With 1972 Cad 500 cc Power Plant, Automatic, Power-steering etc.
1941 Cadillac Series 62 Sedan Description
This is a highly desirable pre-War model prior to shut down of auto production for war industry. Elderly collector has terminated renovation due to health. 95% that had been done is to above Average standards, (in my opinion.) All body and interior trims are complete, (except for missing ash tray.)
In just 10 years after the Model A, which cruises comfortable at only 50 mph, technology had progressed to V-8 performance suitable for modern highways. It is not 100% original as it has a 1972 Cadillac 500 c.c. and its matching automatic transmission, giving it neck breaking retro rod performance. I can tell you, it's really a fun car to drive! 1972 replacement parts are available at low cost. (Under dash air conditioner available on Ebay.) Registration has been current for many years.
The vehicle presents well with a 2-tone (close to original) Cimarron Green Poly. It is a nice paint job, not show quality. The car starts, drives, steers and stops as it should, (even better with the 72 power steering!)
