1956 Cadillac Series 62 Sedan deVille
This vintage 50's Caddy, designed by Harley Earl, has seen better days, but makes for some beautiful decay. Scroll down to see what this beast looked like new.
For 1956 the Cadillac Series 62 was restyled, with changes appearing throughout the vehicle. A new grille could now be found in the front, and repositioned bumper lights now resting in the bumper. The Eldorado series of the Model 62 line-up consisted of a two-door Hardtop Coupe Seville and a Coupe Biarritz. Both had two doors and seating for six. Their base price was well above the regular Series 62, costing a hefty $6,500. The base Series 62, in comparison, cost $4150. A total of 3,900 buyers selected the Eldorado Hardtop Coupe Seville and 2150 purchased the Eldorado Convertible Biarritz. The most popular bodystyle in the Series 62 lineup was the four-door Sedan DeVille which saw 41,732 examples produced.
