1940
Cadillac Series 60S Four-Door Sedan For Sale
This car was bought in Toronto in the mid-1970’s. It was freshly restored at the
time and was purchased from the restoration shop that carried out the work.
The car was used lightly from the 1970’s through the late 1990’s. At that time
it was parked and it remained in storage until 2022.
A light recommissioning was carried out as it needed little to return it to
running condition. The brakes were also returned to working condition but some
additional work will be required to make them road ready.
The car was finished in Medium Tan over Seminole Brown when restored and the
paint remains in good condition with no signs of aging. Only a few chips were
seen and there is no road abrasion on the paint of the front end. This was not
the car’s original colour, which is not known as it was a “Special Order” car
when new with no trim or paint codes on the data tag.
The body does have some repaired areas but any work from the 1970’s restoration
has held up well with no current work required.
The “numbers matching “ original 346 CID flathead V8 engine is in running
condition. The car’s serial number is stamped on the rear of the block. This
engine was also used in the M5 Stuart tank and the M24 Chaffee tank during WWII.
The engine is mated to a 3-speed column shifted manual transmission.
The interior remains in very good restored condition with only a few minor
issues.
The 1940 Cadillac 60 Special Sedan is considered a “Full Classic” by the Antique
Automobile Club of America. If you are not familiar with this designation,
simply Google it up.
