The Cadillac Series 70 and its long-wheelbase Series 75 sibling were the brand's premier V8-powered models for over 50 years. Introduced in 1936, they represented the pinnacle of American luxury, often featuring semi-custom bodies by Fleetwood. These cars served as formal sedans and limousines for the wealthy, corporations, and even heads of state, cementing Cadillac's reputation as the 'Standard of the World.'
Collectors prize the pre-war and early post-war models for their imposing style and opulent Fleetwood coachwork. The finned cars of the late 1950s, particularly the 1959 models, are also highly sought after for their iconic design. These vehicles offer a driving experience from an era when size and comfort were the ultimate luxuries, and their history as transport for the elite adds a unique layer of prestige.
Buying Tips
- Body and frame rust are the biggest concerns. Check the frame rails, floor pans, trunk, and the bottom of doors and fenders, as metalwork on a car this large is costly.
- On Fleetwood-bodied limousines, inspect the divider window, jump seats, and rear controls. Sourcing missing or broken interior trim specific to these models is extremely difficult.
- The large Cadillac V8s are robust, but verify the condition of the transmission and check for signs of overheating. Rebuilds are expensive due to the engine size and complexity.
- Verify that all power accessories function correctly. Fixing power windows, seats, and vents can be a time-consuming electrical puzzle.
