1959 Cadillac Series 62 For Sale by Owner in Jacksonville, FL

This is a numbers matching, factory black (10) with black and white interior (30), EZ eye glass (E), and Heater (H) optioned car.
As time went on, we decided to take the next steps in refreshing the restoration as well as making some upgrades so we could enjoy the car well into the future.  As we were both working crazy hours, we found a somewhat local classic car shop that we contracted to repaint the car as well as correct the interior. In addition, we were going to upgrade the front brakes to disc (purchased), add a larger front sway bar (purchased), and install a Vintage Air Conditioning System.
Unfortunately, part way into the project, the shop owners moved and subsequently went out of business. Our car (cars actually, they had our 4 door for paint also), as well as many other customer cars, were left in a building for sale. We had to get a court order to break in and get the car with the aid of a sheriff. We got our car, all the components for it (less its original radiator and new battery box), sued the owners, and got our deposit back (with interest), less the cost of disassembling the car.
This is where we are today, a VERY SOLID Series 62 Coupe that has been prepared for its’ better restoration. As the car is apart, you get to see all aspects of it. How solid the car is and how little rust it has is clearly evident. This car is not full of filler or Bondo.My wife and I have happily owned the car since 2012. We purchased it out of Utah as an older restoration (incorrect interior cloth). The lack of rust, quality of the chrome, overall condition, and sharp looks have made it a very special car for us. We paid full value for the car, $30,000 before transport and taxes. It was going to be a keeper.
