for sale

Price: US $7,950.00

Description:

Here we have a 1950 Cadillac Series 62 4 door. I am the third owner in 65 years.
It has original paint, engine, transmission, even the headliner is original and intact.
Awesome patina to the paint!
Granted, the paint is original and shines up nice but is not free of defects. The paint is far from perfect, abrasions and There are some minor surface rust areas, the roof and the trunk lid are showing paint chips, looks great if you are wanting a original car--love the look myself
There is evidence of a repair in the past--left rear leading edge of the fender--cannot see where the paint may have been blended--could have been a repair done many years ago, the front floors have also been patched--again it was a long time ago--from the bottom it is hard to tell they are patches, also, the inside leading edge of the rear wheel well have patches--nothing major, we did some small patches to keep the NEW carpeting from getting damaged
Interior has had the red highlights on the dash resprayed, the seats have fitted vinyl covers as the original seat fabric is in poor condition, the headliner is great, gauges all work, window go up and down smoothly, the radio is disconnected and missing the knobs, the glove box liner is a poor repair, carpet is new. Steering Wheel is cracked
The defroster motor is disconnected at this time--I am trying to find a wiring diagram to show me how to hook back up, just the under hood blower is not wired to the switch. Also has the option rear seat electric heater located under the front passenger seat--the blower motor is in need of replacement
The engine runs smooth and transmission shifts well, drives straight down the road. Has NEW master cylinder, and brakes are in good condition., tires have tread left and feature PORTAWALL whitewalls, it has a muffler without a tailpipe that reaches the rear of the car--could use an exhaust, needs gas tank cleaned
battery and voltage regulator are new
The trunk pan is in good shape, still has the original jack instructions
Chrome is all original, there is pitting and some holes, still shows well and shines nice.
The rear fender skirt mounts are not complete and I only have one of the original skirts--drivers side--the other is missing but readily available on ebay
Overall, the car turns a lot of heads, runs good--I would drive it anywhere--it has survived for 65 years, it is an original Wisconsin car--I do have the original Cadillac underhood identification card showing the purchaser, dealership, delivery date--it was still under the hood!
Headlights, brake lights, tail lights, wipers all work--it is a driver that you can drive anywhere!
Clock is inoperable, also horn needs repair on the steering wheel, I think the spring broke as horns work with power directly applied.
