Car: Cadillac Series 62 Coupe
Year: 1950
What makes it special: The Sixty-Two Series of Cadillac was produced for the 1940 through 1964 model years, and was created to replace the Series 65 entry level model. It is also known as the Series 62, and became the Series 6200 in the 1959 model year until getting renamed the Cadillac Calais in 1965.
What made it famous: Major restyling happened to the Series 62 for the 1950 model year, as it became lower, sleeker, and was given a longer hood and a one-piece windshield. It was powered by a 190bhp, 1-barrel 331 cu in engine mated to either a 3-speed manual or Hydramatic transmission.
Why I would want one: It’s a long running series of Cadillac. Love the long hood, low profile of the car.
Fun fact: The Series 62 became the Calais model in the 1965 model year.
