1955 Cadillac Coupe Deville - Beautifully Restored - 3 Owner - 56K Miles - w/Opportunity -For Sale!

1955 Cadillac Coupe Deville - Beautifully Restored - 3 Owner - 56K Original Mile Car - w/Opportunity! For Sale - $24,500 This 1955 Cadillac Coupe DeVille is in beautiful condition, both inside and out. It has been a three-owner car since new, with only 56k original miles. The previous owner has owned the car for the past 31 years. It features a beautiful paint finish in its original color, gorgeous chrome, and what appears to be a mostly original interior. It's hard to find another one as nice as this. Here is the story and history of this car: The third owner purchased this car in Kansas City, MO, in 1992. He then spent nearly $40,000, from what we were told, at a restoration shop making it like new again. After the car was finished in 1994, it was enjoyed for about a year and then parked in 1995 when the owner had some health issues and stopped driving it. It was stored in the owner's very nice garage and was well maintained. Fast forward to May 2024, we acquired the car from a relative of the owner. We bought it as it sat in the garage where it had been stored since 1995. After getting the car home and preparing to start it, we found out the car has a seized motor due to water in the #5 cylinder. Upon discovering this, we decided to stop as we have too many projects ongoing and chose to clean the car up and sell it as it sits. The car needs the engine to be rebuilt or would make an excellent candidate for a restomod with a new late-model drivetrain. Either way, this car has a lot of potential and would be a relatively easy fix. Here is an amazing opportunity for those who are mechanically inclined or looking to get a great deal on a great car. I was planning on putting this car up for sale for $45k after we got it running and driving as I have sold others in similar condition over the years. If you can have the engine rebuilt yourself at a low cost or have it rebuilt by a shop at a slightly higher cost, either way, you are going to have an extremely nice car. It's hard to find a nice one like this in general, so don’t miss out on this baby!
