The 59 Cadillac was made famous by its exaggerated tailfins. Inspired by jet aircraft, they make a bold statement as much today as it did in 1959! This is an excellent example from a true car collector/enthusiast. We purchased a collection of Cadillacs from a friend that believed in driving his cars. As a matter of fact, I don't know of anything he enjoyed more.

EXTERIOR: It seems as long as a football field and looking down both sides it is straight as an arrow. This is a very clean body that fits very nicely. I don't see any damage. Repainted its original code 10 Ebony black. It is polished smooth and glossy, sure there are some minor flaws if you look for them but overall it's like a mirror. Overall the chrome and trim is also shiny and straight. The bullets in the grille and the tail panel are not broken. The convertible top was upgraded with a rich black cloth and has a custom matching boot. The hubcaps are shiny and they're wrapped in big radial white wall tires.

INTERIOR: It has a very nice interior and there's always two things I check first on a 59 Cadillac: number one is the dash pad because they all warped and split. This one has been properly replaced, it does not have a cheap plastic cap glued on it. The other thing is the upholstery, is it genuine leather or much cheaper vinyl? This one was reupholstered in genuine leather with correct pattern and buttons. The leather is soft. The interior lights work and overall nothing is abused. All the trim, door panels, instruments look to be in very good shape. It has cold modern air conditioning system neatly added. Other upgrades include seatbelts and embroidered mats. Factory options include power windows, power seat, power antenna and an autronic eye.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It's a very clean engine compartment. You can tell it's been apart: all the metal surfaces are painted nicely and the bolts are cadmium plated. It has a reproduction Delco battery along with a disconnect switch. Upgraded air conditioning system was neatly installed and the generator is upgraded to an alternator. Factory features include power steering, power brakes, an oil filter and windshield washers. The 390 motor runs smooth and produces 325 hp. The 4 barrel carb was rebuilt. Valley, valve cover and water intake gaskets were replaced. It's dressed up nicely in Cadillac valve covers.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The complete liner kit has been replaced. It has the full jack and spare assembly The weatherstrip is soft and it includes a few shop manuals as well.

UNDERSIDE: Under this car looks very clean, solid and properly maintained. Staring and suspension components all look fairly fresh. The exhaust has mufflers and resonators for that quiet Cadillac tone. Brakes are in good working order e-brake is hooked up. Looking up at the motor and the Hydramatic transmission they are clean. It is the original 1959 transmission for this car. It has a cruising 2.94 gear in the rear end.

SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square ft service center, and hired a team of technicians to work it. This is so we can sell you the best cars within reason.

CONCLUSION: This car epitomizes the exuberance and excess of 1950s America, a time of confidence and self-indulgence. I can't think of. Any modern car costing less than a million dollars that would draw more attention than this one! This is an excellent example, it looks and functions amazingly well!
