Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Indianapolis is proud to feature this 1940 Cadillac Series Sixty Special! Pure glamour, this 1940 Series 60 with rakish styling, revolutionary yet tasteful for demure 1940, has carefully blended chrome and brightwork. There is enough chrome in the grill alone to make another entire car! These graceful sweeping fenders compliment a svelte hood concealing a 345 ci monobloc flathead V8. This powerhouse went from 0 to 60 in just under 14 seconds (things were slower back then, work with me- I am building momentum here ) which was a rush for the period of time and is still a thrill when companioned with one of the most beautiful body styles luxurious Cadillac ever offered the 1940's, the epitome of style, elegance and taste!
This Cadillac comes with lots of documentation including a copy of the first photos of it with its first family and a good paper trail that can trace back to the original owners.
