I actually met you and your father in Palm Springs at a McCormick's auction when you sold the 56 Coupe deVille....was great meeting you and your father and seeing the beautiful restoration you'd done on the Caddie...
The 1960 Series 62 also came in a Coupe, 6-Window Sedan, and Convertible. Often the Cadillac convertible is called a DeVille Convertible but that name was not used until 1964. The Series 62 became the Calais in 1965 and declined in popularity as over time the DeVilles had rocker panel mouldings and often a vinyl top. The last year for the Calais was in 1976 but the 1977 DeVille in standard trim was almost as plain. Beautiful church sanctuary and manicured lawn makes a beautiful backdrop.
This is a gorgeous Cadillac, the color is very attractive. Back in the 70s I had a 60 Cadillac that I paid $250 for. It was a factory purple color that was called Rose Mist so we called her Rose. We cruised all over Southern California & had a blast. Thanks for sharing your classic!! 👍👍🙂
Beautiful job giving a tour of this car! When I was a kid, our family car was this model in black with a black and white interior. The flat roof with the wrap around window in the back was commented on even when the car was new. Ours had factory cruise control which was a knob that was located in the upper left of the speedometer pod in that area where that emblem is. What a wonderful car! Thanks for a well edited video!
Good eye, or may I say ear. You are right! The car has park lights, not the optional fog lamps as I said in the video. Thank you for watching and being very attentive. Not too many people can tell the difference.
Beautiful car! My cousins had one of these in sort of a cocoa brown, and they drove it from Florida to Seattle in ‘62 for a family visit and to see the Seattle World Fair.
Thank you, the blue color was why we bought it. This car has made it back and forth from Palm Springs to La like a dream. Cadillac's like these are pretty reliable and would be just fine as a daily driver. The only issue is finding the space to park them!
A little bit of trivia: Beginning in 1960, the 390 V8 oil filter moved from up top to down under on the engine block; also this was the last year for the Tri-Power carburetor option (345 h.p.)
I sure like the way you could see 360 degrees, almost like a convertible! NOT like the miserable cars today with no visibility at all. I FEEL so claustrophobic in the new cars . The new Corvettes are miserable with the passenger being cut off almost completely from your passenger with that hideous center console. Those were the days when bench seats were the majority and your sweetie could nuzzle up next to you while riding down the freeway!
That's a real car. Not the crappy cars they make today.
The Flat tops were so much better than the green house slope top. 60s are so classy, great job!!
Like to see Father and Son into classic cars. Great Color and Car..
Thanks, It a great hobby!

The days of the Great American luxury cars the Cadillac's Lincoln, as with the New Yorker where just amazing beauties.
Cute salesman

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Check out my other videos esp 1960 Series 62 six window that we restored.
Thank you for showing your wonderful Caddy !

Beautiful massive car fenders and rear quarter panels alone are 20 foot long !
A beautiful Gem.
Your a lucky fella to have a beautiful car like this.
Derek you wear some really cool shirts
Love this so much - esp the steering wheel. Looks much better than the 59 which was garish. Love the color and it looks like new!
My dream car. I really like the styling. Thanks for sharing.
It is definitely great looking!

Lovely car. Nice video. Thank You.
0:46 Good video! By the way, those lamps are parking and turn signal lamps, not fog lights. Otherwise, good job.

A BEAUTY

Wow! Cool story. Sometimes people forget that these cars were built to be drivers. Thanks for watching
Pretty car !!!
Beautiful car! From the rear it’s hard to tell if it’s coming or going! 😂
Very Nice! Both, you and the car..
Thanks
This is my all time favorite and my dream car. That blue suits her perfectly. Would you recommend it as a daily driver?

@@59cadfins Thanks guys! I'll definitely look into one. Parking over 2 and a half tons of american steel will surely be a challenge.
@@joaquin1rodarte Some may say, finding parking at a Marina or a boat yard would be much easier than on the street. All the best in finding yours!
@@59cadfins they are actually reliable daily drivers??

Amazing car I’d love to make you an offer for it would you consider selling it?
Thank you, Sadly this car is one of our keepers.
@@59cadfins it’s a beauty for sure but please keep me in mind if you ever decide to sell thanks
