Impound Yard 70 Cadillac find/Project
 

So i came across a very good deal on a 1970 Coupe De Ville from a local impound yard .Pretty rust free one ok repaint needs a windshield and pass side door glass ..
A fresh battery and gas it started right up runs great.Not a big fan of the 22"rims but the stock 472 cid 390hp engine will smoke them all day long ..
It does have a salvage cert but i have done the reconstruction deal in pa to get a title before ..
Now i have what the hell do i do with it ?????
Any ideas ?

Looks like a pretty sweat ride to put a hitch on and make use of that NMW tow bar and Chevelle brackets you've got.

There are plenty of ways to get the smell of spilled grape drink out of the seats.

Growing up, my dad took a totalled '70 Coupe De Ville and completely redid it, and it came out BEAUTIFUL. Ours was dark green and black. I'd love to find another for my mom.

Dump the rapper rims on CL also make sure there's not a stash hidden in the car!
Add Boss Hogg horns/white shoes/suits as necessary?

Sad day put the caddy on the lift . The frame is completely rotted in 5 places. Good thing the car was free. After a few monster burn outs and donuts the trans is dead .
So i stripped some parts off it sad to say it is off to the scrap yard .

One of the many rotted section of the frame .
