Dive into the world of classic cars with the 1949 Oldsmobile Holiday 98 Sports Coupe, a car so ahead of its time, it probably considered itself a time traveler. With a cutting-edge Hydramatic automatic transmission and the powerful “Rocket 88” engine, it was the automotive equivalent of a rocket ship. And let’s not forget the “Autronic Eye” that dimmed high beams automatically—because who needs to manually do anything nowadays? Out of nearly 93,478 Oldsmobiles, only 3,006 were “Holiday” models, making it the exclusive club everyone wanted to join.

The Cadillac Series 62, a classic symbol of automotive luxury, rolled off production lines from 1940 to 1964, with a brief identity crisis in 1959 when it became the “6200” series. The 1951 Coupe De Ville flaunted its flair with a chrome overdose—think full-length chromed rocker panels and a fancy rear roof pillar script. Under the hood, a 331 CID V8 engine paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission powered this beauty, offering the exhilarating fuel economy of 12 miles per gallon at a leisurely 45 mph.

Step right up, folks, and feast your eyes on the 1952 Cadillac Series 62—a vintage beauty boasting a 4.6 Cadillac North Star V.8 engine and a smooth 3-speed automatic transmission. It’s the kind of car that makes you want to don a fedora and drive with the windows down. Thanks to our pals at Gateway Classic Cars, we’ve got a gallery of images that will make any car enthusiast’s heart race faster than this Cadillac on the open road. Prepare to be captivated by this classic marvel!
