    Got this one before Xmas. Spent many a cold, wet night underneath rebuilding the front end (including losing a coil or two off the front springs), chasing down and shutting the hell up 4 exhaust leaks and taking care of some nasty trans leaks. Also rebuilt the 4GC. Now she runs pretty nice although one of those @#$% exhaust leaks is back. The plan is to consider a slight drop in the rear as well, new carpet, new rubber around windows and cruise all summer long. Come to think of it she'd look really nice in glossy, glossy black too.

    So your planning to sell it...That's a sharp 67 I figured you would put it in the stable, I've got a chopped 50, but I just picked up a 68 convertible, I kinda like the 67 and 68 bodystyles especially when they're bagged!!!

    Cruiser,
    You sure put up a nice thread. It's nice to see so many Caddy drivers on the prowl.

    38 Flattie - What radiator & fan system do you run in your 52?

    Locogringo - Who says Caddy didn't make a long roof? Sweet car...

    Al:cool:

    Here's mine, just got the title for it so it's officially mine. Started pulling the engine the other day. Maybe I can get it drivable again by the end of summer.

    i share the same sentiments as you and JRo. i can tell this car is heading down the wrong path.
     
  26. New wiring throughout, new fuse panel, converted to 12v and back down on all 4's. Putting the trim on for now until I can start sending it in to be redone, polished and chromed.

    Im very happy with the look....a touch of class. :)

    Interior to start next week! :)
