DESIGNER BILL MITCHELL! FAMOUS DESIGNER FOR CADILLAC IN 1948!!
THE CADILLAC SIXTY SPECIAL NAME WOULD BE RESERVED FOR CADILLAC'S MOST LUXURIOUS
AUTOMOBILE. A SIXTY SPECIAL TRADEMARK WAS THE DECORATIVE CHROME LOUVERS THAT
COULD BE FOUND ON THE SIDES OF THE CAR. THE CAR ALSO SHOWCASED SIDE SCOOPS AND
THE FAMOUS TAIL-FINS IN THE REAR.
THE 1948 CADILLAC FLEETWOOD SIXTY SPECIAL WAS DESIGNATED AS A MILESTONE CAR
FROM THE MILESTONE CAR SOCIETY. CONSIDERED ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL DESIGNED
CADILLAC'S IN HISTORY! THE CAR HAS MANY INFLUENCES FROM THE LOCKHEED P-38. THE
NEW DASHBOARD WITH RAINBOW STYLE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WAS INSTITUTED FOR THE
FIRST TIME IN 1948.
THE MOTORCAR IS STRIKING IN THE JET BLACK EXTERIOR WITH THE CHROME ACCENTS.
HAS THE FACTORY CORRECT FLEETWOOD LETTERS ON THE REAR TRUNK LID.
THE BEAUTIFUL FRONT BUMPER JUST DRIPS IN CHROME. THE CAR ALSO HAS THE FRONT
FACTORY FOG LAMPS.
THE INTERIOR IS ALL ORIGINAL WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE FRONT SEAT UNDER YOUR
SEAT. EVERYTHING ELSE IS THE ORIGINAL 70 YEAR OLD LEATHER/CLOTH COMBINATION.
ALL THE DOOR PANELS, UPHOLSTERY,HEADLINER,DASH, ETC ARE ALL ORIGINAL. REALLY
QUITE REMARKABLE CONSIDERING THE CAR IS OVER 70 YEARS OLD. THE HEADLINER ALSO
HAS THE ORIGINAL CHROME CENTER LIGHT INCLUDED.
*** YOU CAN SEE THE ORIGINAL LEATHER SEAT EDGES IMPRINTED ON THE REAR DOOR PANELS.
WHEN THE REAR DOORS ARE CLOSED AFTER 70 YEARS THE DOOR PANELS PUSH AGAINST
THE REAR LEATHER SEATS AND THE BLACK LEATHER ACTUALLY LEFT A SHADOW ON THE
DOOR PANELS. THAT IS ALL ORIGINAL!!! ****
FROM THE FACTORY THE SIXTY SPECIAL CAME WITH A CLOTH/TWEED UPHOLSTERY THAT
WAS LINED AT THE EDGES WITH LEATHER. THIS CAR STILL HAS ALL THE ORIGINAL LEATHER
INTACT, QUITE AMAZING!! ALL THE UPPER DOOR PANELS ARE FEATURED WITH METAL AS WELL
AS THE DASH AREA. ALL THE UPPER DOOR PANELS AND DASH AREA ARE IN A BLACK PAINTED
COLOR.
THIS REALLY IS AN AMAZING CAR. A RARE FIND FOR SURE!!
THE 346 ENGINE BAY IS IN BEAUTIFUL CONDITION. THE MOTOR LOOKS GREAT. YOU CAN SEE
THE VIN # STAMPED ON THE ENGINE BLOCK SHOWING THE ENGINE MATCHES TO THE CAR
ORIGINALLY IN 1948. ALL NUMBERS MATCHING!!
