Rumor has it this car is going away; of course I've been hearing the like for about two years. I have a contact with the owner and would love to verify this information or mis-information. It's been featured on American Pickers, local telephone books, and even some calendars. Right now there's a sailboat parked nearby that seems to get in the way of the creative process, but it still remains a photographer's dream. My dad owned one of these back in the 1960s; white top over emerald green!
@bostonguy01 I bought a 1959 Cadillac 6229K sedan about 5 months ago. I got a quote on some basic maintenance (Tranny recap, carb rebuild, suspension kit, and rewire). 12,000 for all of that. O_O So I learned how to do it myself, and wound up having to pay only 5K for the rewire, and a new interior. DIY is pretty easy. Just have patience! :)
Awesome slideshow!!! That is a 1950 Cadillac Series 62 Sedan. My good friend Mike a.k.a. birdman89100 took some video of it. He told me it has a 1968 Illinois license plate on it. I give this video five stars!!!!
I always stop there to check it out if u peek into the barn there is a sailboat

Thats a really cool Caddy. To bad someone doesn't fix it up before it sits longer and is beyond restoration.

My Uncle had one of these when I was a kid. It was stolen from in front of his house at 1139 White Plains Road in the Bronx...

Like this very much - where exactly is this barn? I live in Rochelle and am trying to pinpoint where you shot this.

If that's the best they can do, no wonder GM is bankrupt.

Are all the photos taken by you? I'm impressed. High quality photographs. You should build a web photo gallery, if you haven't already. Nice.
