krenzy Posted May 3, 2008 Report Posted May 3, 2008 That color brown is tricky to pull off, but right there that car does it! Your father and you did a great job I love the '58's because they remind me of my favorite '58 car: The Impala. Quote
Garrett Powered Posted May 3, 2008 Report Posted May 3, 2008 I want an allante real bad. those wheels look good on it. Quote
Shifter23 Posted May 4, 2008 Report Posted May 4, 2008 Thats what i was thinking nothing against the designers but the stock wheels were kinda sad. I bought the car with these already installed. Lol id take these any day over the stockers! They are nice and well they will turn heads for years to come. Thanks for the complements i cant wait to finish my 70 Eldorado that will be nice too it is tripple black. Quote
Garrett Powered Posted May 5, 2008 Report Posted May 5, 2008 they are out of the price range I like to spend though. I was looking at some 100k+mile ones that they still wanted like 10-15 grand for! and they mostly all are that pearl white. that blue is nice looking. looks way better some other color than pearl white. candy apricot butter or something. but if I was going to pay 15 grand for a late 80s early 90s I would have to go with a GN or TTA. but then again, might go with a mc ss or xr4ti since they are cheaper. wont be as stylin as an allante though. they made bad ass cars back then!

Shifter23 Posted May 5, 2008 Report Posted May 5, 2008 Actualy got the car off a old car dealer friend for no joke 5K. He hooked me up! Lol i wanted Krenzy's car but i am a Caddy man at heart my father would roll in his grave if i didn't go after this. So i think i did good lol. Yeah your right though they do average for around 15K. Also just for the record no this was not a salvage vehicle or wrecked for me to get it for 5K. Just an old friend that needed to make some room in his collection and wanted someone who would take care of her best. Quote
krenzy Posted May 5, 2008 Report Posted May 5, 2008 Hell you got a steal! I don't blame you for taking it over my TGP!...and I worship the pavement my TGP lays tread upon. LOL Quote
ManicMechanic Posted May 5, 2008 Report Posted May 5, 2008 I'm a Cadillac man too, I drive one of these, in black... But I WANT one of these... In nicer shape, of course... The mortuary I work for has a gorgeous fleet of '59s... I can run red lights with the purple flags flyin' On this jet black Cadillac... I drive a hearse, things could be worse I could be ridin' in the back... Quote
krenzy Posted May 5, 2008 Report Posted May 5, 2008 GHOSTBUSTERS!!!!! 1959 Eldorado hearse is also a dream of mine! Actually I'd prefer the '59 ambulance, but I'll never refuse a hearse. What song are those lyrics from? Quote
