Overview of 1949 Cadillac Series 62 Coupe For Sale by Owner

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.

Exterior and Interior

The 1949 Cadillac Series 62 Coupe DeVille features a sophisticated exterior that does all the right things for lovers of classic American cars. This was a true luxury coupe, and features a deep maroon paint job that matches this car’s personality to the letter. There’s plenty of chrome trim elements along the side, and you’ll also find white-wall tires for that period aesthetic. There’s also Cadillac’s signature egg-crate grille at the front. Inside, you'll find the car’s original interior. There's a central speedometer flanked by gauges that read the fuel level, engine temperature, battery state, and oil pressure. Badges on the interior panels showcase the traditional “Body by Fisher, Interior by Fleetwood” motif, and the center features a period radio unit.

Engine

Under the hood is the 331ci V8 engine that has been recently rebuilt. With just 1,000 miles reportedly on the engine build, it features a Carter WCD 2-barrel carburetor. Power is sent to the rear wheels via an automatic transmission, while stopping power is courtesy of four-wheel hydraulic drum brakes. Up front, the car rides on independent coil spring suspension, with semi-floating live axle suspension and leaf springs at the back. Most importantly, our car is entirely original except for the rebuilt engine. The owner made sure to use as close to original components as possible when rebuilding it.
