So nice.

Great story and photos. You are very lucky to have those cars you grew up with. My dad had a 356 cabriolet that he traded in for a white 190 SL in 62. Gave that to my brother a few years later. That was when Studebaker was selling MB through their dealerships snd my mom traded her '56 Dodge for a Riviera blue Gran Turismo Hawk. The cars had sequential license plates. I got the Hawk. My brother and I got a 1939 Cadillac Imperial Touring sedan and did a mechanical frame up restoration of that when we were in school.

Very cool trip down Memory Lane!

My Dad Was all thumbs and could not fix or work on a car at all. He was not a car guy. I learned everything from neighbors and School.

I never understood why VW did not sell the Type 3 notchback in the U S.

Randy I just found you, I’ve seen you before ?? Was it the LeMon 🍋 with Wayne, Chasing Classic Cars ??

Put on a shirt !

Your brother’s Cayman looks like mine. Black over sand. Nice car.

Fun for the entire family. 👍😳

I saw one bag of 92 for sale on outside of Denver Colorado and I said 7200 72 I said I'll take it he goes no 72,000 I walked away in shame

Happened to me 2 hours ago.

Dang. That patrol unit looked blue. What agency was it? Did you get a warning?

Twins!

Definitely your brother.

Doh!

😂😂😂

Oops.

You did good on this Randy!

This was a well known car, it's not a 43. It's like a mixture of parts.

What a neat looking ride!!!

I absolutely love Honda everything from their small engines to their motorcycles to their cars. They make fantastic products.

What’s funny about that element sticker is the only thing that really kills them is the rear trailing arm mount rusts away and the wheel does fall off.

Looks like a great place.

That Cadillac El Dorado convertible is so hot. I am jealous as all get out.

Beautiful classic car! Mike from Missouri

I wish I could have told you about the button for the trunk in the glove box... I was saying that when he was fumbling with the keys. my dad had olds 98 a 59 and it had that feature. really great car and great video. Thanks

For sale? How much?

Nice find.

What a find!

Glorious automobile !! Those were the days . America was a proud people. Brings a tear to my left eye.

Randy that’s a piece of Art!

Texaco Mechanic 1975, 21 years old. Morris Texaco Oak Ridge Tennessee, I would've kissed for *_this_* car back then! 😊

Are those Rochester Carburetors?

What a dream car!

Electronic trunk lock just gently push the lid and it pulls the deck lid shut.

Your round key fits the trunk.

Don’t forget to connect up the belt for generator.

My 55 Caddy had the battery under the right front fender and was. Long 12volt I had to buy a John Deere battery for it as none of the parts houses had one. lol ran beautifully with just the single carburetor. Series 62 coupe with crank windows.

Cadillac standard of the world in the 1950s. GM the mark of excellence. Americans put America on wheels. 🇺🇸

Unbelievable! 20 year old gas and no fuel system problems! Rebuilt carbs, ready to go! What a find, looks like a survivor that was on the road only months ago. I bet you bought it for a steal!

lol, I was going to jokingly say “ hit the trunk open button in the glove box “ never knew they were available this early in production!! 😂

Doors sound very solid! But again it’s a Cadillac Barittz for crying out loud 😅

Great to see the Caddy, my mother had a 58 blue drop top what a tank .

great video.... ON MUTE!

How many bags of potting soil did it take to make it look like old dirt 🤔

I watch the channel "Cadillac Coach Work". This guy is great in working with classic Cadillacs. This guy would be the right person to bring this Caddillac closer to roadworthiness. And maybe he would be the pefect owner for this car. And he knows his people in the Cadilac community. I suggest you contact him.

I was right, but impatient as I am I did not watch until the end before commenting.

I think those Caddies and other GM luxury cars had remote opening and probaby even remote lock for the trunk. I have no idea if it was electric, hydraulic or simply mechanical.

I like that they put a blanket under the battery. A lot of people don't even bother

Hey Randy you should retitle this Cadillac El Dorado First start will it run and drive?
