over at Motor Trend baffled as to how quiet the engine was. Power is sent to the car's rear wheels through a 4-speed Hydramatic automatic gearbox.

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. Offered from Wichita, Kansas, this example has covered just 65,015 miles and presents as a rare opportunity to acquire a landmark model from Cadillac’s golden age.
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. Under the hood lies a balanced and blueprinted 427ci V8, while the body retains a smooth, understated presence thanks to carefully frenched and shaved elements.
One of the most famous classic Caddys, the Series 62 nameplate was applied to Cadillac’s full-size model between 1940 and 1964. Seven generations of Series 62 were produced, and the car quickly gained a cult following for its distinctive style and celebrity associations later in life. Today’s 1962 Cadillac Series 62 Restomod comes from the seventh or last generation of Series 62, and it’s a kind of restomod. While the car appears period-correct on the outside, the drivetrain has been massively updated, and there are some neat conveniences on the interior too. So, if you’re a fan of classic Sixties lines but want some modern driving dynamics, this Huffman-based car is basically speaking your name. Just call or DM us and let’s get started on the purchase process.
Cadillac may be best known for their massively opulent land yachts that really pushed the boundaries of full-size cars, but did you know that they had smaller options? In fact, they still do. Between 1976 and 2004, their midsize luxury car was the Seville. Named after a Spanish province renowned for art and architecture, today’s 1985 Cadillac Seville comes from the second generation of the nameplate. It’s got only 13,272 miles on its 4.1-liter throttle body injected V8, and features a four-speed automatic transmission. Interestingly, the car is front-wheel drive, as was typical back in the day. If you’d like to acquire this rather interesting piece of Eighties Americana, it’s currently up for grabs in Fountain Inn, South Carolina.
Do you want to be the proud owner of an American grand tourer from the Two Thousands, of which fewer than 15,500 were made? Yes, you can get yourself this 2004 Cadillac XLR from Lemont, Illinois and boast that it’s one of only 3,665 cars made in 2004. Rarer than some supercars, the Cadillac XLR was Caddy’s crack at the luxury grand tourer market. And you know what? It’s one of those cars that was massively underestimated when it was brand-new. Not enough people were brave enough to check it out, which was a mistake, because Cadillac had made something truly great. Now, XLRs are slowly gaining popularity, so you’d better snap up this sub-21,000 mile car before prices start going up – after all, Demand and Supply – that’s basic economics.
For fifty years, Cadillac’s Eldorado marked the flagship offering of this renowned American luxury automaker. The first Eldorado came out in 1952, and those early models were some of the most expensive cars in America at the time. Twelve generations of Eldorado were made, and today, we have a ninth-generation example up for grabs in Port St. Lucie, Florida. This 43,658-mile 1978 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Classic is the very embodiment of the term Land Yacht, after all. It’s large, imposing, and features the ultra-rare factory sunroof option. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to own an American classic.
