Could be identified as Series 75 Stretched Limousine? |

1947-49 Cadillac Series 75 .It has been stretched to probably accomodate a further 3 passengers from the 9 of the Business style to 12 |

It could be an "airport limnousine" by Hess & Eisenhardt. They made a few in 1947. www.car-nection.com/yann/Dbas_ima/47h&ebus.jpg |

Hmmmm - this is an airport limousine for sure, but definitely not the Hess & Eisenhardt Airline Coach, which was made from 1946 through 1948 in small numbers. The shape of the passenger windows, sills, rear end and roof rails look very different from every H&E airliner I've seen so far. Eureka came into my mind first, but finally I believe this must be a conversion by Armbruster & Company. |

Perhaps this vehicle did NOT begin life as a "Series 75" sedan or limousine (absence of running boards). In any case it is an impressive car to haul a band around from gig to gig. Today, they favour converted, live-aboard R/Vs ! |

I wonder if this might be a stretched version of the Fleetwood Business Sedan (nine passenger)- Model 7523-L. Cadillac built about 130 of them each year. -- Last edit: 2010-12-21 10:26:48 |
