1951 CADILLAC COUPE DEVILLE ***FOR SALE***

For 1951 there was a new combination grille and impact guards, a wider, more massive "V" set lower on the hood, chrome headlight rims, a wider, lower interior rear-view mirror, slim rear quarter panels to minimize blind spots, an inverted "U"-shaped instrument panel with the retro look of the 1948 horseshoe style, a new two-spoke steering wheel, striated, bright metal instrument panel insert which was carried through to the front doors the extensions housed the inner door handles and the vent pane winders; in cars with hydraulically operated windows, these side panels also housed the power window switches. As in 1950, doors released from the outside by depressing a button on otherwise stationary door handles, and the hollow trunk "V" served as a handle to raise the trunk lid; trunk capacity was increased from 1950 and there were large rear ventipanes for increased, all-round vision.
The easiest way to identify the 1951 models is by the new, ornamental "egg-crate" grille extensions below the headlights.
Trunk Is Full Of Additional Spare Parts Including Service Manuals.

I think I like this hardtop more than the 51 Chevy.

MY 1951 Coupe Deville has a wonder bar radio stock, power windows, 2 tone all leather interior, with "Coupe Deville" script badges at the rear passenger window on top of the large area or exterior chrome, no doubt other points of interest are missing that would indicate that it is not a true 1951 cadillac coupe deville, still is a beautiful car
