Rare US Classic Car



This is 1948 Cadillac Series 62 Saoutchik
 "3-position drophead", which is also drop-dead gorgeous...

"Some of the most flamboyant, and expensive coachwork 
ever to come out of France was created, or caused to be
, by expatriate russian cabinet maker Jacques Saoutchik.
 In 1948, noted New York city furrier
 Louis Ritter commissioned Saoutchik to execute 
a special convertible on a Cadillac chassis. The car was
 completed in time to be displayed
at the Paris salon of 1949."
