Seller’s notes about this car
The 1949 sedan offered here was previously part of the James C. Miller collection before it was acquired by Charles Cawley, known among collectors for seeking out high-quality, highly original cars. Purchased by the consignor from the Cawley estate in 2015, the car is believed to be in largely original condition. At cataloguing time, the odometer showed 45,495 miles, with title documents indicating it is actual mileage. This Cadillac is awash in chrome from the grille to the iconic fins. Luxurious and easy to drive thanks to its automatic transmission, this amazing time capsule Cadillac is a must-own for any dedicated collector of Cadillacs or mid-century Americana, or for anyone seeking to experience the best post-war America had to offer.
The year 1948 saw a short run of somewhat limited production that paved the way for the stunning automobiles of 1949, including the example offered here. In 1949, the exceptional new Seaholm-designed 160-horsepower, 331-cubic-inch, overhead valve, V-8 engine replaced the ponderous, aging 346-cubic-inch, side-valve unit of the previous year. Combining the iconic tail-fin design with the lighter, more powerful V-8 proved a winning combination, with more than 37,000 Series 62 Sedans being produced.
The 1949 Cadillac was one of the fastest production cars built in America that year, so impressive that it was named Motor Trend?s very first Car of the Year after the publication launched in 1949. Success soon followed, both on the street and the racetrack, with 1949 Cadillacs being campaigned by Briggs Cunningham at the 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race, and Sydney Allard using Cadillac power for his iconic J-2 Allard racing cars. Just one look at the exceptional example offered here makes it clear why 1949 was the springboard for Cadillac?s post-war luxury market dominance.
