1953 Cadillac Coupe De Ville

Fast440 is pleased to offer this 1953 Cadillac Series 62 Coupe De Ville. An extremely well preserved example, always maintained and repaired to be road ready, Garage Kept It's entire life with the same conscientious collector/owner since the early 1990's. During this period of ownership, very High Quality Clear-Coat paint work was applied along with attentive body work on an already very straight example. The color Black shows no, and no ripples anywhere. Tough challenge for the guy who had to paint it Black. This Coupe is slick, straight and sinister looking, but not too over the top. Bring your Refrigerator Magnet, put it to the test, and it will stick everywhere on the Texas Solid example. Amazing for 61 years-old. No dents, dings or scratches, and major Exterior Trim Components such as Bumpers and Grille Assembly have been re-Chromed. The Kelsey Hayes Wire Wheels are in great shape, and the fat recent and Radial Tires give the car an aggressive stance as well as exceptional road manners. A Continental Kit recently added only accentuates the car's long lines. All Extrerior Stainless Trim Items are Factory Original and in amazingly well preserved condition. All Glass Panels are original to the car, great shape too with the exception of a hairline crack on the Passenger-Side Door. Overall, beautiful.

The Interior of this Caddy is a feat for the eyes for those who appreciate Time Capsule original. Imagine the condition of the Factory Original Seat Upholstery underneath the Dealer installed protective plastic. That treat, we will save for the new owner. Everything works with except the Clock and Wonder Bar Radio. Power Seat, all Hydraulic powered windows, everything.

Mechanics are sound, Motor Transmission, Brakes Suspension, everything. A reminder that it was always maintained to go anywhere right now. Ready to cruise in elegant style ?

Please call us immediately with any questions or concerns.

Thank you, Fast440/Brent.

Here is a little Tid-Bit of interesting History on the Series 62 you may not already know about..............

Three GM divisions had 50th anniversaries in 1953, and celebrated by issuing expensive, flashy limited editions, all big convertibles with Motorama-inspired styling features. Buick offered the Skylark and Oldsmobile the 98 Fiesta. Cadillac's birthday model appeared in the Series 62 as the Eldorado. Only 532 were built that year, largely because of a towering $7750 price. Among its attractions: custom interior, special cut-down "Panoramic" wraparound windshield, sporty "notched" beltline, and a metal lid instead of a canvas boot to cover the lowered top. A striking piece, it was a preview of Cadillacs to come-and, of course, the start of a now long-famous line. Incidentally, some '53 Cadillacs were built with Buick Dynaflow after a fire in the Hydra-Matic plant at Willow Run reduced available transmission supplies, though this situation lasted only a few months.

SERIES 62
Changes seen in 1953 included a redesigned grille with heavier integral bumper and bumper guards, the repositioning of parking lamps directly under the Headlights, chrome "eyebrow" type headlamp doors and one-piece rear windows without division bars. Wheel discs were fashioned in an attractive new dished design. Series 62 models were identified by non-louvered rear fenders, the use of thin bright metal underscores on the bottom rear of the cars only and the decoration of both hood and deck lid with Cadillac crests and V-shaped ornaments. As was the practice since 1951, Series 62 sedan bodies measured five inches less than the other styles.

A Coupe DeVille roof pillar script was seen again on this luxury hardtop. Standard equipment included all items featured the year before. Late in the production year the limited-edition Eldorado luxury convertible was added to this model range. A full assortment of DeLuxe accessories, including wire wheels, were standard on this specialty car which introduced the wraparound windshield for production models. On August 12, a fire at the Hydra-Matic transmission factory in Livonia, Mich. broke out and would bring a damaging halt to production within a week. It was September 8 before Cadillacs began leaving the factory again.

Please call us immediately with any questions or concerns.

Thank you, Fast440/Brent.

2017 Cadillac XT5 will debut in Dubai

Tue, Sep 8 2015

Cadillac confirmed the 2017 XT5 crossover – the replacement for the SRX Â– will officially debut at the Dubai Motor Show in November. The XT5 will then make its first North American appearance at the Los Angeles Auto Show later that month. The current SRX is a hugely important vehicle for Cadillac Â– it's still the company's best-selling product worldwide. But it's pretty old now, having launched in 2009 as a 2010 model. The XT5 will bolster all of the good things about the SRX while finally bringing that product up to date. Above, you can see a spy shot of what looks to be the new XT5, caught during a photo shoot. "The XT5 will be the cornerstone of a series of crossovers bearing the 'XT' designation," Cadillac said in a statement. We've long known that Cadillac wants to add a CUV between the XT5 and its flagship Escalade. But we think there's also room for something smaller Â– a proper fighter to the expanding entry-level luxury crossover segment that includes the Mercedes-Benz GLA, BMW X1, upcoming Infiniti QX30, and more. We'll have more information on the 2017 XT5 this week. In addition to the auto show news, Cadillac confirmed it will have a few photos and details to share in the coming days. Stay tuned.

What will the next Presidential limo look like?

Thu, 25 Jul 2013

With recent news that the Secret Service has begun soliciting proposals for a new armored limousine, we've been wondering what the next presidential limo might look like. The current machine, nicknamed "The Beast", has a design based on a car that's no longer sold: the Cadillac DTS. If General Motors gets the job again, which wouldn't be a surprise considering the government still owns a chunk of the company, the next limo's shape would likely resemble the new XTS (below, left). But Cadillac hasn't always been the go-to car company for presidential whips.
Lincoln has actually provided far more presidential limousines throughout history than Cadillac. In fact, the first car modified for Commander-in-Chief-carrying duty was a 1939 Lincoln K-Series called "Sunshine Special" used by Franklin D. Roosevelt, and the last Lincoln used by a president was a 1989 Town Car ordered for George H.W. Bush. If President Obama wanted a Lincoln today, it would likely be an amalgam of the MKS sedan and MKT crossover, as illustrated above.
And what about Chrysler? The only record we could find of a President favoring the Pentastar is Nixon, who reportedly ordered two limos from the company during his administration in the '70s, and then another one, known today as the "K-Car limo," in the '80s after he left office. Obama, however, has a personal - if modest - connection to Chryslers, having owned a 300 himself before he took office. A 300-based Beast (above, right) would certainly earn the U.S. some style points.
