This is a great channel to watch all about The King's Caddies.
Of all the celebs who loved them, Elvis did the most.

That was a great video, especially for those of us with 50's Cads. [Spoiler Alert!] I was a little disappointed to learn that the story about his '55 Black Limo is probably a fake. I've told a lot of people that my '55 75 Series was the same as one owned by Elvis. I even use the picture of my car taken when I purchased it to posit that the fingerprints seen in the very thick dust on the front fender "just might" be those of Elvis :)

The pics in John's post and peppered through the video show the'54 limo he definitely owned. Unless you've owned a 54-56 Cadillac you probably can't tell the difference, especially the 75 series which share even more with each other than the sedans and coupes of those year. Therefore I'm still going to tell people that Elvis owned one just like mine!

More.
FYI....Elvis was a really good actor, see King Creole.
But the Hollywood producers only casted him in B movie roles that were silly.
