Description
La Salle Series 52 Special Coupe, produced from 1940, was one of the last models to carry the La Salle name. The La Salle brand was introduced by General Motors as a more affordable alternative to Cadillac, targeting customers seeking luxury and style at a lower price. The Series 52 model was built on the same platform as the Cadillac Series 61 and featured smooth body lines, elegant curves, and robust technical elements. Under the hood was a V8 engine with a capacity of 5, 277 cc, delivering excellent performance and a smooth ride. Its manual transmission offered precise control over the driving experience. This car was a symbol of luxury and the progress of the American automotive industry on the eve of World War II.
The specific La Salle Series 52 Special Coupe in question was purchased in the USA in 2019 and immediately underwent basic servicing. Its paintwork was completed in the United States, and no changes were needed after its arrival in the Czech Republic. In 2020, the car participated in the prestigious 1000 Miles of Czechoslovakia race, where it won in its category. After the race, a complete engine overhaul was carried out, and the car has since covered only around 1, 000 kilometers. This La Salle is in excellent condition, representing a vehicle that not only captivates with its elegant design but also excels in performance and reliability on the road.
