Description
1925 Cadillac Type V-63 Phaeton
This 1925 V-63 Phaeton is a rarely-seen model that's been off the road since 1984 patiently awaiting a straightforward restoration. Green with black interior, soft-top, and complete all-weather gear. Not currently running as it has been parked in storage for some time. Complete, solid, and intact with good panel and door fitment. Cadillac introduced the new V-63 in 1924, ushering in a host of refinements to the already superlative engine and chassis. Central to the V-63 was its 90-degree, 314. 5 cubic-inch V-8, now updated with an ingenious counter-balanced, crossplane crankshaft. This revolutionary new design allowed for a significantly lighter flywheel and afforded the V-63 exceptional refinement. Such was its smooth and quiet nature that even Rolls-Royce of America took notice, the firm’s chief engineer stating that “the quartered-crank V8 would make obsolete all long crankshaft engines." The V-63 is a significant model in Cadillac’s rich history, as well as with the development of the V8 engine as a whole. The Type V-63 was a technical marvel of America’s golden age of motoring, and was a tremendous success for Cadillac. Very few of these beautiful and imposing Cadillacs survive today and you likely won't find a more honest example to restore than this one.
