This 1941 Cadillac Series 61 coupe was acquired by the seller’s father in 1958, and it has remained with the family since. A refurbishment during current ownership included body repair, refinishing the two-tone exterior, a refresh of the two-tone interior, and installation of a later-model 500ci V8 paired with an automatic transmission. Equipment includes a 12-volt electrical system and an aftermarket CD player and speakers.
The seller states that bodywork was performed on the front end including replacement of the fenders and rocker panels, and the exterior was subsequently refinished in two-tone blue and silver. Features include a two-piece windshield, chrome bumpers, and a hood emblem.
The steel wheels are finished in blue and wear Dimension IV whitewall tires. Cadillac-branded covers are fitted on the left side, and a pair of wire wheel covers are mounted on the right side. Additional wheel covers and trim rings are included in the sale.
The interior is trimmed in gray upholstery with matching material on the door panels, and blue carpeting lines the floors. An AM radio is fitted in the dashboard, while a Panasonic CD player is mounted below the dashboard and linked to rear-mounted Pioneer speakers. The seller notes that the window cranks hit the chrome trim on the door when operated, and an air-conditioning system is fitted but the ducts and vents are uninstalled. A spare radio and heater are included in the sale, and the seller also notes that the replacement headliner material is stained.
The five-digit odometer shows approximately 7k miles, and the seller states they have driven the car approximately 20k miles. True mileage is unknown.
The 500ci V8 is paired with an automatic transmission, both of which are said to have been sourced from a 1976 Cadillac, and a differential sourced from a 1950s-era Cadillac is fitted out back. The car was most recently serviced in February 2021 with a battery cable replacement.
