The seller offers for sale a 1960 Cadillac Coupe Cabrio with automatic transmission and a 6.4-litre V8 petrol engine. This impressive classic has been in the Netherlands since 1996 and with the current owner for 18 years. Used mainly for leisure and wedding events, the car has been well maintained and remains in good condition. The paint has received partial resprays before 1996 but still presents well, showing minor marks consistent with age. The interior was renewed last year, featuring clean upholstery and bright chrome trim. The dashboard has a small crack, and the convertible top shows a minor hole and some discoloration, but a brand-new top is included in the sale. The car starts easily, runs smoothly without smoke or unusual noises, and the gearbox shifts properly. A small amount of pitting is visible on the rear bumper, but overall, it’s a well-preserved and elegant American cruiser.
The 1960 Cadillac embodies the height of post-war American automotive style—long, low, and lavish. With its iconic tailfins, sweeping lines, and V8 engine, it was a symbol of luxury and success. The Coupe Cabrio offered open-air driving with the same grandeur as Cadillac’s top models, making it one of the most desirable classic convertibles from the era. Today, it remains a sought-after collector’s car, admired for its presence, craftsmanship, and effortless performance.

However, potential buyers must independently satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of the description.

It is a bidder’s responsibility to assure themselves of the colour and condition of a vehicle, including its interior and the existence of any remedial bodywork or paintwork, before committing to bid or buy.
