1963 Cadillac coupe deville
This car pictured here is a 63 Cadillac coupe deville owned by my neighbor and long time friend Jaime. The car has been fitted with air bags to give it a low stance when needed but still have full, if not better suspension capability when driving. Originally this car was for sale from the dealer at $5,386 dollars. Today this number is tripled for one of these beautiful classics and I am sure you can see why. This is when Cadillac really started to tone down on the fins because previous years where way more robust and in your face. The american consumers had become unappreciative of the looks as many cars had fins so the manufacturers started to move away from it. Today however people can not get enough of it, most likely due to how dull and boring cars are today. The interior is as spacious as can be with chrome pieces everywhere. The car has the original Cadillac v8 engine and 350 transmission. This truly is a piece of american art that nothing in the automotive world can compete with today. Cadillac was the symbol of luxury and elegance and still is to this day.
