1959 Chevy vs. 2009 Chevy. It did not turn out how I thought it would.

Parents had 59 and 60 caddys Both were white with red leather, both drop tops. My mother hated them both, and one day turn the 60 in for Buick station wagon. My dad about shit!

The DUMMIE in the 59 chevy died because no air bags or seat belts, and is pushing daisies now, but damn he looked doing it. :biggrin:

Most of the 59 and 60 Impalas got used up in 70s demolition derbies. They were pretty useful for that.:biggrin:

Smash a bumper and dent a fender and it's totalled. Remember when we laughed at the Jap crap being recycled aluminum cans, well we joined em for gas mileage. I remember when the bikers had Cadillacs and would never drive a Jap car. Now even they are driving Foreign cars.

That's kind of what I'm looking for but maybe a couple years older. That looks to be a 69 or so. Is it for sale?

Man, meet steering wheel. Steering wheel, man. That went about like I expected.


Anyway, I am the proud owner of a '64 Cadillac Fleetwood 60 Special. It's my next project and I'm excited.

New modern designs, although referred to as crap, are way better than days of old. Tubular steel within the pillars are so much stronger, even making it more difficult for first responders and their outdated equipment. The old jaws of life are nothin compared to modern day pillars.
