I am the 3rd owner (1st two owners were grandfather and grandson) and it is a low mileage rust free car. The car was purchased in Jacksonville and the restoration was done in Los Angeles supervised by a well-regarded classic car restorer - and long-time Cadillac and LaSalle member.
Here is some of the restoration that was performed:
1. Paint - stripped to bare metal and painted Alpine White - $9000
2. Transmission rebuilt by and carb resealed - $4500
3. Brake system replaced and alignment performed - $2500
4. Chrome, stainless, powder coating restoration - $17,000
5. Upholstery, top, windows and all carpet replaced - $16000
6. New convertible top and motor/cylinders replaced - $2500
7. Dash and instrument panels restored - $3300
8. All new glass throughout
There is lots more but this should give an indication of the detail of the restoration.
