This 1959 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible underwent a cosmetic restoration after being owned by a single family since new. In the over 125 years of American automotive history, few cars were as iconic as the 1959 Cadillac. While some critics thought the design was too over-the-top at the time, the '59 Cadillac today is truly a beacon of classic automobile styling. Although Cadillac's final 50s body style remained styled like a Cadillac, a deeper dive reveals that 1959 was, to an extent, a transitional year for where Cadillac designers would be heading in the future. Sitting atop the new-look front bumper was a new bullet-style grille that spanned between two pairs of headlights on each side, retaining that classic Cadillac "egg-crate" flavor but with a more modern twist. While the nose of the 1959 Cadillacs were significantly redesigned, the most famous update occurred to side and rear profile of the cars. The new rear quarter panels in 1959 were adorned with a pair of massive tail fins on each side that gives the '59 Cadillacs their iconic silhouette. Sitting between the rear quarters was a faux grille that matches the bullet-style of the front grille. On the inside, the 1959 Cadillacs were ultra-luxurious as well, and the options were also quite plentiful and ahead-of-their-time. The Series 62 Convertible was the entry-level convertible for Cadillac in 1959, and comparatively speaking, they were significantly more affordable than the top-tier Eldorado Biarritz. This particular Series 62 Convertible was believed to have been in the same family since the car was purchased new, having been enjoyed by the previous owner and their mother for nearly 65 years. It has a 390 V8 fed by a single 4 barrel carburetor, backed by a recently rebuilt Hydra-Matic Automatic transmission. Exhaust exits the Cadillac 390 powerplant via dual exhaust setup and it has nice options like power steering, power brakes and dealer-added air conditioning. The white vinyl power convertible top is in wonderful condition and goes up and down with the simple flick of a switch. Riding on a set of wide whitewall bias-ply tires paired with a set of full wheelcovers, this 1959 Cadillac Series 62 has a great look going down the road. The exterior of this '59 Cadillac convertible has been beautifully and correctly refinished in Dover White, just how this car came back in 1959. The interior on this '59 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible is absolutely gorgeous! The front power seat and rear bench have been recently reupholstered in turquoise leather. The door panels, padded dash, steering wheel and carpeting are all correctly color-matched and appear to be in fantastic condition. All four power windows work great and go up and down, all with the push of a button. The instrument cluster is comprised of a 120 MPH speedometer, temperature gauge, and fuel gauge. The dash is completed with a clock, climate controls, and a push-button AM radio.
