1953 Cadillac DeVille Series 62 Coupe

• Teal-blue paint with a white roof looks glossy and even across the full walk-around set.
• Chrome bumpers, grille and Dagmars shine brightly, with no visible pitting in the close-ups.
• Wide-whitewall tires and full wheel covers with red Cadillac crests look fresh at all four corners.
• The two-tone blue interior shows clean pleated bench seats front and rear, with no visible splits.
• Door panels, dash and the under-dash air-conditioning vents all present tidy and complete.
• No engine-bay photos are in the set, so the engine and its condition can't be judged.
• No trunk or underside photos are in the set, so the trunk floor, frame and floors can't be judged.
• No odometer close-up is in the set, so the mileage can't be verified from the photos.

Money: at $49,979 the money buys a sharp, well-photographed coupe on its visible paint, chrome and interior, but budget for a mechanical inspection — the engine bay, underside and true mileage are exactly what the photos don't show.
