    I worked at that plant that builds those old beautiful cars Fleetwood B.O.C Detroit Michigan at fort st and spring wells from 1985 to 1987 when they closed the plant. But my Father and my Grandma and grandpa worked before me. So they built all these great classic cars

    Oh my God! Incredible condition considering.Born in 1956.Rode in cars like that as a kid till the mid 1960s.Looking from the outside just reminds me of just how huge these cars were.The unique design and craftsmanship.And of course the old car radio Somehow Papa seemed to always pick up a baseball game as he would drive around.But Mama was the car whisperer.There was no way the car dealership was going to get over on her.Learning about cars from top to bottom growing up in her Native Louisiana.A lot of memories just from a video showing an antique car.Lol.

      In the mid 1970's I worked as a real estate appraiser for a savings & loan's Beverly Hills office. I would occasionally drive by the back end of the very swanky Beverly Hills Hotel where they had one of these parked in an open garage. You could tell it had been sitting for a long time and was past its usefulness to the hotel. It looked to be in really good shape with just a layer of dust to be removed before you could drive off in it. I would have like to have bought the car but didn't have the money or place to keep it at that time. I still think of that car and this video certainly brings back the memories. Thanks!

    A retired country and western singer, regionally a popular act with her band, had something very similar to this but in a fading white over green paint scheme. It had an exhaust leak (possibly up by the manifold) and as it glided around the corner topping the hill on Highland Ave. it made a distinctive 'Phut, Phut, Phut' sound. We kids could hear it coming up the hill. The lady became a customer on my paper route and she was a pen pal of actress Barbara Stanwyck. On occasion the lady asked me to drop a letter for her at the little (tiny) post office in town.

      I was thinking the same. Hoped they’d give it a rinse, little soap and water ( gently of course), quick tidy up and clean out the interior and show us ( not full restoration just clean up the car). It would looked pretty nice. I wonder if there will be a follow up video with this car.

    To transport his family of nine kids my Dad would buy Cadillac limos, second hand after the funeral parlors traded them off. We had a 54 and 57, both would drive 80 90 mph w ac n loaded, effortlessly! The 57 w 390ci n 390 rear axle ratio would burn 15ft of rubber and reach 115 mph in about 3/4 of a mile !

    • @casualobserver485

      Actually I meant 3/8ths of a mile to reach 115mph, point is the caddy were luxury hot rods, no wonder the bootleggers would drop those Caddy motos I'm those lightweight Fords, Chevys n Fords !

    That is in reasonably good condition! Some minor interior/exterior work plus a real good wash and wax. Getting the engine started-not impossible unless it’s seized-but with ALOT of patience, carburetor cleaner and WD40, it will start. Each one of the cylinders will have to be sprayed with WD40 to protect the rings. Let it burn out then drain the oil and add fresh oil.
