DESCRIPTION
This 1949 Cadillac Series 61 Touring Sedan, with its original warranty tag still intact, exudes power and prestige. The sleek black exterior amplifies its substantial presence on the road. Massive chrome bumpers bookend the body, while the bold front grille announces its arrival. Distinctive tail fins, a Cadillac signature, slice through the air with authority. Wide whitewall tires, sized at 235/75R15, wrap around 15-inch wheels, crowned by gleaming Cadillac hubcaps. Fender skirts accentuate the flowing bodyline, creating a seamless profile. The split windshield, a nod to pre-war designs, adds a unique visual element. The chrome side trim runs the length of the vehicle, breaking up the expanse of black paint. Dual chrome turndown exhaust tips peek out from the rear, hinting at the V8\'s capabilities.
The interior of this Cadillac showcases vintage luxury at its finest. Restored with meticulous attention to detail, the cabin features a striking combination of gray cloth upholstery accented with red details. Spacious front and rear bench seats offer ample room for passengers to stretch out in comfort. The painted dash houses the factory gauge cluster, its clean lines complemented by an aftermarket water temperature gauge for enhanced engine monitoring. Gray dual cord and gray plain broadcloth trim create an atmosphere of refined sophistication. The column-mounted shifter for the 4-speed Hydramatic automatic transmission adds a touch of convenience to the driving experience.
At the core of this Cadillac sits the groundbreaking 331 cubic inch V8 engine, a powerhouse that revolutionized the automotive industry upon its debut. Paired with the 4-speed Hydramatic automatic transmission, this drivetrain delivers smooth, effortless acceleration. The engine bay presents impressively, showcasing the V8 in all its glory. Modern upgrades include a 12-volt electrical system with an alternator, enhancing reliability for today\'s driving conditions. The dual exhaust system, featuring aftermarket mufflers, likely produces a subtle yet authoritative tone. Power steering ensures easy maneuverability, while drum brakes provide stopping power suited to this classic cruiser\'s capabilities.
