How many 1942 7533s left?

[Matt Bellue]

Does anybody know how many 1942 Cadillac 7533s are estimated to still be in existence?

Thanks,
Matt

I couldnt say anything more than a guess. 1942 models, in general, were very very limited production. Series 75 cars were even less. 7533s were even fewer still. If it were late January, 1942, there would still only be 430 of those. My guess for a number left in good running condition is somewhere less than 50... maybe even less than 20. If you count all the junkyard instances and 40-years-in-a -field cars (anything that still has a frame/engine number), you might reach 100.

We have a 1942 7533F here in australia which was used by Lord Louie Mountbatten during WW2.He was of course cousin to Queen Elizabeth. It is under restoration at the moment.
