This 1949 Cadillac Series 61 Club Coupe is a beautiful example of Cadillac's fastback Sedanette model. Finished in elegant Triumph Blue Metallic over a grey fabric interior, this grand Coupe is in very good overall condition. After laying dormant for years, this handsome Cadillac benefitted from a restoration in 2009, bringing it to its current presentation. The metallic blue paintwork suits the car nicely and shines brightly like the extensive chrome work adorning the exterior. Inside, the period-correct grey cloth interior is in very good condition and retains some original pieces as well. Following its largely cosmetic restoration in 2009, the 331 cubic-inch V8 engine was overhauled in 2011 and fitted with a new exhaust system. The brakes and other mechanical components were tended to as well. More recently, the fuel system was completely refurbished, from rebuilding the carburetor to cleaning the gas tank and all the steps, hoses, and apparatus between. Offered from a prestigious and well-known East Coast collection, this Series 61 Cadillac Club Coupe is a striking example of the legendary marque's elegant fastback model, ready to be driven and enjoyed by its next owner.

In 1949, Cadillacs were still very much Cadillacs. The division had its own brand-new overhead-valve engine, its own identity, and a clientele that thought of it products as the very best. It didn't matter much that the body designs differed only in detail from the '48s. These were America's best and there was that silky-smooth V-8 engine under the imposing hood.
While the V-8 engine produced only moderate power, it was incredibly smooth, had gobs of torque, and was only at the very beginning of its development potential. Frequently mated to the optional ($174) Hydra-matic automatic transmission, the 1949 Cadillacs were effortless cruisers and conveyed an image of success and discerning taste. Indeed, none other than famed American sportsman Briggs Cunningham drove a Series 62 Cadillac himself, and in 1950 a Cunningham-entered Cadillac Coupe De Ville finished tenth at Le Mans 24 Hours that year driven - in lounge suits - by the Collier brothers. Although the body style featuring GM styling chief Harley Earl's Lockheed P38-inspired tailfins had made its debut the preceding year, the 1949 Cadillacs are nonetheless landmark models.
This 1949 Cadillac Series 61 Club Coupe is a beautiful example of Cadillac's fastback Sedanette model. Offered from a prominent Utah-based collection of exceptional motorcars, this handsome Cadillac benefits from a comprehensive restoration carried out in the 1990s, which has been cared for and maintained beautifully. The metallic green paintwork suits the car nicely and shines brightly like the extensive chrome work adorning the exterior. Inside, the period-correct striped tan cloth interior is in very good condition and retains some original pieces as well. The OHV V8 engine purrs well and is mated to the smooth Hydra-matic automatic transmission. This Series 61 Cadillac Club Coupe is a striking example of the legendary marque's elegant fastback model, ready to be driven and enjoyed by its next owner.
