here are some pics of my Cadillac. it belonged to a friend of my Dad, it had been sitting in the woods for over 10 yrs. A big tree branch fell on it and did a lot of damage to the roof.I bought it from him and we pushed over to my Dad's house with a Bobcat.

sitting for that long was not kind to it but it is realtively solid. the interior isn't in terrible shape, the seats are cracked at the seams but that won't stop me from riding.:D

I sanded the points,poured a little gas in the carb and hooked a set of jumper cables to it and it fired up. I was surprised. Once I saved a little dough I bought some much needed parts and gave it a tune-up, fixed the brakes, lowered it and sandblasted the brakedrums and wheels.
