Title: Psychobilly Cadillac
Post by: Betty Davis on January 10, 2005, 10:04:37 PM
I am trying to find out if anyone ever built a customized Cadillac to fit the description of the one in the Johnny Cash song,
One piece at a time" released in 1976. I think it was called a "Psychobilly Cadillac." If one was built, are there any photos available?

Years ago in our region, we had a member that was a little short on funds, so he made a combination 51-53 Cadillac to ride around in.

I saw this car in the video Johnny Cash made for this song several years after the song was a hit. And long before CMT and MTV. He and June Carter Cash were in it.
