    I really thought you'd like a look at this one. This beauty is a 1949 Cadillac Fleetwood Sedan. It's still powered by the original 331 V8 and is showing only 44,xxx miles on the odometer. This car is extremely well built and the quality really shows. It just has a very solid feel to it, that you don't get from many other cars. I hope you find it interesting, thanks for watching!

    Just beautiful ! How many car designs have there been over the years where every single model looks so handsome ; the sedan , the fastback , the convertible ? These '48 - '49 Caddies give such an impression of style and quality .Love to see you take it out on the road as well .

    Lovely looking Cadillac Fleetwood. I've always loved these old-school GM cars.

    This car reminds me of the car that my elderly neighbor had when I was in high school.
    He had a 1949 Buick Roadmaster that was built on the same platform as this Fleetwood. I was his official driver and caregiver of the Roadmaster. He and his wife would have me drive them to their camp miles away. What a treat for me at the time.

      Glad it brought back some good memories. Those Buick's are great cars too. Thanks for watching Jim.

      If I had money to burn, I'd buy it and air condition it. Jabba the Hut that I am, I have gotten absolutely addicted to A/C. I don't know how we got along without it.
      Before you think I'm some spoiled youngster, I'm 51 years old, and I take meds. I've driven cars without A/C in the past, and remember, if I could help it, do as much of my driving at night that I could.

    beautiful car. I love my '58, but they were not built nearly as well as the '49-'56. 1949 was first year for the state of the art OHV 331ci Cad V8...really set the standard for domestic engines. Cadillac kept this engine thru the 1963 model year, although by then it was a 390. Cad's were known by their body numbers...the Fleetwood was series 60, the lower end models were series 62, and the higher end models series 75...commercial chassis were series 86. There were other series over the years, but these are the main ones, esp during the '50's. There was no Eldorado in '49...came out in '53, and was a subseries to the series 62.
    I would love to have this '49...

    What a beautiful old Caddy. I can tell from your excitement it is as nice in person as it looks on video. That's not a rear seat, it's a sofa! I have seen a lot less car for a lot more money. Would like to just take a ride in it, let alone drive it.

    • @RamblinAround
      @RamblinAround  9 років тому +1

    I really like this car! The only bone I have to pick on, are the fender skirts. I have never really been a fan of those, in general, because I think that they hide the rear wheels, and I think any car that has white walls on them shouldn't hide their looks lolol. Maybe that's just me... Great car though!

    Now thats something you don't see every day! Whats the "Series 60" part of the name mean, is that just like gen code?

    • @RamblinAround
      @RamblinAround  9 років тому

      Yeah Murray, Series 60 is just sort of a model designation. It's all a little confusing, but they basically tell you if you're getting the smaller, entry level model or the big, full-size model. Then the highest model is actually the Eldorado I believe.
