It Lives!

I went out today, rolled back the cover, put the battery in, pumped the gas a couple of times and then started up my Caddy. I put the top down and then took it for a quick drive around town which reminded me why I like it so much, driving season is here! Here is a picture in case any of you have forgotten what it looks like:

Tom, it certainly does feel affluent when you drive it. This car and my old 450 SEL are probably the best highway cars I've ever owned, you can cruise at 100+ all day long and the ride is smooth. This one does edge out the Benz but only because the top goes down.

sales brochures,when they were new.

Looks great - Something that big - I presume the license tag is its Zip code.

BTW we live in a house made in 1940 and you couldn't possibly put one of those (or even a car from the 40's) in the garage. why is that?

Wife had a 78 4 door when she was a real estate broker, when she retired I bought her a new Eldorado and it was a beautiful car to drive, I loved that car! Had it for 10 years. :encouragement: PJ

Mine is the last series of Caddy I really like. I do like the fact that you can trace many of Cadillac's current design cues to this series.

Over 100 it becomes around a 1 to 1 ratio.
