Description

Rare Opportunity: 1936 Cadillac LaSalle Coupé (Series 50) – Immaculate Condition & Ready to Drive

For sale is an absolute jewel of American pre-war automotive history: A stunning 1936 Cadillac LaSalle Series 50 Coupé, powered by a smooth-running straight-eight engine.

History & Condition

I personally imported this vehicle from the USA 6 years ago. While still in the States, the car underwent a highly extensive frame-off restoration and repaint – the bodywork and paint quality speak for themselves. To perfectly protect this pristine condition, the car received a complete professional detailing and a premium ceramic coating just last year.

After arriving in Germany, the coupé was perfected with meticulous attention to detail and no expense spared:

  • Interior: The entire interior was completely reupholstered from the ground up here in Germany, using the authentic, original fabric. An absolute dream for any enthusiast.
  • Technical Upgrade: The only non-original modification is a retrofitted electric fuel pump. This provides modern reliability and prevents the typical starting issues after longer periods of sitting.
  • Comfort Extra: A period-correct heater was installed for comfortable driving on cooler days.

Maintenance & Current Status

Under my ownership, the LaSalle has been serviced and maintained exclusively by a specialized classic car workshop. There is absolutely no maintenance backlog.

  • Fresh Service: A comprehensive service was performed just this past June, during which all oils and fluids were changed.
  • New Inspection (TÜV): The German main inspection (TÜV) was passed once again in June. The car, of course, comes with German registration and historic ("H") license plates.

Conclusion

This LaSalle is in excellent, highly authentic condition, both visually and mechanically. It starts reliably, runs silky smooth, and turns heads at every car show or cruise. Just get in, drive away, and enjoy the 1930s "Streamline Moderne" era in the highly sought-after "3-Window Coupe" body style.
