There are some obvious paint and chrome issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleach Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Someone incorrectly tried to duplicate a standard 62 series interior pattern. A CDV has narrow 2-1/2" pleats. A CDV also has a large "V" pattern on the door panels. A CDV would also have "Coupe de Ville" emblems on the sides of the front fenders. It don't believe it to be a CDV, just a simpler 62 series.I compared your photos to the photos in my book "Cadillac - Guide to 1950 through 1959 Motor Cars" which has photos, details and specs for all Cadillacs of that decade.
