The 59 is one of my most favorite Cadillacs. I've never been intimidated by the size of the car or its fins. Maybe because I took the time to find out how this and the entire GM divisions came to be put into production in 1959. However at the end of the day I am just a Car Crazy Cadillac fan till the day I die. Glad I checked this 📹 out!

@FrankGutowski-ls8jt 5 лет назад

Chris Allen My Dad was a welder and my mom was a housewife. They paid $4500 cash for our base model two door coupe. They kept it until 1972, when they traded it with 52K mikes for a four door mid size Buick. The Buick was a nice driving car. The Cadillac was distinguished mostly for its size and design. The Cadillac was garaged and kept immaculate by me and my Dad.

@kaelkirkpatrick1131 5 лет назад

We had a lady who drove her red ‘59 to church and more people were interested in her car than the minister at the door. LOL

@DwightMS1 2 года назад

My parents had a '59 Cad. It was so big, they couldn't close the garage door; it had dimples on it from resting on the points of those fins. It was probably the gaudiest car GM ever made, but it was so comfortable. Our family of four could drive all the way from L.A. to Las Vegas on a summer day in comfort. And all our luggage fit in that huge trunk.

As someone who was in a serious accident in a 1964 chevy without seatbelts, crawling out of the overturned car without a scratch, I've come to the conclusion that safety regulations are a bunch of money making scams by safety companies.

@Robert8455 2 года назад

I think all those involved with designing, building, selling and owning these fine cars must have really known how special they were when they came out in '59. Cadillac has made many fine machines and this iconic version is super special. Love the amazing condition it is in and its wonderful to see it rolling out in the beautiful weather.

I was 13 years old in 1959. Back then a lot of oider people drove cadillacs. A lot of them felt that the 59 cadillac was such an embaressment. Also people that had one were constantly having the taillights stolen. It was the epitomy of the 50s. Note the 60 and 61 were more subdued. I love it thanks for the presentation

The 59 was always my favorite growing up. Now that I’m older it’s still top 5 but I think I may have to put it behind the slightly more muted style of the 61/62 bodies. Hard to say, those fins are just amazing.

Another long-time fave. I used to work in the GM building, where a 1959 Eldorado Biarritz convertible was on permanent display in the lobby (top down). I visited it every day on my lunch hour. One day I took a measuring tape with me and noted the fins were 13" tall. 1959 and 1960 Plymouth (full size) fins were 12" tall. 1960 Chrysler & DeSoto fins were 13" also, but slanted and much thicker, so you didn't realize how big they really were. All great cars.

I remember my mother had a 59 red convertible like this but with solid red interior in 1965 and only paid 250.00 for it. Back then it was just a 6 year old used car and not the holy grail it is today. I also remember it was side swiped on 15th Street in Washington, DC and she never retrieved it from the towing yard. Even as a 10 year old I loved that car. To this day the 59 is still my dream car. What I wouldn't give to have one now.

GM's '59's were a knee jerk reaction to Chrysler Corp's 1957's. This is why GM's '58's were a one year only redesign. The story goes the head of GM got a hold of Chrysler's new car brochure, threw it on the desk of his head designer and said, "Why don't you quit?"

I transferred to a new school in my senior year in 1967. In study hall a girl passed me a note asking if I knew how to drive. Yes. Would I teach her? What kind of car do you have? Her mother's '59 Coupe deVille. Oh, absolutely! :) Her mother was short and could barely see over the dash. Actually I was more of a driver for the girl who was really, shall we say, popular with the boys who spent my driving time through SE CO and NE NM with her BF du jour in the back seat. Loved driving that car.

This car is a symbol of all high hopes humanity had in fifties. Bright spark from a future, that never happened...

Hi ukranaut, Interesting perspective. Well said. Lou

I'm 20 years old and I remember the day my mother and I went to the vehicle toy section of Müller to buy my favourite American 1950s car: A pink 1959 Cadillac which I still have, though it's partially fallen apart from me playing with it a lot in my younger years (missing bullet shape tail lights, wipers and chrome part next to the boot broke off and loose sun visors and windscreen) Then came the 2017 Piston Riot meeting in the capital city where I and my parents encountered a *real* 1959 Cadillac, registered in the capital city despite the fact 1950s American cars are very rare in Europe.

Hi Florjan, Seeing 1950's cars in American is rare today too. Happy to read this car brings back memories of your Parents encountering a car like this :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou

The owner of this extraordinary vehicle is extraordinary himself. As down to earth a guy as Chicago itself.

In the early 60s there was a toy called a Playmobile. It was the dash of a car with a windshield. Seeing the dash in this Cadillac I would say it was the inspiration for that toy.

Hi flamboyantstudioscom, Thank you for viewing and sharing the story of the toy :-) Hope you see many more cars you'll enjoy on this RU-vid Channel, Lou

Seeing it being backed out of that garage is a perfect simulacrum of the contents of a historical tomb (KV59?) being displayed to the public for the very first time. Behold- the personal chariot of a very powerful pharaoh.

We had a family friend who had a white one just like this. Many drives in the summer with top down. The ride was amazing. This one is just great!

thanks once again. I was always partial to GM styling themes from the '50's and '60's. All I can think of when I see this particular Cadillac with its red theme is My Cousin Vinny.

@loucostabile 7 лет назад

I can see this car being driven in that movie :-)

I used to have a 70' Coupe DeVille, great car. Norwegians say they won't buy Cadillacs because they don't like sitting between two Finns.

I've wanted a '59 Cadillac exactly like this ever since I saw it in a car collectors book when I was a little kid, it's probably what started my obsession with '50's Cadillacs.

I had the honour to restore a 59 4 door -the owner bought it in Montana trailered to Ontario Canada and I worked on it for over a year . It seemed to be never ending ,length wise .When I was younger ,I thought it was vain to record my doing those things ,but that was a mistake in hindsight I guess. Great videos Lou. Thanx.

@loucostabile 7 лет назад

Hi Tim Mullens, Thank you on the compliment on the videos, and hey, it's never too late to try videoing and sharing, Lou

I had two of these, one in UK and one in California. Both red. I thought the fiberglass top cover only came with Eldorados? But no matter, it looks great. beautiful restoration.

My dad had a 59 Cadillac when i was growing up. I've never been in a car that rides as smooth and comfortable. Wish they still made cars like this. Car manufacturers today don't care about quality they are just looking to make money and putting out junk.
