1949 Cadillac Fleetwood Series 60 SpecialComplete Ground Up Nut And Bolt Restoration!Less Then 1,000 Miles Since Completion Hydraulic Power Windows, Hydromatic Auto V8 Back in the 30’s and 40’s Cadillac was the ultimate luxury car. It ran against the likes of Duisenberg and were admired and driven only by the wealthy and prestige. There was no doubt that when someone arrived in a Cadillac, they arrived in style and class and started the engagement. Back in this era is when they coined the phrase….”it’s the Cadillac of…..”. No matter if you had a lawn mower, an electric shaver, or even shoe laces, when someone described to you the excellence of what they had they would say, “it’s the Cadillac of lawn mowers….” No other car brand has done that ever in its life until then and even until today. It has seemed that time has passed, and nowadays it’s hard to tell what is an import and what is American made. But back in those days, a Cadillac ruled the roost in the ultimate luxury driving machine. This 1949 has every right to brag about her glory days. She cruised down the boulevard in style 65 years ago and even today as she floats across American asphalt, she seems ghostly and mysterious yet she is still a lady…..WOW. Please read on about the absolutely stunning luxury liner and let us know of any questions you may have. Exterior: As you can see from the pictures, this Cadillac is drop dead gorgeous. It has received a complete frame off, nut and bolt restoration and only has around 1000 miles on it since completion. It is dressed in deep triumph midnight blue (Factory Color) and shows with great luster and pride. The body is laser straight and the panel fit is beautiful. The chrome has all been redone and has a brilliant shine. The bright work is polished and shines extremely well. All the glass is intact and clear. All the lights and signals work properly and even still has the spare tire inflator mounted on the rear tail panel. The body is solid and completely rust free. The floors are also solid and rust free. Every nut and bolt has been paint stakingly restored. The tires are new bias plyed 3” wide whites. Please look at the beauty in the picture and pay attention to the detail of this vehicle. Also, you may or may not recall, this style Cadillac is the beginning of the tailfin era. Cadillac was always saying to its Detroit competitors…..”Catch me if you can”. Yet again in 1959 Cadillac had the largest fins ever produced on a production vehicle. Speedo is not working?

This beautifully done interior consists of the originally restored hydraulic power windows and even the power seat works.
