Description
1959 Cadillac Series 62 Cabriolet Manufacturer: 1959 Cadillac Series 62 Cabriolet Vehicle registration document: German registration certificate Chassis No.: Chassis 59F024947 - The most sought-after ’59 model! - Stunning colour combination - Optional spoked wheels   The ’59 model year is undoubtedly the most sought-after amongst Cadillac collectors, as it represents the pinnacle of a style inspired by excess, flamboyance and, of course, aerospace design. The profusion of chrome, the rocket-engine-shaped wings topped by impressive spoilers featuring ogive-shaped lights, the wealth of equipment – not to mention the 6.4-litre V8 producing 325 cv and its fabulous torque: absolutely everything is extraordinary! The example on display is the most desirable variant, as it is a convertible. Sold new in the USA, it features the colour that probably best showcases its breathtaking, chrome-accented lines: black. The interior, meanwhile, is brightened by red and cream upholstery, which adds just the right touch of cheerfulness to the overall look. It joined the collection of the current owner – a lover of black Cadillac convertibles – in 2010. The car had undergone a restoration, including the upholstery, and was fitted with optional spoked wheels. It naturally features a fully functional electric soft top, as well as four electric windows. With power steering and power brakes, this Cadillac is extremely easy to drive despite its size; it will be welcomed with open arms at concours d’élégance events. More than just a car, this is a masterpiece of design from America’s most iconic era; it belongs just as much on a museum plinth as it does on the open road.
