PS. my mother looked at the photo and agrees. It looks like a Lasalle or Cord to her. and side vents on the engine hood are common. Unfortunately her Dad struck his Cool pose in front of any nameplate or badging. |
It is a 1940 cadillac series 62. I love old black and white pics like this.

That is correct. My Dad (he is 74) said it is a 1940 Caddy Coupe and he knows his cars.

the caddy.......
Ohhhhhh that is Sweet ! :cool: My G/F is going to freak out when I tell her that. Thanks.
A funny story about that car and Tonda's future parents...... While they were dating her future Mom ( Vernola ) loved that car that Norris had at the time.....while waiting on him one evening; he showed up in a different car. He had traded for a four door something that was kinda beat up. Her Mom looked at him and the car and said..." just a minute".... and came back out wearing jeans. She had, been all dolled up until the 4-door showed up. No matter what generation, .........Girls Love cars :cool: Her dad died in a car wreck in 1985. Wish I couldv'e met him. |

40 caddy
These kind of cars just don't get made anymore. They were rolling works of Art...

Tonda's Mom
........Tonda found this photo of her Mom when her parents
were still dating. She looks pretty sassy in this one . It is a better shot of the Caddy also. I am working on the photo with her Dad in it that was taken the same day that this one was. It has a lot of glare in it and I'm trying to edit it out. http://i829.photobucket.com/albums/z...ssyJoey001.jpg |
TOO COOL! :) funny thing is, i was telling my dad about this thread and how it was decided the car was a cadilac series 62 coupe and he goes " a series 62 coupe? i knew where there was one in a lilac bush! coulda had if for free but it was pretty rough."
