49 Cadillac Convertible Street Rod

[@RCSTILE]

Absolutely beautiful interior in this Caddy. The custom steering wheel even looks good.

Glad you liked it!

There's just something special about those old Cadillacs. I'm driving a 95 Concours right now that's almost at the end of it's life.. I'm gonna put it in storage and in 25 years or so do a build with it.

[@ScottieDTV]

+tim d lol...Cool!....Good idea!

[@alanblanes2876]

I agree... that vintage of Concours is very worth preserving!!!

[@FYMASMD]

Yeah right.

elegant, classy, with a touch of street Scottie! Love it!

+Richter Scale Right on....Little git up and go under the hood....

[@marcob4630]

A wonderful oldie, above all with this color. Hope that the rear bumper will soon be fixed. In comparison to our big, dark and clumsy SUVs, this is a piece of art. Elegance and good taste are far gone now !!

Sweet old Caddy! I would love to drive this car. I think the color might be more of a black cherry metallic than a maroon. Nice shoot with plenty of details. Thanks Scottie!

man scottie. steves work is amazing. I would love to be able to do quality work like that. I would really like to see a video how steve makes the patterns for his seats and how he aligns them and makes them sit perfect like factory seats. I would love to see. Especially me being an young auto trimmer myself

[@ScottieDTV]

Sweet sweet car. That paint is perfect and as always Steve's interior work really sets out over the top. Really a timeless car. I do wonder if the ls will ever become dated you know? People put them in just about everything right now but I wonder if they will still be cool 15 years from now.

[@ScottieDTV]

+Austin Pyron I would think so....great motors.....and the SBC is always popular.....Glad you enjoyed the caddy!!

[@Zzrock4]

+ScottieDTV I'm ready to see people swapping the new lt-1!

Does it really needs spats on the rear fenders? looks good as is.

Never seen blue gum walls before, not sure about that. Nice interior, really plush. Air-ated seats huh? Neat. Some stuff missing at the back right, by the exhausts? Good colour. Looks great with the top down.

[@ScottieDTV]

+warlock242 lol...It's to keep the white walls white during shipping.....it washes off....the bumper needs to be installed....the Car wasn't finished yet...

Dream Car. Old outside , new inside..sweet > How much ?

[@ScottieDTV]

Right on...No idea...six figures for sure..

[@dlwatib]

I do like this interior. Most of the time I don't like modern interiors on old hotrods like this because they destroy the character of the car. This one didn't. They kept the original dash and just installed some A/C outlets. They hid the modern radio and the A/C controls. The door panels and cowl panels aren't original but they look like they could be. Door armrests are same style as original. Same with the back seat. In '49 they would not have had bucket seats and center console, but this seems to have been done pretty sensitively and integrates well. Convertible tops from the factory must have stiffeners or something to get the fabric to fold in just the right places. Apparently there wasn't enough left of the original top to determine the true pattern.

[@ScottieDTV]

This one is made to look good.....Glad you liked it!

Cool green tinted windows on a 49 caddie? 1949 marks the genesis of tinted glass on american cars. The plastic window on the soft top is tinted too. Must have been newly made for no soft plastic can last 70 years without deteriorating.
