1959 Cadillac Coupe Deville Series 62

Have owned this beauty for approximately 20 years.  Found her in a machine shed in a cemetery in LaSalle. IL.  The owner was a trucker named Numerio (wore a weird pony tail on the TOP of his head) and had many. many Caddy's in that building.  Sadly I didn't opt for the convertible!  Drove it right out of the shed.  I love this car.  My email is actually Cadillacbaby59.  I owned this with my exhole.  We also owned a dozen other cars at the same time.  When I opted to leave this man I took the 59 and 62 with me.  Sold the 62 but have kept the 59.  I've viewed it as a 'trophy' of sorts. for putting up with him.  Knowing he'd be jealous that it was mine and not his.  Well. I'm over it now and am realizing the car is going to waste sitting in the garage.  The car deserves a fresh owner.  One who will spruce her up and actually use her.  Did I mention her name?  Her name is FINESSE.  I find it fits the car perfectly. Will be using this money for a down payment on a new house.  I know you really could care less about all of this but it makes me feel better telling you.  This car made me feel special.  I was 'known' for this car.  You couldn't go ANYWHERE without admirers coming up and talking to you.  From the old timers to the youngsters.  Everyone seems to appreciate it's beauty.  Ok. I'm done. now on to the specifics.  
Most is self explanatory by looking at the photos.  Cracked dash. Some hazing on the bottom of the window glass. Cracked backseat passenger window. The proverbial broken horn ring.  The seats are in great condition.  Headliner is stained but not ripped.  Runs and drives.  Needs new brakes (right front caliper froze open). The right front fender and bumper are very slightly misaligned when the accelerator stuck in the below zero weather and it hit the garage (only 1-2 feet away). (The ex stupidly wanted to move it to the back garage in the dead of winter. ugh).   The 390 was rebuilt approximately 15 years ago and hasn't been driven over 500 miles since.  The odometer is broken.  The speedometer goes back and forth til you reach about 50 mph.  The gas gauge seems to run the opposite.  Just part of owning an old car and your fella wasn't a handy guy.  The scratches on the passenger side door is from my wheelchair scraping it while getting in. Comes with the original hubcaps.  The car comes "as is".
I think I will end it here.  If you have questions I will do my best to answer them.  All I know is when riding in this car I felt like the coolest chick on earth.  It's THAT awesome.

I've been told by someone more knowledgeable on Cadillacs than I that my car is not a Deville model. it's specifically a Series 62 Sports Coupe. I am very sorry and didn't mean to mislead anyone. It won't seem to let me change the title.

Also want to include that I have the original carburetor. air cleaner and jar that I believe windshield wiper fluid was in (?).
