General description :
1953 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible with Continental Kit
Registration: 823XUJ
Spectacularly restored by a leading American restorer; This Cadillac is ready to be shown & to win prizes. The car is perfection finished in a deep metallic blue/purple colour scheme. To the interior is unmarked beige hide throughout piped in dark blue.
The car drives as if it were a 1970's car not an early 1950's model. The strong V8 engine makes for effortless cruising allied to an easy to use column shift gearbox. The power hood glides up & down at the touch of a button. This is a particularly desirable model with the optional rare parade boot kit fitted. Indicated mileage is 88,000.
The front of the car is covered in acres of chrome all redone to a fine standard. The boot is cavernous allowing for massive luggage carrying capacity.
This is a car that wants for nothing & will win prizes when entered at car shows. The car previously won best in country in USA was accepted for the Concourse d'elegance at the Palace of Holyrood house, selected by Paul Wood and accepted by the committee etc
