What a Cadillac, this is something! So much styling, and craftsmanship. This is a car built to last! All metal and nearly no plastic. Cars like this will never be built again.

Hi Robert Smith, Well said :-) Glad you enjoyed this one. I do too, Lou

@natehawk5339 6 лет назад

Robert Smith that's debatable. Have you seen the new Mustang? It's stunning!

@natehawk5339 6 лет назад

I was born in 2001, and I think these classic Cadillacs are absolutely breathtaking! I love learning about these classic cars, and I'm gonna try and find a red 59' Eldorado with not too many miles, hopefully! Thanks Lou :)

@BrianChappie 7 лет назад

My all-time favorite car. I've never seen one in that color before. Looking-up the paint code, I think it's called "Wood Rose". A really beautiful car. Thanks, Lou!

Leaves me yearning for more decoration on the right of the Dashboard area. Beginning to mature into preferring the grandeur, the grace, of '40's US/UK cars, but for the thrilling-feeling, these were the pinnacles.

Beautiful car. For me, the styling of the '58 Fleetwood and Eldorado vs the '59 Fleetwood and Eldorado is neck and neck. Both years are ridiculous! The '58 Fleetwood quarter trim is spectacular!

The bucket seats were an option on the 1959 Eldorado Biarritz, which this car has. Unfortunately Cadillac did not offer a center console to go with them that year.

@loucostabile 4 года назад

Hi dlwatib, Thank you for viewing and sharing your knowledge, Lou

@steveferguson6809 Год назад

Apparently GM made only 99 with the bucket seat option

@peterbrooks8580 7 лет назад

Lou, This is the first time I've experienced one of these cars! The interior is very understated, almost spartan compared to earlyier 50's Caddys?I'm surprised how elegant and beautiful the car is. Lovely car, a rolling piece of art work? I don't feel embarrassed for liking this car. The color seems to sooth, instead of drawing just attention? The rear tail fins blend into the overall design? Thank You! Peter Brooks.

@loucostabile 7 лет назад

Hi Peter Brooks, A wonderful comment, and excellent description of this cars details. Thank you for viewing and sharing. You're welcome, Lou

@daniellack3559 5 лет назад

1959..Factory a/c on a convertible, all power windows (even the small vent windows), power seats, Cruise Control!...it doesn't get any better than this for Cadillac, or for America in 1959..a time to remember...glad I was around then...

@loucostabile 5 лет назад

Hi daniel lack, Thank you for viewing, sharing, and sounds like good times :-) Lou

@rarevhsuploads4995 7 лет назад

Whilst I enjoyed seeing the iconic 59' again it's really the black 1960 next to it I'm waiting for. I'd love a comparison video Lou. Thanks.

@loucostabile 7 лет назад

Hi Rare VHS uploads, I don't have that one (although I'm waiting for that one too if / when I'm invited back) however here is a 1960 that's similar with a different color, enjoy, Lou ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wYNJNQVXu4w.html

Well I'm a Polonez/Fiat guy from Poland but I always have LOVED them american classics from 50's, 60's and 70's. In '59 when you had Chevrolets and Cadillacs (nick names for almost every luxury car of American descent) there was only one passenger car model in Poland - Warszawa M20. It looked like '46 - 48 Chevrolet with flush fitted fenders, 4 door fastback, 2 liter engine. They made that car 1951 - 1973! Then we had Syrena (57 - 83), Fiat 125p (67 - 91), Fiat 126p (73 - 2000) and Polonez (78 - 2002).

@loucostabile 7 лет назад

Hi Obywatel Cane from Poland. Glad you're able to enjoy the American Classics on the Channel. I hope you see many more on the Channel you'll enjoy, Lou

@adhithyasodhi3203 3 года назад

Not one of the greatest Cadillacs - one of the greatest cars of all time, period. Not over-restored [or worse, resto-murdered] is a major relief

Beautiful Car! Question:> What is that belt driven aluminum finned unit, located on the L/F of the engine, next to the oil filter? Possibly, could it be the air compressor for GM's optional, (failed) air ride suspension? This option was all so available on certain Chevrolet & Buick models. If I remember correctly, the first year it was available was in 1958, and 1959 was the last year. Sometime in 1959, GM mailed out letters to the original owners of GM cars equipped with this option, that as of a "certain date", repair parts for this suspension system would not be available, but GM would convert these cars to a regular type suspension, AT NO CHARGE, to the owner. Should the owner not decide to participate in the "NO CHARGE RETRO FIT", they'd be on their own. ( I spent the better part of 35 years working in the the service dept of a large Buick dealer in Milwaukee Wi, and the owner had a big Antique and Classic car collection, including one of the air ride equipped Caddy Convertibles, spent a "BIG Chunk of Change", trying to get it to work properly. (didn't happen) {the sad part of this is, I REMEMBER WHEN THESE CARS WERE NEW!) Doc.

@mjdart54 3 года назад

Probably the greatest Caddy for recognition, but I might argue for these limited production models. The 1957-58 Eldorado Broughams that you're familiar with or even the 2019-20 CT6-V or Platinum with the 4.2L TT engine, 4-wheel steering & AWD as maybe the greatest.

IMHO, Cadillacs finest ! She needs driven !

@loucostabile 3 года назад

Hi Peter, High praise :-) I like driving them too. Lou

@dlwatib 5 лет назад

Technically those aren't hub caps, those are wheel covers. There's a distinction, a hub cap only covers the interior of the wheel, out to where the lug nuts are and not much further (and sometimes not even that much). A wheel cover covers the entire wheel clear out to the rim.

15" bias ply tires and drum brakes... how much that weighs? 4 tons? But it's beautiful.

@socksumi 2 года назад

Sophia Loren was alright but there are much more beautiful (read pretty faced) women than her in my opinion. I pretty much love all the Eldorados of the 50s and the 60s too. Jay Leno has an special affinity for the 49 Cadillac as being more over the top than any, even Rolls.

@loucostabile 2 года назад

Hi socksumi, Happy to read you love the Eldorado's during the 50's & 60's :-) Lou
