Barn Find 1955 Cadillac Fleetwood Series 75 Factory Limo - First Time Outside in 47 Years 

Halleluija !!

It's a garage, not a barn, really.

Who?

You right.classic not plastic.

please observe closely @ 1:49

@@antonfarquar8799 Aw crap. Those are the cranks for the wind wing vents. I was wrong with a capital R.

NO . Crank Vent Wing Windows Only !

Some did....like today.

Check my other videos. Two Fleetwood Sixty-Specials: 1948 & 1949. The fourth (empty) bay at one time contained a 1938 Series 90 Fleetwood Style No. 9033 (V-16), but it had sold and removed around 15 years before this video was shot.

I noticed the same... Ahahaha!!

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!

One solid vehicle

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 !

He was actually a faculty member! :) Chemistry Dept.

I live in nova scotia good to see this find still here

The gas filler in the 58s was also under (behind) the left tail light... The light housing swung upwards.

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.

Needs/needed paint!

@@wilsixone really? It didn’t look that bad.

@@grazz7865 Look at minute mark 1:40. def needs paint. 😁

@@jamesp13152 oh yeah. More than likely. Anything that sits , even covered is going to suffer rust and corrosion. The best way to keep classic cars is a climate controlled warehouse

@@grazz7865 Beautiful car. Love to see it restored.

Hi Larry: I was only involved on that day, and not afterward. I have six antiques myself already and these cars were going to owners elsewhere in the Atlantic provinces. I know the new owners (three different parties) had plans for the cars, but I have no idea how those are going. -Josh A. Noiles, Cadillac & LaSalle Club Member No. 28180

@@JoshNoiles *Well, would be nice to know what happened to it... Would be a shame if it just went to some slob who only let it continue to rot? Deserves to be restored*

For gods sake, give that beautiful car a nice wash job. That paint still looks like it will still shine.
