Hey your car is a Calais Sedan, not a Sedan de Ville. The Calais was the entry level Cadillac back in the day. The Sedan de Ville had large windowsill moldings and a very plus interior with standard power windows and such.
De vraies voitures .les hommes qui les ont conduites sont très chanceux. Même la plus sophistiqués des voitures de nos jours ne leur arrivent même pas à la cheville.
This was my first car in 1983 as a senior in High school. Green with 3M laser stripe, 351 Cleveland, also had finned aluminum GT rocker panels with a shaker. Dad worked the deal and we got her for $1250.00. It wasn't a Mustang so it was considered a second class citizen. 😄
Had one like this as a young man. Bought it off my parents to keep my drunken uncle from buying it. Mine was a Calais 4-door hardtop with metallic turquoise paint with a leather and jacquard interior. It was a 1 owner car when my folks bought it in '69. I bought it in '70 or '71 and kept it a year or so before trading it for a '66 Tornado and regretted it ever since. What a car that was. (The Caddy) Traded the Olds for a '62 Buick ragtop. Nice car, but nowhere near my Caddy. Thanks for sharing.
Wow.. I just recieved my dads 1980 f150. Its beat up. It was a farm truck.. It wont pass emissions cause my dad took the smog pump off... So it justsits.. I
One the most attractive of the '70's muscle cars - from the outside. But...the interiors on these were gawdawful. I dont know what Ford & Mopar were thinking when they designed the interiors of this class of car. GM & AMC were waaaaay ahead in that dept.
Man people back in the 30s through until the 40s 50s and 60s didn’t realize how lucky they were. Even with the terrible wars that happened. life was so much simpler and things were much better built. When I see things from those decades. I see pride I see determination I see everything good. Today everything is the complete opposite. Idc what anyone thinks the throwaway culture sucks
