That Eldo is sexy.. I'd gladly take a 66 / 67 toronado ... We used to have one that we took from jersey to Albany (turning stone resort) we would do 85 up the NY through way with the ac blasting like it wasn't no thing

This was my summer daily driver for awhile, and had several later big Cads as well. 69-70 Deville convertibles are my favorite.

Nice car. My parents had a dark green/black '70 Coupe de Ville when I was a kid that my dad redid. Man, we all loved that car and it was just such a great family cruiser. I'd love to find another decent one just to take my mom for a ride again. Thanks for the great memories.

1966 Toronado I pulled out of Gold Run California 2 years ago. I am the 3rd. owner. It still has the Original exhaust system on it dated 10 65. It just turned 50 years old last month. I am waiting 3 months for the engine to come back from the rebuilder, we had to have a set of pistons custom made. Only fit 1966 &amp; 1966 425 Toronado's. 2 tons+ of GM engineering @ it's finest.

I once had a 64 Caddy de Ville convertible. It was an old parade car that had 26K miles on it when I got it. Came equipped with parade horns. The car had no ac but power windows, brakes, steering,power top. but no seat belts. A true parade car. It had one repaint in white with black leather. That car was so well built it was crazy. The amount of sound deadening in the carpet, the width of the doors were remarkable. It cruised so well. My girls were in junior high school when I owned it and played soccer. My wife use to load up the car with 7 girls and run car pool. But only after I sourced some original seat belts [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img] I hated to see it go but moved on to other cars. I did enjoy that big ole boat. And it is funny how many people ask me about that car.

I like big cars and prefer them over a GM A-body as they have more leg room... and are just cooler and more unusual. I currently have a '67 Grand Prix..... 400 4 speed manual steering and brakes... original paint... 77,000 original miles. Also have a '67 Catalina convertible.. 428.. hood tach...
