1930s elegance abounds with this fine 1931 Cadillac 355A Convertible Coupe. This CCCA Premier

Award-winning example has been fully restored to its original colors of

Viceroy Maroon over black

fenders and chassis, as indicated

on the original build sheet. It is

finished to a high standard and remains in excellent condition

today. It is a lovely machine with

fine quality paintwork and detailing. Of the eleven standard body styles available, the Convertible Coupe

by Fleetwood ranks among the

most desirable on the 355 chassis. Its sporting, elegant appearance

recalls carefree playboys enjoying the trappings of their wealth as the

roaring twenties came to a close. The convertible coupe combined the

style and open air experience of

the roadster, but with the

additional comfort provided by

roll up side windows and a more substantial folding roof and more luxurious trim. As with most

355-series Cadillacs, our example

is well-equipped with dual

sidemount spares topped with

Cadillac mirrors, a mesh radiator

stone guard, Goddess mascot

and a pair of Senior Trippe Light driving lamps. While the

restoration is approaching two decades old, the exterior

cosmetics remain very strong,

and this example presents very

well indeed.
