*1941 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible*The term âCustom Carâ can mean lots of different things. To some, a set of wheels and an exhaust makes their car custom, whereas for others, it doesnât qualify unless every aspect of the car from bumper to bumper has been modified and perfected. For traditional hot rodders Woodroe Parker and John DâAgostino, itâs the latter. DâAgostino has been an idea-man and promoter behind hundreds of hot rods since the 1960s which have won pretty much every award in the rodding world. Parker has a background in art and design, as well as a shared appreciation for California-style car builds. This â41 Cadillac combines their shared passions and was built as a tribute to Hollywood icons Clarke Gable and Carole Lombard, in celebration of their patriotism during World War II. The design was then brought to life by Oz Welch of Oz Kustoms - another highly respected name in the custom car scene and 2024 Builder of the Year award winner.Â Taking over seven years to build, this Cadillac â known by its nickname âGable IIâ â started life as a 1941 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible, which was a California car from new. To start, the interior cabin area was shortened by 14 inches, giving the rear section a smoother shape and adding a waterfall between the rear bucket seats. The front header and glass from a 1947 Cadillac Convertible were installed, and up front, the hood was re-shaped to fit the grille and bumper from a â47, while the fenders were extensively modified to fit 1953 Eldorado headlight assemblies. In total, more than 500 inches of welding were carried out just in front of the windshield to ensure perfect panel gaps and overall fitment. The rear fender skirts on the car have been âcrownedâ adding an extra dimension to the shape, and their side profile was completely reshaped to follow the gorgeous flowing lines of the rear quarter panels; they were then countersunk into the body for a smooth fitment.Â The rear of the car also utilizes pieces from a 1947 Cadillac including the bumper, which was reshaped to fit the different bodylines and make room for the 1953 Kaiser license plate frame and âbulletâ exhaust outlets. Around the vehicle, all panels were welded, with no seam sealer used to make everything flow perfectly, and the car was then painted in House of Kolor Candy Pearl Root Beer which was applied with a flawless finish. The taillamps were shaved, with custom lenses integrated into the rear bumper overriders. A custom Carson convertible top was fabricated, which was required given the significantly chopped roofline, which necessitated all new glass and a roadster-style windshield up front. The car sits on a set of True-Spoke Custom Supreme wheels from American Steel with 48-spoke centers, wrapped in proper wide whites.Â On the inside, the original interior was restored to a concours level, with some very notable additions. The seats are all wrapped in Grey-Mauve mohair, which was installed by Divine Customs Auto Upholstery in Concord, CA. The front bench seat remains how it would have come from the factory, but given the reshaped cabin, the rear seats are bespoke with two buckets and a waterfall (painted in the exterior color) coming down and culminating in a crystal ash tray between the seats. The dashboard was removed and all of the original gauges were rebuilt. While out of the car, the dashboard was hydro-dipped for a wood grain effect before it was all reassembled. To the left of the steering column is a pack of three vintage-look gauges to keep tabs on the oil pressure, water temperature and fuel, while to the right, a Vintage Air A/C system has been fitted. In the glove compartment sits a modern Pioneer head unit along with controls for the custom Air-Ride suspension. A pair of Appleton 112-Series spotlights with pearlescent handles finish off the interior - one of the most popular modifications of the period, these spotlights look as though they could have been installed when the car was brand new.Â Underneath the car, the original frame has been modified to accept a 1975 Camaro front clip with disc brakes, and the rear has been fitted with the Camaroâs 10-bolt rear end with a 3.50 Posi-Traction differential. Numerous reinforcements were made to the chassis, and the rear frame has been C-notched to allow the custom air suspension to drop the car to the ground. Powering the Cadillac is a new Chevrolet 350ci V8 crate motor with an Edelbrock carb on top that produces 300 horsepower. Power is then sent through a new TH350 automatic gearbox to the rear wheels.Â Following the carâs completion in 2024, it made its debut at the Grand National Roadster Show, after which it was displayed at the 2024 Rodeo Drive Concours dâElegance where it took home the âRodeo Drive Award: Most Stylish.âÂ  This incredible kustom is ready to show and will undoubtedly garner fans wherever it goes.Â Gable II is a true showstopper and would be the crown jewel of any collection. The uncompromising vision that led to this car resulted in a vehicle that, although extensively customized, looks like it should have been how the car left the factory. No half measures were taken and it is the kind of car that can only come from a team with extensive knowledge of coachbuilding, customization and classic American cars. With numerous famous hot rodding names attached to the car, this 1941 Cadillac Series 62 is an impossible car to replicate and a fitting tribute to two of classic Hollywoodâs great personalities.Â Â For more information on this 1941 Cadillac Series 62 Custom or any of our 100+ cars always in stock, contact one of our friendly and knowledgeable sales consultants orÂ  stop by our Bellevue, WA Park Place Ltd campus - where we have over 40,000 sq ft of indoor showrooms filled with the finest cars.

RM Sothebys

To Be OFFERED AT AUCTION WITHOUT RESERVE at RM Sothebys' Monterey event, 15 - 16 August 2025. rnOffered Without Reserve | $80,000 - $100,000 USD rnrnDelivered via Cadillac's Tank Plant in Cleveland, remaining in Ohio for 40 yearsrnLong-term ownership by noted entrepreneur and collector John StaluppirnPresents in factory-correct Apollo Gold over Light Green and White leatherrnHouses a 331-cu.-in. V-8 paired with a four-speed Hydramatic automatic gearboxrn rnrnOne of 6,310 examples of the Series 62 Convertible built in 1954, chassis number *number in the description*58 offered here was originally freighted to Cadillac's Tank Plant in Cleveland, Ohio, per the accompanying copy of the factory build sheet. Reportedly sold new via Swisher Cadillac of Mansfield, the car was first owned by the proprietor of a local taxi company. Accordingly, they specified Apollo Gold paintwork-complemented by Light Green and White leather upholstery plus a Black cabriolet top-to smartly match the livery of the cabs in their fleet. The car was also configured with E-Z Eye Glass, a heater, and a radio. rnrnThe Cadillac remained in the Ohioan city across its next four owners before being acquired by noted collector John Staluppi, founder of the Atlantic Auto Group, in 1994 to join his 150-strong stable of automobiles. In keeping with Brooklyn-born Mr. Staluppi's high standards, this Series 62 Convertible was submitted for a meticulous restoration that spanned a staggering 15 years and required approximately 6,000 hours of labor. The body-off rebuild commenced in 2001, with 650 hours alone being dedicated to overhauling the interior, the trunk, and the folding top. At this time, the Cadillac was fitted with its current Green fabric roof. Not only does this more neatly tie in with the cabin trim, but, authentically, it was one of five color choices offered to customers in 1954. rnrnPrior to completion in 2016, the 331-cubic-inch V-8 engine (which was rated by Cadillac at 230 brake horsepower) and four-speed Hydramatic automatic gearbox were also rebuilt. Other notable upgrades include the powder-coated seat frames, the replacing of the door and trunk cardboard backing with aluminum, the fitment of new and correctly scripted glass, plus the installation of a stainless-steel exhaust system. Chassis *number in the description*58 was then purchased by a new owner in January 2019 and, following a stint in Montana, was acquired by the consignor in March 2024.rnrnBoasting its factory-correct paint and interior color combination, this Series 62 Convertible is likely to be just as at ease with impressing discerning crowds at displays and events as it is touring in comfort and considerable style.
