Upon its debut in 1940 the Series 62 was showed considerable promise for Cadillac. In its second year in production it was heavily reworked with new front-end styling with a low wide grille and headlamps integrated into the fenders marking Cadillacs arrival into the modern era. The beautiful new styling combined with an exceptionally well-balanced chassis to make the Series 62 one of the best performing luxury cars of the period and buyers snapped up nearly 25000 Series 62s in 1941 representing a five-fold increase over the previous year. Today these marvelous Cadillacs are revered by enthusiasts for their combination of prewar style and post-war road manners.This beautifully restored 1941 Series 62 is one of just 3100 cars built with style number 6267D the stylish and desirable convertible coupe coachwork.

Wide whitewall tires and Cadillac emblem center caps add a dramatic pop against the black paint and the black Haartz canvas top is excellent displaying superlative fit and finish.The impressive presentation continues inside with gorgeous charcoal gray leather upholstery and black carpets bound in matching gray leather. The spacious comfortable cabin retains all of the charm and character of the original 41 Cadillac but is subtly updated for comfort and convenience. In addition to the gorgeous leather trim the dash is meticulously restored with correct woodgrain-effect paint. Original instruments a factory radio and the restored Bakelite steering wheel help retain the period appeal while electric windows (integrated into original cranks) and the column shift for the TH-400 and discreetly fitted air conditioning ensure smooth operation and year-round comfort for all those aboard.Beneath the hood sits a massive 500 cubic inch Cadillac V8 topped with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and featuring a rotary Delco A/C compressor alternator and power steering.
