1949 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible Coupe – Maroon
This 1949 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible Coupe represents a landmark moment in American automotive history, combining elegant postwar styling with groundbreaking engineering. Finished in rich Maroon over a luxurious Black leather interior, this classic Cadillac is a stunning example of one of the most significant vehicles ever produced. As the year Motor Trend named Cadillac its first-ever “Car of the Year,” this model helped define the future of American luxury and performance.
Maroon Exterior: Deep, glossy finish that perfectly complements the car's flowing lines and iconic design.
Black Convertible Top: A timeless pairing that enhances its sophisticated presence. Chrome Spoke Wire Wheels: Classic luxury styling paired with wide whitewall tires for an unmistakable stance. Bright Chrome Trim: Including signature grille, rocker moldings, and detailed accents throughout.
Black Leather Interior: Plush and refined, offering premium comfort true to Cadillac's heritage. Power Windows: Advanced convenience feature for its time. Horizontal Speedometer: Distinctive dashboard design introduced in 1949. Twin Back-Up Lights: Mounted on the decklid, a hallmark of Cadillac innovation.
With its 126-inch wheelbase and nearly 216-inch overall length, this Cadillac delivers an exceptionally smooth and commanding ride. The 1949 model year marked a turning point for the brand, highlighted by the introduction of its powerful new V8 engine—at the time, the most advanced in the industry. Only around 8,000 Series 62 convertibles were produced, making this a rare and highly collectible example.
Recognized by the Milestone Car Society as a true Milestone Car, this 1949 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible Coupe is a remarkable piece of automotive history. Elegant, innovative, and beautifully presented, it is the perfect addition to any serious collection or for those who appreciate the golden age of American luxury.
