This is a truly superb example of a 1955 Cadillac 2 door Hardtop Coupe DeVille which has been beautifully restored and there are no signs of the car having ever been involved in any major accidents and it has absolutely no rust.
The 1955 Cadillac was one of the highest priced cars of its day - and with good reason - fifties excess had virtually reached its peak with Cadillac boasting bigger cars with more chrome and larger fins than ever before! These cars bristled with the latest in modern appointments and had few rivals in the luxury market with a recession making owning one only for the very privileged elite.
This particular southern California example has seemingly been always been garaged and well maintained. The floor boards, trunk and all the typical rust-prone areas are completely solid and rust-free and the car was a very highly optioned car for it's day boasting factory air conditioning which cost an additional $600 + alone (the equivalent of approximately $7,500 today according to the CPI inflation calculator!), therefore making it a very rarely purchased option!
The 331/250HP V8 engine is extremely strong and powerful and sounds absolutely magnificent and this particular car drives very well - does not miss a beat and purrs like a kitten - a truly remarkable daily driver that will give any modern day car a run for it's money! The transmission shifts smoothly through the gears and the car has four good white sidewall tires and its original factory hubcaps!
This is a rare opportunity to own a very honest example of a 1955 Cadillac Coupe DeVille for the serious Cadillac enthusiast or collector. Few more correct or finer looking examples, especially with the desirable factory air conditioning, available anywhere else!
