trimacar Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Wow and then some. Beautiful car. The blind rear quarters would make the rear compartment so isolated, as I'm sure was intended. Also, the seat adjustment for the rear cushion is not a common thing. I've seen it in Pierce Arrow sedans, but seldom elsewhere. I'm sure its common in other cars too, just not ones I'm familiar with. The adjustable rear seats are connected to the backrest, so moving it one way or the other means backrests move too. Fabulous car, another one which makes me wish I'd bought Microsoft stock early on. 7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R W Burgess Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Just brousing and noticed this Caddy that interested me. I tell my wife all the time that I'd like to sell a bunch of my old normal type antique cars and buy just one very nice CCCA car????? Wait, it looks like I may have to sell all of my cars, plus my house and the cash money I have hidden from my wife in a jar in the back yard. Darn!

I wonder if the seat moves forward, and the backrest pivots, which would adjust the angle of the seat back? The armrest obviously does not move forward, and the marks on the side panel looks like the seat only moves forward about 6 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The backrests were hinged at the top, connected at bottom behind cushion with a 2 inch crosswise bar (down from bottom of backrest) into a crosswise metal piece with slot (from back of cushion) on each side, so moving cushion forward changes backrest angle as you state. Note that armrest, while stationary, is designed to allow side of backrest to move forward up to a point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vintagerodshop Posted September 24 Author Share Posted September 24 The arm rest is stationary. The seat back does recline as the seat base is moved forward. The car is still for sale. I just had it out two months ago at a charitable fundraiser car show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
