Vehicle Description
This fully restored and sorted 1940 Cadillac Series 62 Club Coupe is a proven concours winner that is ideal for touring or for show. The curvaceous lines and abundance of chrome make this one of the most stunning designs of the pre-War classics. This Coupe is a concours quality restoration. This Cadillac received a bare-metal respray in Oxblood Maroon Iridescent (Paint Code 11) which was expertly applied and has deep shine and brilliant depth. The chrome and brightwork are brilliant, having undergone a professional refinishing in preparation for the national shows. The steel wheels are color-matched to the body with bright, wide white wall tires and the chrome hubcaps with Cadillac crests appear like new. The rubber stone guards adorning the rear fenders are also in excellent condition. The panel fit is exceptional and the quality of the craftsmanship is excellent in every respect. The undercarriage is detailed and shows well. The exterior overall would be considered near showroom new. The interior of this Coupe is exceptional and appears showroom new. The interior upholstery is beautifully finished and feels brand new in the proper Tan Herringbone Cloth (Trim Code 52). The tan painted dash matches well and is outfitted with sweep style gauges, an AM radio, clock, and locking glovebox. All instrumentation is in working order. This Cadillac underwhent a conversion to a modern 12 volt system. The three-spoke steering wheel appears as new with a turn indicator stalk on the left and the shifter mounted on the right of the column. Overall impressions of the interior are of the highest quality. The venerable and all original 346 CID V8 is whisper quiet. The entire drivetrain was rebuilt and the engine was professionally balanced during the restoration process. The engine provides ample power to the three-speed manual transmission which shifts between the gears smoothly and with confidence. Steering and suspension feels natural, and the cabin noise is minimal.
