Cadillac Series 62 Coupe DeVille

The Series 62 Coupe DeVille was one of Cadillac's defining mid-1950s cars, a two-door hardtop built around chrome, tailfins and sheer length. This 1956 example is UK-registered as 476XVY and comes from a private collection.

It is finished in dark red with a white roof, with an off-white interior and red carpets. The dealer reports a major restoration, including re-chromed brightwork, a replaced headlining and a relined boot. The engine bay is described as tidy.

Power comes from a V8 of 350 cubic inches, which the dealer says starts readily and pulls well from low revs, paired with an automatic gearbox said to shift smoothly. No mileage or ownership history is given on the page. The listing shows the price as accepted, suggesting an offer has been agreed.
