Doug - photo in the middle. Altho' it's a different model, I'll always associate the early 1950s Cadillacs with President Eisenhower.

I always associate 50s Caddys with my great grandma. She owned a 58, I believe, and even though she died when I was little I remember seeing the car on several occasions as a kid.

For me it was getting to steer a mid to late fifties coupe de ville, sitting on my godfathers lap in a parking lot.
 
Cool cars and by now the Honda might be one of the rarest cars in the lineup.
 
I talked to the owner the time before when I stopped there.
Lots more cool stuff behind the building.
He told me that he bought the Cadillac (1956) up North.Said
he had problems with the tow vehicle & ended up driving the Caddy
all the way back,& that it drove well.
I took a couple more pictures,but they didn't take for some reason.
 
A bit of trivia ... who can identify the car in the upper right of my photo in post #2?

Hint: Brad and Joan Stevens drove one. :angel3:

There used to be a purple Henry J that drove around Lawton, I haven't seen it in years though.
