So many years ago a friend of mine built a bagged 66 Cadillac and asked me to drive it somewhere , can't remember why or where, but I fell in love. I have looked different ones for years but never worked out for various reasons. Fast forward to today, the ram sold a week or so and I was replaced with a 15 Silverado LTZ to take over DD duties but nothing really more.

So this particular Caddy I have been looking at for at least 3 years, a buddy built it, and never worked out for one reason or another but finally came to terms.

Silverado. Added black emblems, Lund tonneau, and weather techs

67 Cadillac. Bagged, recently repainted, and ****** giver. Pics from previous owner as the car is still on its way to me.

So immediate plans are to get the heat working then start looking into the A/C. Future plans to redo the interior in a dark brown and tan, and to look into either over hauling the factory motor or LS swapping.

More than you can afford, pal. Cadillac.

No really, I hit a decent deal on it.

I love my lifted trucks but having an expensive toy sitting in the garage while driving older vehicles was getting old, I think this will suit me better.
