I can see the divorce documents now.

After 38 years, it all ends over a '59 Cadillac.

But, I'm safe. It's black and it's a flat top.

I promised myself, no more black cars, A/C or not!

Have 59's gone this crazy?  I mean its bonkers out there...

[Big Fins]

They are past that. My ex'59 goes by my eyes every day on my screen saver. My butt is sooooo black and blue from kicking myself over the years.

Very poor in the picture department.   No engine bay, trunk or underneath pictures.

No A/C ---perhaps a case of bottled and chilled water is included in the sale. Apparently, one is already supplied.   (attempting a bit of humor here)   James

Big Fins,
Don't kick yourself. Mom had a 57 T-bird she traded for a 59 convertible, which got traded for a 63 split window Corvette, which became to small and got traded for a Chevelke SS396, that started to rust and was traded for a 68 Charger 440. That was the last new car she had before she passed in 1970 and my oldest sister sold it for $1,000 while mom was in the hospital. Moral of the story, enjoy them when you have them and don't look in the rear view mirror.

It's just the 'cool' factor about the car.

Sorta like a 1976 Fleetwood Talisman in Code 90.

I think back on all the cars that I have owned, and if I still had them, I would have nowhere to live.   Back then, I was living on wages, and each car had to be sold to be able to get the next one, and so forth.  None were new and at least 10 years old by the time I could afford them.

For the asking price, the horn ring should not be a broken one!
