Cancer Car Program

~Joseph Hearn~ Author  It is only February and we have our second unique car donation for 2014. This month a 1940 Cadillac Series 62 was donated to the ASPCA.This sleek looking automobile was manufactured by General Motors and assembled in the car capital of the world, Detroit, Michigan. The fisher-bodied Cadillac Series 62 replaced the earlier 61 model and features a predominant grill, which later became synonymous with the Cadillac brand.Series 62’s are some of the most well known vehicles that Cadillac has ever produced, and they tend to stand out in the minds of many Cadillac fans. As you can see in the pictures below, the Series 62 features a low sleek “torpedo” style C-body with chrome window reveals, slant at the windshield and a curved rear window.

This timeless beauty remained in production through 1964 being renamed the Series 6200 and subsequently the Cadillac Calais.

Initial offerings were comprised of a coupe, touring sedan, convertible coupe, and convertible sedan on a 129-inch wheelbase. Prices ranged from $1,685 to $2,195. As in later years, the 62 garnered the most sales by far of any 1940 Cadillac line. The division’s 1940 V-8 retained monoblock construction (unitized block and crankcase), three main bearings with counterweights, and two-barrel downdraft carb. Though heavy, it was reliable and exceptionally smooth.

The Series 62 is still a popular feature in pop culture today.A pink 1959 Cadillac Series 62 convertible as well as a 1963 model of the same car were both featured in the 1980 cult film “Rock ‘n’ Roll High School” being mentioned as the “ Ramone mobile” by a fan in the film. Most recently the 1963 model coupe convertible was mentioned in Grammy award winners,  Macklemore and Ryan Lewis’s song “white walls”This car needs some love and attention in order to bring it back to its glory days, but it is a whole complete vehicle and once finished it will definitely not go unnoticed.This car was donated to help support ASPCA’s mission “to provide effective means for the prevention of cruelty to animals throughout theUnited States”.Whoever buys this Cadillac 62 will be supporting a remarkable charity while also bringing this unique car back to its glory days.

Please take a look and comment to share useful context about the 1940 Cadillac Series 62.
