Cadillac
Cadillac has long been a symbol of luxury, innovation, and American style, and a favorite among customizers. In the 1940s and 1950s, Cadillac’s long, low bodies, bold grilles, and powerful V8 engines made them ideal candidates for mild and full customs. Models like the 1949 Series 62 fastback and the 1950–1959 coupes and convertibles were especially popular, often seen with shaved trim, lowered stances, and custom paint jobs. Cadillac's iconic tailfins and bullet taillights became defining features of the custom era. Whether subtly dressed or radically restyled, a customized Cadillac always commanded attention.
