SUMMARY

"It's automatic, it's systematic, it's hydra-matic" - it's Cadillac cool!

DESCRIPTION

  • Cadillac’s 1960 range was an elegant reinterpretation of the previous year’s offering, with subtle modifications including lower rear fins, reshaped front bumpers, vertical stacked tail lamps and a fresh grille design
  • The overall appearance was slightly more restrained than the flamboyantly over-the-top 1959 models, but only just
  • All 1960 Cadillacs were powered by a 390ci V8 delivering 325bhp and mated to a 3-speed Hydra-Matic transmission
  • This dramatic 6200 Convertible is finished in Platinum Grey Iridescent with a classic 1960s Caddy interior in Bright Red
  • Naturally, as the top of the range, it features power everything - steering, brakes, roof, windows and two-way seats
  • It's supplied with a history file which includes its service records and two workshop manuals
  • This sixth-generation Series 62 Cadillac is a piece of classic Americana and we think that this is a seriously tempting proposition given the realistic guide price and sheer scale of this impressive American icon
