1963 Cadillac DeVille Series 62 Convertible

In overall terms 1963 Cadillac was essentially the same as last year. Exterior changes imparted a bolder and longer look. Hoods and deck lids were redesigned. The front fenders projected 4.625" further forward than in 1962 while the tailfins were trimmed down somewhat to provide a lower profile. Body side sculpturing was entirely eliminated. The slightly V-shaped radiator grille was taller and now incorporated outer extensions that swept below the flush-fender dual headlamps. Smaller circular front parking lamps were mounted in those extensions. A total of 143 options including bucket seats with wool, leather or nylon upholstery fabrics and wood veneer facings on dash, doors and seatbacks, set an all-time record for interior appointment choices.

Weighing in at 4,720 lbs, Gr Auto Gallery is proud to present this 1963 Cadillac Series 62 convertible. With a base price back in 1963 of $5,590, this Cadillac is nicely optioned. Powered by what is believed to be it's original 390 6.3 liter V8 engine producing 325 HP. Converting that horsepower to the road is a Hydra-Matic 4 speed automatic transmission. Options include power top, power windows, bucket seats, power steering, power breaks, power drivers seat, auto diming headlights, radio with rear speaker and tilt steering.

Originally this Series 62 was paint code 12-Aspen white. About 10 years ago it was completely disassembled and re-painted in paint code 50-Matador red which is a 63 color. This Caddy is very solid, original and not showing any apparent signs of rust, rot or excessive filler.

Fitted with a fully working new Ivory top this Cadillac is ready to cruise.
