This is one of 2 that I own. Hate to sell it, but 6 cars is a little impractical.
I want $9000. Thanks

Wow !! Great shape and looks all original, too. Brings back some memories for me. My oldest sister was married in June 1960 and a friend of my mother's had a Pink '59 Caddy that served as the limo for the day. I remember it well and I was but 10 years old at the time. :D

Man I love that car. Reminds me of my 66 Lincoln Continental with sucide doors, and a 462 4 bbl motor. Man I miss that car.

NICE CAR. I hope it goes to a good home. If i had the money, I'd add another to the collection. Good luck!

Beautiful car...But if I bought it and took it to work one day, it wouldn't fit into the parking spaces.

That car is a great example of why communism was doomed.

Its a 59 Caddy series 62 4 Door.
Odometer reads 44000 but is broke. I am the third owner. My mother used to drive me by this car a few towns over because the previous owner pulled it out of the garage every Sunday. He owned it since the early 80's.
This care is rare because of its color, persian sand and the fact that it has NO power options.
The floors are solid and the body has no bondo. It was repainted at some point but whoever did it was a pro, and it shows.
The interior needs help, mainly the door panels and carpet, as well as a new dash and horn ring.
The engine runs good, but I cant get it to idle good. It is very characteristic of a cracked exhaust valve. I really think that is the case.
The suspension needs new bushings. The trans shifts beautifully.
I am negotiable and the car is worth what im asking because it is an excellent foundation for a project. The only drawback is the fact that it is a four door.

Nice car Zack.
I never saw that one. You must have a storage facility.

Will you be moving all the cars south?

I might be available to drive one down for you...
hint hint.;)

Awesome Zack. Don't let my wife see it. She's in her Pink Phase right now. I got nowhere to park it.
