This 1940 Cadillac Series 60 Fleetwood marks an automotive milestone as the final production year featuring the distinctive torpedo-style headlights as well as the fender mounted spare tires. The Oxblood Maroon paint shows off its massive presence on the road, while those symmetrical dual spare tires flank the elongated front fenders like metallic sentries. The chrome detailing flows across the body, from the bold grille to the handcrafted bumpers, all accented by the Cadillac hubcaps and wide whitewall 215/85R16 tires mounted on 16-inch wheels.
The grey leather interior stretches across the cabin like a high-end hotel lobby. The bench seats accommodate passengers in first-class comfort, while the wood grain dash serves as a control center for the authentic 6-volt gauges. A dedicated battery system hidden in the kick panel maintains the original instrumentation, and the under-dash air conditioning adds modern comfort. The carpeted trunk includes a convenient light built into the lid for nighttime loading.
The 346 CI V8 dominates with raw American muscle, mated to a 3-speed manual transmission. The aluminum radiator and electric cooling fans bring 21st-century temperature management to this classic powerplant. Suspension duties fall to front coil springs paired with rear leaf springs and a sway bar. Having been converted to a 12V system, the factory gauges remain 6 volt and run off a separate battery in the kick panel.
