- Out of my personal collection. this beautiful coach was rescued from a Texas field 8 years ago. Follow me as I show you her journey until present day along with her history.
That is BAD ASS! I love the body style of the 58's...one of kind and very unique!
It stared in '57 and the body design was so good they copied it ontot the Corvette in '58. richard.
Amber is gorgeous! I'm a lover of her patina just the way it is. That's her character, her life!
beautiful hearse indeed gave her life again
Love the stiff in the back! Always strange seeing old relics when I saw them brand new. Old caddies were quite a (large) ride. Wonderful cruisers!
Thanks for saving that car👍
Guy that was first in line wanted to resto mod her. I paid extra to get her
I share your love for early 50's Cadillacs. I can't wait to see your 58 Fleetwood and am following your progress on the 52.
Video on 58 will be coming soon
Ahhh, I am blessed to have met the lovely Amber!!! You just dont see such a rare beauty such as her!!! ❤❤❤
Lucky for you the cracked glass is the flat glass. There's hope. You're a patient man, and not getting overwhelmed is the first best step. Thank you for sharing. I had a '59 Coupe DeVille when I worked at Apple. White. And I had a good friend with a '73 Miller Meteor ambulance. I miss him. And that amazing car.
I also had a 73 Miller meteor
Gorgeous car
Ambulance with pointy fins great business idea it's making your hospital clients.
Nice work, sweet Caddy .
I see all kinds of traffic stops involved with this car!!.,YIKES.... NEAT CAR,!!!
that patina is personality
I really love this car! It has a history to tell. Including heavy hail it went through. Amazing that this super heavy duty hood could get dented like that. Maybe the cracked glass on top of the right quarter panel got damaged by hail as well.
It would be a shame to over restore this vehicle. The history of it would be lost. IT is always a dilemma: What do I fix what do I let the way it was?
Luckily budget restrictions prevent us from being over the top perfectionists.
I love amber!! Such a beauty!!😍
great stuff fab. "My wife is having a baby. please come quickly"
awesome video i just found your channel
Thank you for NOT turning it into a Ecto.
The Federal Director is a PA15A series 1E. That version was introduced in the early 1970s.
@nmtoc yup works just fine for.the coach
Mr. B. Here ! 👀😎👍 What I seen some vehicles look better in patina finish ! Not all , this one 👍👍👍
I remember some funeral homes that had multiple cars having both dedicated hearses and ambulances rather than using combinations whereas others with smaller fleets had the combination for dual use and removable red lights, etc. Hope you’re able to finish as evidently the 57 58 seem to be rare for some reason.
That siren is scary!
I also love the 57, but they seem very rare; seem to be more 58s out there
Just remember to not cross the streams.
I hate "patina" cars but that actually looks great
It's all about the color
You wouldn't consider updating that old Frigidaire AC system with the modern 134A Vintage Air stuff ??
No need really
HOW MUCH DO YOU CHARGE FOR A LAST FLIGHT TO HEAVEN !!!
Where did you get the Red Headlights?
From ebay years ago, have another set they were quite common decades ago on ambulances and fire trucks
Nice vehicle I've no use for a patina that makes a vehicle look like it's been sitting around in a farm field for 10 decades I would paint the thing and make it look like it should brand new
Sure please send me the check lol
@@Cadillac_Coach_Works you have to spend money to make money
@davidg813 that's money I don't need to spend. I get a ton of compliments the way she is. Why do something that will erase the last original painted 58 m-m? I understand fake patina which is stupid. Do you understand how much work it would be to prep this car for paint? 500lbs of old cracked lead would need to come off. So your statement is wrong on this one. You'd NEVER get your money back.
Someone clear-coated over crappy paint. Calls " her" ' she' lol
So tired of the 'patina' fad.
Not for evreyone but being only 1 left with orginal paint it is a bit of history
One would think, as your baby, at least the interior would be clean! NOT!
Want to write me a check? Also it's a work in progress...
Why, don't you own a vacuum cleaner and a damp cloth?@@Cadillac_Coach_Works
I wish you would have painted . I think in the future you will regret it . Patina should be a swear word when it comes to paint.
Why paint the last one that still has orginal paint? It's history. Your now the 3rd person ever to say I should paint it.
Omg the glare on that photo album is horrendous it ruined the viewing experience 👎👎👎👎
Then don't watch it. Don't hate on something because you don't have it. Go troll someone else
Paint that poor caddy!! Patina is not cool. 🤮
You seem to be one of 3 to say that. Only one left that hasn't been resprayed. So no thanks
