1950 CADILLAC
SERIES 62

Cars in the Cadillac next-step-up line were identified by slightly richer interior appointments and by chrome underscores running the full length of the body at the bottom. Hydra-Matic drive was now standard in this line. The Series 62 sedan incorporated rear ventipanes. Exclusive models in this range were the convertible coupe and Coupe DeVille, both with standard hydraulic window lifts.
