Throughout the 1950s, the Cadillac Series 62 was one of the most impressive and imposing full-size models available for sale. It combined classic American styling with the kind of luxury best known to be offered by Caddilacs of the era. The Series 62 was always known for its remarkable styling, but by 1959, that was taken to another level. The model features some truly impressive design features, from the massive tailfins to the distinct rooflines of the sedans. As always, the Series 62 was available in a variety of body styles, including hardtop coupes, various sedans, and the convertible. It’s the convertible that is the subject of this listing, with our 1959 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible featuring the car’s original 390ci V8 engine, a new paint job, and 154,000 miles.
The 1959 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible is a unique creation. The full essence of the design only lasted for one year, with the 1960 MY toning things down. The 1959 model was characterized by its sky-high tail fins, bullet-shaped rear lights, massive chrome grille, and pointed bumper extensions. The car has been entirely repainted with a resplendent coat of black lacquer. At the same time, it features lots of chrome, including prominent chrome bumpers front and rear and those instantly recognizable “Batmobile” lights. To provide some contrast to the black, you’ll find a newly installed white convertible top, along with large-profile whitewall tires. The white and black theme continues as you step inside, with the seats, door cards, and dashboard finished in a split color scheme. The owner reports the interior is original to the car. The front seat features a bench seat, and rear-seat passengers are treated to individual ashtrays. The driver is presented with a large twin-spoke steering wheel featuring the traditional chrome horn ring. Behind it, you’ll find a horizontal speedometer that reads up to 120 mph, with guages for the fuel level and engine temperature also included. Last but not least, the 1959 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible was known for its luxury, so you won’t be surprised to find power windows here either.
This 1959 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible features a 390ci (6.4-liter) V8 engine, which provided an impressive 325 hp when new. The owner reports that the engine is original to the car and has been meticulously serviced. You’ll also find the car’s original automatic transmission, which sends power to the rear wheels.

Cadillac is well-known for producing some of the most opulent and prominent full-size luxury cars of the ’50s and ’60s. These quintessentially American machines were instrumental in bringing about the term Land Yacht. The Series 62 nameplate was made between 1940 and 1962 across seven generations. Yes, in those days, model cycles were quite short, sometimes as short as two years. This 1959 Cadillac Series 62 Sedan comes from the seventh generation of the Series 62, which was made only for 1959 and 1960 before the de Ville took over. With 98,000 miles on the odometer, this car has been fully restored and sports a fresh coat of paint as well. Hence, it’s a great classic car and a symbol of American automobilia to own and drive.
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.
The inherent dignity, grace and beauty that became a hallmark of Cadillac styling in the past took a giant leap forward for 1959. There is, for example, all of the impressive stature, which only a motor car of adequate length and wheelbase can offer. There's the appearance of solid enduring beauty from every angle and an unmistakable mantle of quality which marked Cadillac at the time as the standard of the world. There were 13 models offered by Cadillac in ‘59 including a variety of sedans and coupes a couple of convertibles and even a limousine. These models, including the Series 62 are remembered for their iconic huge tailfins with dual bullet taillights. Up for sale here is a staggering example of a 1959 Cadillac Series 62 Coupe showing 47,500 original miles on its clock.
Late 50s Chevys and mid 60s Cadillacs have always been popular candidates for restomod projects. However, not all of them are tastefully done like this fully restored 1965 Cadillac de Ville convertible restomod. 1965 was the first model year for the 3rd generation De Ville. It retained the same wheelbase as its predecessor, but the frame was a new perimeter frame (rather than the old X frame). The horizontal headlamp arrangement that had been standard since the late 50s was dropped in favor of a vertical arrangement, which also resulted in a wider grille. Gone were the softer lines of the old car, replaced by a sharper, more boxy design. The tailfins that had started shrinking since 1960 were now lower and slanted slightly downwards rather than slightly upwards. The new straight lines in its design make this car just as good looking with the top down as it does with the top up.

Among those who enjoy driving about in good-looking cars, there is a small group who prefer the look of a mundane car with a classic historic flare. If that is your cup of tea, this 1993 Cadillac Allante is an excellent choice for you. While it blends well with day-to-day traffic, it boasts a stately personality. After all, it is a Cadillac. It was marketed as a two-seater luxury roadster, so it looks even classy with its top down. The Allante model saw a seven-year production run and the bodies were built in Italy by iconic coachbuilder Pininfarina. Our subject example only has 65,000 miles on its clock and is currently residing in Florida. Its owner claims that it comes with 3 keys and all the service is up to date.
This 1973 Chevrolet Camaro is a fully restored classic muscle car featuring a modified 350ci engine and a 3-speed automatic transmission. According to the current owner, the vehicle has undergone a complete restoration, including a new Dark Red Metallic paint job completed in 2020. This Camaro has reportedly been upgraded with a new shifter, headers, and an aftermarket dual exhaust system, enhancing its driving experience. The current owner also states that the vehicle retains its original 85,000-mile engine while benefiting from new carburetor components, a fresh oil change, and new tires. With a combination of vintage styling and mechanical upgrades, this Camaro represents an opportunity to own a classic American muscle car with refreshed features.
The Chevy 210 had a relatively short life, made between 1953 and 1957 before being superseded by the Biscayne. The 210 represented Chevy’s midrange offering, and was offered in various body styles. Buyers could select between sedans, hardtops, coupes, convertibles and wagons. Despite the short production run, Chevy actually made two generations of 210. This particular 1955 Chevrolet 210 2-Door Sedan is a second-generation two-door coupe that’s received a thorough makeover. Residing in Orlando, Florida, it’s the perfect classic car with some modern features for someone who isn’t quite ready to go full classic just yet.
The second-generation Chevy Corvette is renowned for many things. Debuting in 1963 with a neat split rear window, this design feature was axed for 1964 because it impeded rearward visibility. The second-gen ‘Vette also introduced features such as boat-tailed styling, pop-up headlamps, and the Stingray badge. That’s why cars such as this 1964 Chevrolet Corvette L84 Fuelie are highly sought after by collectors. This car is said to be an all numbers matching example with 35,375 miles on the clock, thus making it a great classic car to buy and keep for many years. Of course, you shouldn’t mothball it either; take it for a spin every now and then and experience the greatness of America’s most popular sports car.
