1953 Cadillac Series 62

The Cadillac Series 62 is a series of cars which was produced by Cadillac from 1940 through 1964. Originally designed to replace the entry-level Series 65, it became the Cadillac Series 6200 in 1959 and remained that until it was renamed to Cadillac Calais for the 1965 model year. The 1953 Series 62 saw a redesigned grille with heavier integral bumper and bumper guards, the re positioning of parking lamps directly under the headlights, chrome "eyebrow" type headlamp doors, and one piece rear windows without division bars. Wheel discs were fashioned in an attractive new design. Series 62 body styles were identified by non-louvered rear fenders, the use of thin bright metal underscores on the bottom rear of the cars only and the decoration of both hood and deck lid with Cadillac crests and V- shaped ornaments. The Club Coupe model disappeared. Two door Series 62 were now all hardtops (including the better-equipped Coupe de Ville) or convertibles. Another familiar name appeared on 1953's Series 62. The top of the line sub series Eldorado was one of three specialty convertibles produced in 1953 by General Motors, the other two being the Oldsmobile 98 Fiesta and the Buick Roadmaster Skylark. The Eldorado was a limited-edition luxury convertible, and would eventually become its own series. It featured a full assortment of deluxe accessories, including wire wheels, and introduced the wraparound windshield to Cadillac standard production. Sales set a new record at 85,446.
