1949 Cadillac 4-door sedan – Believed to be a Series 61, but unable to verify

Description

I have owned this vehicle for 15+ years and dreamed of making it like new, however my future plans have changed and I will sell it to someone that can follow my dream. Listed below is information on the car and in most cases the pictures will show what I am referring to:

·331ci engine starts and runs well. Auto transmission appears to shift correctly and the fluids in both appear to be in good condition.

·I have driven it on short 15 to 20 mile trips and all appeared OK.

·Brake shoes, wheel cylinders and master cylinder were changed several years ago. One note: When driving slow – car does pull to the left slightly – Adjustment is probably necessary.

·In the 15+ years of ownership, I may have driven it 400-500 miles total. Just never had a lot of time to play.

·Electrical System was changed from 6vdc to 12vdc prior to my ownership. Installed a brand new battery from Wal Mart last month and charging system appears fine.

·Headliner had deteriorated so it was pulled down and all the hardware/visors are in the trunk. Rods are still in their place in the ceiling.

·Steering wheel Not Cadillac

·‘CADILLAC’ script trim pieces are in the trunk – They are worth over $200 for the pair - didn’t want them to walk.

·After market side mirrors, gaskets and screws are in the trunk - never installed

·Lamination on several of the windows has failed (see pics), however the 3 piece rear windows are fine.

·Tire tread on all of the tires is great and spare has never hit the ground, but the tires are old and do have some age cracking.

·There is some minor surface rust on several body parts as well as chrome moldings, but the only rust-thru places on the car that I am aware of is near both front fender heels (see pics).

·This vehicle has been licensed and state inspected in Texas for the past 5-6 years when I quit renewing the vanity plate “49CAD” in Dec 2016 (see pic).

·Last year a new high dollar FACET electric fuel pump was installed on the driver’s rear frame near the tank. It is the best fuel supplier that this engine has ever had.
