You have no idea how much I love this video!!! It brings back such wonderful memories of driving my Dad's 1970 - right down to the color combination. ❤❤❤
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! My Dad also had a 1970 Coupe deVille. Loving these cars as I do, it was my desire to capture the experience of riding in a '70 as best I could! It pleases me to know I accomplished that!
What a magnificent automobile with superb ride quality! Truly, "the Standard of the World" that has been preserved in the condition as it was built! Thanks for posting this video.
If you had it in the '70's, that was a lot of fun, wasn't it? I believe the '70's cars were the most distinctive & stylish. They were certainly, nice & roomy, weren't they?
This color sure is nice, isn't it? What would you call that, platinum beige? I see, now, the outside looks sort of bronze, I guess. Well, this is wonderful! I could ride in this car all day. As a matter of fact, I have the video on a loop, while listening to "Sounds of Seeburg 1968" on another RU-vid page. Reminds me of the old days, riding with my dad. He always like that sort of music in his Cadillacs. Makes you feel like you're on top of the world!
Thank you! The color is code 69 Walnut Brown. It does have a lot of gold metallic in the paint. My father bought a '70 Coupe deVille new. This also reminds me of riding with him.

@@ClassicCarMainiac Do you remember how reasonably priced they were in the '70's? Compared to today, you could pick them up "for a song," and they were so much more impressive! As a kid, I liked the big seats on the '69 & '70 models.
I purchased a Byzantine Gold with leather '70 Coupe deVille with 60,000 miles off a car lot for $800.00 in 1982. The car was mint with the exception of the paint. Miss those days!

Ahh, when Cadillacs were dignified, distinctive & impressively, beautiful. They would lift the spirit with prestige & elegance, the likes of which, have, for so long, been forgotten by today's standards. I, for one, truly miss them. Why has this society become so utilitarian and boringly, rather common, in its tastes, when we could be enjoying so much more?
Richard E Dodds, I owned a beautiful 1970 white coupe deville with red leather seats back in the late 1980,s,They don't build Cadillacs like this anymore roomy and comfortable for bigger men like me, 6ft1 250 pounds 472 motor was very strong and fast on the highway , When running the car with the cruise control on I had 14 to 15 per gallon at 70 to 75 miles per hour This car had over 100,000 Miles on it A little rusty on the car I got married and started having a having a family I sold the car for 5000.00. dollars Sincerely Richard E Dodds So Sioux city Nebraska 😂

@@richarddodds3235 You must have sold it late in the game. BTW~ yeah, I know the car. It was beautiful! My dad had one with navy blue seats. I had a red one with white leather seats, but when I sold mine before it was a classic, I only got $1,500 and it only had 60,000 miles on it. Back then, you could get good deals on used cars. Now, not so much. ~James🌠
