Park Place LTD is pleased to present this elegant Series 62 Touring Sedan shown in stately Amherst Blue and contrasted with a lovely Gray Bedford Cord and Blue Plain Broadcloth interior.This wonderful example has known but one family since being sold new by Sax Motors in Dickinson North Dakota to Mr. Ben Meggers of Rhame ND in 1948. It was since passed down to Mr. Meggers great-niece in the early 2000s after which time a full restoration was commissioned and completed in 2003-04 by Moslanders Rod and Custom in Monroe Washington. The achieved show-quality results have held up superbly with pride in ownership immediately obvious to even the most finicky observer. The 1 063 miles showing on the odometer were recorded since the completion of its restoration as this wonderful automobile has been used mainly for Concours events and weekend car shows.1948 introduced Cadillacs redesigned lineup the first following WWII and was arguably the first automobile to feature integrated rear fins -- styling influenced by the iconic P38 Lighting warbird. The workhorse 346c.i. L-head V8 (carried over from the previous model year) and backed by a HydraMatic transmission was a combination befitting a Cadillac with its ultra-quiet smooth operation and dependable service. Styling was enhanced by full Sombrero wheel covers front bumper-mounted Dagmars a wide cross-hatch egg crate grille and distinct polished body side moldings that added an appearance of motion -- a hint of the upcoming jet age.The nearly one-of-a-kind Touring Sedan on offer here features wide whites an exterior windshield visor AM radio back-up lamps windshield washers dual rearview mirrors and an anti-glare interior rearview mirror. Thoughtful and nearly invisible updates include power front disc brakes supplemental oil filtration radial tires an integrated audio system seat belts and a remote locking system. The paint (code #2) and interior (code #41) are correct per the original trim tag which denotes Fisher body #22199.The fortunate new owner of this striking Cadillac will receive shop receipts and photographs documenting the restoration as well as a summary written by Mr. Meggers niece authenticating its history.
