1956 Cadillac Series 62 Coupe de Ville

Vehicle Description 1956 Cadillac Series 62 Zoom Classic Cars presents this all original 1956 Cadillac Coupe Deville Series 62. Original Arizona Survivor Car. Few automobiles symbolize the optimism, luxury, and styling excess of 1950s America quite like the 1956 Cadillac Coupe DeVille. As one of Cadillac\'s most prestigious and recognizable models, the Coupe DeVille represented the pinnacle of General Motors design and engineering, featuring dramatic tailfins, gleaming chrome, and the pillarless hardtop styling that would define the era. Offered here is an exceptionally original, three-owner Arizona Cadillac Series 62 Coupe DeVille. The current owner acquired the car in 1997 and has driven it sparingly, adding only approximately 1,000 miles during nearly three decades of ownership. Always garage-kept, this Cadillac remains a highly original survivor that can be enjoyed today as a driver-quality classic or taken to the next level through cosmetic refurbishment or full restoration. Power comes from its original 365 cubic-inch V8 producing 285 horsepower, paired with Cadillac\'s renowned 4-speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission. The only notable mechanical modification is the addition of an electric fuel pump in place of the original mechanical unit. Recently tuned in 2026, the car starts reliably, runs exceptionally well, and remains mechanically sound. Finished in its original Goddess Gold paint, the body appears remarkably solid with very good panel fit throughout. Minor dents, scrapes, and areas of surface rust are present, consistent with an unrestored vehicle of this age. All exterior trim, chrome, and badging remain intact and present exceptionally well. Distinctive styling features include Cadillac\'s refreshed gold-finished grille, prominent front bumper guards (\"Dagmars\"), integrated backup lights, and the graceful tailfin treatment that helped establish Cadillac as America\'s luxury leader. The spacious interior is trimmed in white leather and cloth and retains many original features. Standard luxury equipment includes power steering, power brakes, power windows, power seat, and a fold-down rear armrest. The driver\'s seat upholstery requires replacement, while the remainder of the interior presents as an excellent candidate for preservation or refurbishment. Underneath, the Cadillac retains its robust X-frame chassis and rides on a 129-inch wheelbase, delivering the smooth, effortless ride for which these cars are famous. The undercarriage is clean overall with typical surface rust. The massive trunk compartment houses the spare tire and provides abundant storage. The car rides on older wide whitewall tires mounted on steel wheels with factory Cadillac wheel covers in very good condition.
