    So the swedish winter is here and I didnt have anything to do in my garage so I found this Cadillac through a good friend in Umeå. It needs some work but it runs and is a really good project! I am really happy that I got the privalige to buy it!
    Here is a picture of my new love!

    The plan for the caddy this year is to get it mechanicly in good shape,brakes, engine, gearbox.I have to fix all side windows cause rightside doesnt have any at all, and the left side is plastic and very ugly done. Seats are some 70s kind and very poor shape(its got blankets over right now). Someone put a molotovcoctail in it so its original interior is gone in a fire.need to find new sofas and build a totally new inside of the car. I cant afford to fix the body this year,maybe next winter, it will not look good with poor chrome and new paint so I will leave that for now.
    It looks like good weather tomorrow so I will take some new pictures of both cars then!

    Agreed. That's beautiful. I'd have a hard time considering that a "project".
