1941 Cadillac Series 62

• The photos show a two-door coupe in faded matte grey, not the black in the record, parked outdoors on dirt among other old vehicles.
• Rust spots break through on the hood and roof, the rocker below the door is rusted through, and a door edge shows a rust hole.
• Chrome grille and bumpers are shiny in places, and the chrome hood ornament is present, contrasting with the dull bodywork.
• One inner door panel is bare, heavily rusted metal with its trim missing, and loose trim and grille pieces lie inside the car.
• The red front seat is worn and torn at the edge, the rear seat is soiled, and the cabin floor is covered in debris, leaves and stored tyres.
• The dash and steering wheel are present, but the interior is a storage space rather than a usable cabin.
• The trunk compartment is empty and dirty, with loose boards lying in it.
• The engine bay is dusty with leaves and debris around a dirty engine and old hoses.
• No underside photos in the set, so the floors and frame can't be judged.

Money: At $11,000 the money buys a project coupe shell with its chrome and dash present, not a driver — budget for a full restoration including rusted rockers and doors, and whether the engine turns or the floors and frame are sound can't be judged and matters most at this price.
