1940 Cadillac Series 75 Convertible Sedan

This 1940 Cadillac Series 75 Fleetwood Convertible Sedan is a beautifully restored pre-war convertible that is a CCCA Full Classic and ready for some serious cruising! For two reasons, 1940 marked the end of an era for the Cadillac Division of General Motors. First, 1940 was the final year of production for Cadillac's companion brand, LaSalle, that Cadillac's leadership determined was encroaching on and hampering Cadillac sales. Second, the 1940 model year was the final year for Cadillac's famous V-16 engine after a decade long production run. Cadillac's 1940 car lineup was essentially divided into two categories, the final year V-16 Series 90 and the V8-equipped passenger cars including the Sixty Special and the Series 62, 72, and 75.
