De Ville is French for “of the town”, and Cadillac envisioned their DeVille line-up to be the talk of towns when it drove through. Representing the luxury car maker’s full-size offering, the DeVille entered the scene in 1959, and sported the height of Sixties ostentatiousness. What we’ve got here is a second-generation 1962 Cadillac DeVille Park Avenue with 77,278 miles that the current owner reports to be original mileage.
A full-sized four-door sedan is the proposition that this 1962 Cadillac DeVille Park Avenue offers, all 215 inches of it, in a pale yellow exterior and contrasting white hardtop. Note the pillarless nature that adds a feeling of airiness, almost akin to a convertible, which is what Cadillac was going for. Of course, you can’t miss those stratospheric fins at the rear! Other highlights of the Sixties include the slats partially obscuring the rear wheels, whitewall tires, hubcaps with body-colored accents, and of course, a generous serving of chrome all round. The bodywork appears to be mostly in good condition, save for some small rust areas that can be corrected. The decent helping of chrome continues on to the black interior as well, adorning the dashboard, window trims, front seat backs, and door cards. You’ll find two bench seats here that can easily accommodate three people each. Power conveniences are ample too, as befits a luxury car. Power windows were trick enough, but throw power seats into the mix, air conditioning, and push-button radio, and you’ve got yourself a top-shelf top-dollar car in its heyday. The trunk upholstery appears in decent condition too, and plays host to the spare wheel and toolkit.
A large car requires a suitably potent engine to motivate it, and in the luxury car world, you can’t skimp in that area. That’s why Cadillac installed a 390ci V8 beneath the hood of this 1962 Cadillac DeVille Park Avenue. The engine was rated for 325hp when new, sent to the rear wheels via an automatic transmission.
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.
The Cadillac De Ville was introduced in 1958, as a full-size luxury car from America’s top luxury automaker at the time. De Ville means “of the town” in French, meaning that Cadillac intended the De Ville to be the talk of the town. The first generation is the most popular, naturally, thanks to its iconic shape and rear fins. In 1961, the second generation was introduced, with fresh styling and more body styles. Buyers could now pick from a four-door hardtop with four or six windows, a 2-door hardtop, or a 2-door convertible. If you’ve been trying to get your hands on a De Ville, check out this 56,435-mile 1964 Cadillac De Ville Sedan that’s up for sale right now. The current owner reports it to have been restored, hence its pristine appearance.
The De Ville name was first introduced as a standalone model range in 1959 and would remain a significant part of the Cadillac lineup up till 2005. The 4th generation came in 1971, and every subsequent year brought styling changes until the smaller 5th generation was released in 1977. 1974 brought changes to the front end (like a new grille and a new headlamp layout), and the introduction of a new option; the Air Cushion Restraint System (what is now known as airbags) for both front-seat occupants. It was, however, a costly option that didn’t prove popular among buyers and was discontinued after 1976. A 1971 Coupe De Ville reportedly came 3rd in the Cannonball Run, averaging 84.6mph and 8.9mpg.
The definitive daddy of full-size American luxury SUVs, the Cadillac Escalade has become a household name in the segment. Introduced in 1998, the Escalade is now in the fifth generation of production and is well-known for its spacious interior, formidable V8 engine choices, and luxurious amenities. It’s also got four-wheel drive if you choose, making it capable off-road if you need it to be. Today’s 2018 Cadillac Escalade comes from the fourth generation of the name, and has done a reported over 77,000 miles. Its V8 engine is reportedly a strong and reliable performer, plus the rest of the car appears in excellent shape. So, it’s a fantastic family hauler for those who don’t want to spend a price premium on a brand-new full-size luxury SUV. If you’re in search of a smart deal, then this car awaits your consideration in Millbrae, California.
Cadillac’s most popular model has got to be the Eldorado. Introduced in 1952, it enjoyed a fantastic fifty-year production run across twelve generations. The name Eldorado is inspired, as you may guess, by the Spanish term, and means ‘The Gilded One’. It’s also based on the Colombian lost city of Gold, namely El Dorado. With such nomenclature, you’d expect the Eldorado to be something, and those who have sampled one wholeheartedly agree that it could be the defining feature of Cadillac’s brand proposition. Today’s 1984 Cadillac Eldorado comes from Greensboro, North Carolina and has covered under 51,000 miles to date. It’s a fine tenth generation example, and a perfect embodiment of the Eighties as a result.
Do you want a four-door sedan that’s fast, powerful, amazingly potent-looking and above all, American? If so, may we humbly recommend this 2019 Cadillac CTS-V from Toledo with just 9,500 miles done so far? The CTS was Cadillac’s midsize luxury car offering between 2003 and 2019. It went head-to-head with the likes of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, BMW 5-Series and Audi A6. However, Cadillac also wanted to make a potent variant, which it denoted with a simple hyphen and a V at the end of the car’s name. Packing a powerful American V8 under the hood, the CTS-V represented a formidable alternative in the midsize performance luxury sedan market right up until its discontinuation in 2019. So, this particular car is one of the last of an era of excitement. It’s also got the V Series Preferred Equipment Group, Luxury Package and All-Weather Mat Protection Package. Snap it up right before someone else does!

You can’t go amiss by choosing a first-generation Ford Mustang as your starter classic car. Ford’s signature model created the whole pony car arena, and over sixty years later, remains the sole survivor of the segment. The first generation Mustang was offered between 1964 (called 1964½ models) and 1973. Along the way, it offered various engines and came in some high-performance variants too. Buyers could choose three body styles, and many went for the stylish fastback or the slick convertible. But, the third choice, the two-door hardtop offered sleek and arguably unappreciated style that really made owning one a personal choice of distinction. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Ford Mustang Hardtop for sale in Goodyear, Arizona. With its host of upgrades, this is a classic car that’s suitable for daily driving if desired. Snap it up soon!
