If you want to know what luxury motoring in the Fifties was like, the Cadillac Series 62 is the perfect way to find out. Examples aren't exactly easy to find, which is why this 1953 Cadillac Series 62 Sedan is a hot topic item right now. With 58,000 miles on the clock, it's not run too much. A few things to note, the current owner says that the motor is from a 1953 Cadillac not original to car, so it is not a numbers-matching unit, albeit it's original under the hood. More of interest would be the fact that the car reportedly underwent restoration between 1988 and 1991.
At first glance, you might think it's a black car, but it's actually a dark shade of blue, Cobalt Blue Metallic, to be precise. The current owner reports that this is the factory color of the 1953 Cadillac Series 62 Sedan, and its interior is also in factory colors. You've got plenty of chrome, the characteristic Fifties fins at the rear, and all lighting looks in decent condition. The current owner says that the car could use a new set of tires. Inside the reportedly original light and dark blue cord material cabin, there's space for up to six adults across two bench seats, although five would be a more sensible number nowadays. Take a few moments to appreciate the Art Deco-styled dash, with ample chrome embellishments on it, as well as the door cards. The current owner tells us that the signal-seeking original radio was refurbished but needs some attention now. There's no air conditioning, but the heater is functional. That's all. You won't find myriad charging ports or touchscreen infotainment systems here. What you will find instead are ashtrays, as in-car smoking was in vogue back then.
This 1953 Cadillac Series 62 Sedan has a 331ci V8 under the hood that was factory rated for 190hp and drives the rear wheels through a four-speed Dynaflow transmission. The engine was bored and given hardened valve seats so it can run unleaded gas. There's power steering but no power brakes, so you'd better brush up on your leg exercises. The current owner also notes that the 12v battery has been replaced, as has the fuel pump. The transmission shows a small oil leak that can be fixed easily.

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.
Introduced in 1940, the Series 62 was initially meant to be a slight bump up from the Series 61, an entry-level offering by Cadillac. The Series 62 quickly gained the crowd's admiration, and its popularity opened the gates for Cadillac to introduce even more models, such as the Eldorado and Coupe de Ville. This specific fourth-generation Series 62 has reportedly been fully restored with 100% of its original parts and is currently up for sale.
Cadillac is considered one of the first automotive brands in the world. Founded in 1902 by the founder of Motor City – Detroit, Antoine de la Mothe, Cadillac, whose coat of arms is used as the brand's crest. From its inception, Cadillac's main focus has been on luxury builds, and this continued when General Motors took over the brand in 1909. One of Cadillac's memorable models is the Cadillac Fleetwood, which has its roots all the way back to 1916; while the Fleetwood is currently discontinued, it is still a much sought-after vehicle. The Fleetwood's status as a premier luxury vehicle made it aptly suitable for a myriad of uses. Take this 1988 Cadillac Fleetwood that has undergone a custom funeral car conversion custom built by The S & S Coach Company to give loved ones a last ride in luxury. The conversion has been done with excellent workmanship and is host to the original engine with 75,000 miles on the odometer.
The Cadillac Seville was Caddy's stab at the personal luxury car segment, and they took it to new levels altogether. Debuting for the 1976 model year, you could buy an Seville all the way up to 2004. This 1976 Cadillac Seville Bicentennial Edition is from the first generation and was made to celebrate America's 200th Birthday. Up for sale with 70,300 miles on the clock, it's a great symbol of Americana for you to purchase and drive, as well as a savvy investment.
Cadillac is considered the luxury arm of General Motors, and for good reason. This American brand is renowned for making land yachts to eat up the endless highways sprawling throughout the states. The Cadillac CTS-V sedan was born with the introduction of the high-performance V-Series sub-brand in 2004, which was an attempt to create a luxury sports sedan to compete with the BMW M5 and the C63 AMG. This makes the year 2019 its 15th anniversary, and Cadillac released the Pedestal Edition, which is limited to 300 units. This gorgeous example of the 2019 Cadillac CTS-V Pedestal Edition holds only 24,900 miles on the odometer and is available for sale in Florida.
By its third generation, the Chevrolet Corvette was already a well-known icon within the landscape of American motoring. The C3, introduced in 1968, retained its sleek and muscular appearance, adding a few more curves to the design, with a bit of European flair injected into its philosophy. It was still distantly Corvette. The C3 was also the first model to introduce a Targa top to its coupe models, a feature that would remain a popular element that reappeared over the ensuing generations. The C3 was also the first Corvette to serve as the pace car for the Indianapolis 500—the first in a long tradition of Corvette pace cars that would appear for the iconic race. Our featured car is a 1975 Chevrolet Corvette with the 350ci V8 engine mated to an automatic transmission, and features a few choice performance upgrades.
When the 1965 Chevrolet Impala Coupe was first introduced, their commercials referred to it as a completely new look that time can not wash away. Sure enough, even after a number of decades, the Chevrolet Impala remains a car that is accepted to be beautiful from every angle. Another interesting fact about the 1965 model year is that they improved the Jet Smooth Ride with a new chassis and suspension design and made it standard equipment in every model. To this day, its ability to make you feel like you are hovering above potholes is said to surpass the comfort of contemporary city cars. This 1965 Chevrolet Impala Coupe, with a recently installed engine, bears only 1,000 miles on the clock.
There are few cars that can embed themselves into popular culture the way the achingly beautiful third-generation Chevrolet Impala has. The model featured many design flourishes that epitomized the ’50s and ‘60s, including the car’s long and flowing lines, low roof, lashing of chrome, wrap-around windshield, and distinctive c-pillar design. The car we offer for sale here takes the traditional Impala recipe and adds so much more. Under the hood, you’ll find a modern GM LS V8 engine, which just so happens to have a supercharger strapped to it for good measure. This 1962 Chevrolet Impala SS restomod has undergone an extensive restoration and features a host of new parts and upgraded tech. It could be yours, with just 2,500 miles recorded since the restoration was completed.
