A friend of mine mentioned there was a 1956 Caddy Sedan Deville rotting away in his grandmothers garage. And that it was PINK! Well Duff and I couldn't pass that up! Lets see if we can get this thing back on the road after 50 plus years of sitting abandoned in a 2 stall garage! Sorry guys but this one is already spoken for. I do still have the engine and transmission however if you need a core 365 OHV V8.

You stuck with that so much longer than I would have with that motor. However, you outdid yourself with the Puddin appearance and to top it all off, a pressure washing. Thanks for making Monday mornings so enjoyable. I hope this car doesn't make you lose the shop.

There are definitely some experts out here but I'm not going to say anything🤣.I've seen too many RU-vid know it all guys, one of them was telling me not to use or he couldn't use a ohm meter on a coil, he just takes the coil and throws it in the corner and I thought what a baby. But he broke out his own meter to test diodes, and I thought what a hypocrite not mortski some other dude. that had a RU-vid channel and thought he was God, he is very smart but he's not God. have a good day too bad that Cadillac was stored like that. I told him you can use a battery and a light bulb to test dials where do you use a ohm meter only when you want to .🙄

Penzoil Note: My dad bought a 1965 Pontiac Bonneville in 1966. Car had 3,200 miles on it and had it's first service before he drove it off from the dealership. He changed the oil in the car religiously its whole life at or before 3,500 miles and used Penzoil 10W-40 its whole life. He gave me the car for Christmas 1983 and in 1984 the timing chain broke at 158,000 miles. When I removed the valve covers there was literally only room for the rockers to move. Everything else was solid sludge, lifter valley was just as bad. I don't care if they say that they have changed the formula, I will not use Penzoil in anything ever.

Didn't you see the cricket on the air cleaner? I was sure it was the one driving him nuts but then he said he squished one, so there must have a few more living in the Caddy :D

Too bad Mortske 😞, a 56 Caddy Hardtop in pink no less. As usual you gave it your all. Yes it was in a barn but Mother Nature made sure her goose was cooked. And who throws a bag of salt on the trunk lid of their car. 👎. I’m sure you were hoping for better outcome. Thanks for the vid Mortske n Duff you always entertain.

Mortske, great video. I love the old gal, but it's a shame that she let herself go like that. When you said she had a bag of salt on the trunk, then showed the damage, I said out loud, "NOOOOO"! My wife yelled across the room, "What's wrong"? "Are you OK"? HAA HA! I told her what happened when she came over, and all she did was roll her eyes, as she turned to walk away, ha haa. Oh lord, I love me those "Dagmyers"! That awesome air cleaner housing would look pretty sweet sittin' on top of the old 454 in my '79 C30 crew cab dually. It would make people's mouths drop open every time I would open up the hood on the old gal, which has been happening a little more often lately than I like. Grrr, older trucks and cars, God bless them all. Anyway, great show, went well with the sunrise out here in northern Arizona, and my coffee. Thanks again for my Monday mornin' wake-up. 😃🤪😫😬🤔😉👍

What a shame this cool old car wasn't stored in a concrete building with a dry floor and roof, I guess nobody at the time thinks clapped out old motors are gonna be worth something in 50 years! Love your videos and am always excited to watch a new upload, you put a lot of your sense of humour and personality into your videos and they are very entertaining. I think I've watched nearly all of your back catalogue by now, I like how you show the entire process and how you are honest about how everything goes, it's like we're along for the ride with you. Look forward to future videos, keep up the good work, and tell Duff he's a good boy from me!

I always liked those air cleaners. "What are you smelling here? Defeat?" I lost my sandwich over that! I admit to screaming at the screen that it had a multi piece torque coupler/converter. Lots of automatics and semi automatics had that design in the 40s and 50s. U gave it a shot, but the rest of the car, is pretty shot too. Parts car though.
