I actually like the Cady in the backround better. My father had one just like it A 54 I guess.

Love to have a big old fat Caddy to cruise around in. We're friends with a woman in NY who has a white on white 85 that she had totally mechanically redone and takes it out of the garage once a month for a run. Keeps it in memory of her late husband. She'd love me to buy it buy no place for me to store it.

I had a 1980 Caddy coupe ... had about 185,000 miles on it when I gave it to our daughter ... she was putting on about 75 miles a day for work so the gas was killing her pocketbook ... she traded it in for a Toyota - of all things - it had 204,000 miles on it ... I used to see it being driven by an 'older' woman after that ... I knew it was the same car by the college sticker on the rear window and the USA medallion on the front grill ...
When all the fuss was being made about the "better" Japanese cars, we had 4 GM cars in the family with over 600,000 total miles ... rocker

At 16, I got a 1968 mustang fastback 289 white with 2-tone blue interior. Needed some bodywork, so my dad arranged a friend of his to paint it. It came home bright baby blue. He drove it for a year until I could get a license at 17 (in NJ). I had my license 2 days and totaled it. Driving a girl around and not watching the road......I will have one again..Imagine these baby blue....
