1939 Cadillac Series 75 Fleetwood 7-Passenger Limo: A True Time Capsule!

Unrestored, Untouched, and Unbelievably Original — Only 38,000 Believed to be Miles!

Step back in time with this magnificent 1939 Cadillac Series 75 Fleetwood 7-passenger sedan. This is not just a car; it's a piece of American history that has been preserved in nearly untouched condition. If you're a collector who appreciates originality, this car is as pure as it gets — a true survivor that's never been fully restored, yet maintained beautifully through the decades.

A Piece of American History:
Reportedly purchased new by A. Harry Moore, a former U.S. Senator and Governor of New Jersey, this Cadillac was likely used for official business and special occasions. It passed through a couple of private collections before being displayed in a museum for over a decade. Most recently, it was acquired by an owner who kept it stored with care, only bringing it out to celebrate his daughter's wedding.

This Fleetwood is 1 of just 412, Series 75 7-passenger formal sedans ever produced, and it's the non-divider window model. The original MSRP in 1939 was a staggering $4,232 — a price only the wealthiest could afford at the time, often used by celebrities, dignitaries and top government officials.

Mostly Original Inside and Out

Exterior: The sleek, elegant factory black finish is believed to be mostly original. It shows some tasteful patina here and there, adding character and authenticity. From five feet away, the car looks stunning, with just the right amount of wear that you'd expect from a well-preserved classic of this age. The chrome throughout the car is in excellent condition — likely original, though the front and rear bumpers may have been re-chromed at some point due to their near-perfect appearance.

Interior: Step inside and you'll be greeted by the mostly original tan interior. The door panels and front carpet have been replaced to factory specs, but everything else is untouched, including the beautiful wood grain and painted trim. The dashboard and original steering wheel are in excellent condition, showcasing the intricate craftsmanship of the era. Even the original jeweled cigarette lighters are still intact, a testament to the car's authenticity.

Mechanical Highlights & Features:

Engine: Powered by a robust 346 cubic inch monoblock L-head V8 paired with a 3-speed manual transmission, this Cadillac starts up smoothly and runs exceptionally well. It's a true pleasure to drive, with that classic Cadillac smoothness that defines pre-war luxury.
Brakes & Tires: Equipped with hydraulic-assist drum brakes, chrome hubcaps, and wide whitewall tires, this car drives just as beautifully as it looks.
Accessories: The car comes with a range of factory options, including trip lights (driving lights), dual side-mounted spares, AM radio, heater, and rear jump seats for extra passenger comfort.

Condition & Notable Details:

Completely rust-free, inside and out — a rarity for a car of this vintage.
All the glass is in excellent condition, clear and free from cracks.
Under the hood is clean and presentable, still showcasing its original lubrication emblem in the door jamb.
The trunk is lined with its original materials, all still in nice, presentable condition.
The original dashboard gauges all function properly, though a few minor electrical items need attention: the radio, wipers, and courtesy lights are currently non-functional but likely require only minor repairs.

A Unique Opportunity for Collectors:
This Cadillac is a rolling conversation piece and a museum-quality artifact that you can actually drive and enjoy. In a world filled with over-restored classics, this one stands out for its unrestored authenticity. Whether you're looking to add to a prestigious collection or simply want a piece of American automotive history, this car offers an unmatched blend of originality and timeless elegance.
