						  An amazing example of Harley Earl styling, one of only 3,100 built in the last model year before World War II!					

The pre-war years of the late 1930‘s and early 1940’s saw sweeping changes in the US automotive industry, with both form and function changing greatly. The emergence of the domestic economy from The Great Depression allowed manufacturers to expand and increase production.

The Cadillac division of General Motors introduced the Series 62 model for the 1940 model year. For the second year offering in 1941, legendary GM designer Harley Earl refined the car to a look that absolutely screams “mid-century modern” well ahead of the middle of the century. The 1941 model year was the last full model year produced before the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and domestic automobile production was halted to support the country’s war effort.

Cadillac sales were strong in 1941, with the Series 62 drawing power from a 346 cubic inch V8 engine backed with a three-speed column-shifted manual transmission allowing for six-passenger seating. A total of 3,100 convertible coupes were manufactured, accounting for a small percentage of total Series 62 sales. It is unknown how many of these cars exist today.

The 1941 Cadillac Series 62 convertible coupe is one of those 3,100 built and has been a part of the present owner’s classic car portfolio since August of 2003. Powered by the correct drivetrain, the car presents in a beautiful maroon finish with a matching maroon leather interior. The car’s brightwork is still impressive and the placement of the Cadillac crest on the steering wheel and fender skirts leave no guesswork as to the marque of this impressive car. A tan convertible top contrasts nicely with the maroon paint.

The present owner has driven this car extensively over the years, participating in events such as Hemmings Motor News Great Race. The car has been stored in a humidity-controlled environment under his ownership. This vehicle would be an excellent addition to any Cadillac collector’s portfolio or make an excellent cornerstone to build a luxury car collection around.
