    1959 Cadillac Series 62In 1959, nothing looked like the newly redesigned Cadillacs. In a word they were flamboyant with their large tailfins, dual rear taillights and jewel-like grilles. The Cadillacs, such as this convertible, were loaded with accessories such as power brakes, power antenna, cruise control, air conditioning and much more.

    Power was from Cadillac's own overhead valve V-8 which developed 345 horsepower from its 390 cubic-inches thanks to three two-barrel carburetors.
