Cadillac Other 1950 Description

Here we have a 1950 Cadillac Series 62 4 door. I am the third owner in 65 years.

It has original paint, ngine, ransmission, ven the headliner is original and intact.

Awesome patina to the paint!

Granted, he paint is original and shines up nice but is not free of defects. The paint is far from perfect, brasions and There are some minor surface rust areas, he roof and the trunk lid are showing paint chips, ooks 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, he front floors have also been patched--again it was a long time ago--from the bottom it is hard to tell they are patches, lso, he inside leading edge of the rear wheel well have patches--nothing major, e did some small patches to keep the NEW carpeting from getting damaged

Interior has had the red highlights on the dash resprayed, he seats have fitted vinyl covers as the original seat fabric is in poor condition, he headliner is great, auges all work, indow go up and down smoothly, he radio is disconnected and missing the knobs, he glove box liner is a poor repair, arpet 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, ust 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, rives straight down the road. Has NEW master cylinder, nd brakes are in good condition., ires have tread left and feature PORTAWALL whitewalls, t has a muffler without a tailpipe that reaches the rear of the car--could use an exhaust, eeds gas tank cleaned

battery and voltage regulator are new

The trunk pan is in good shape, till has the original jack instructions

Chrome is all original, here is pitting and some holes, till 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, he car turns a lot of heads, uns good--I would drive it anywhere--it has survived for 65 years, t is an original Wisconsin car--I do have the original Cadillac underhood identification card showing the purchaser, ealership, elivery date--it was still under the hood!

Headlights, rake lights, ail lights, ipers all work--it is a driver that you can drive anywhere!
Clock is inoperable, lso horn needs repair on the steering wheel, think the spring broke as horns work with power directly applied.
