Got some pretty major plans. But its a issue of time, might have to wait until after Jan before I really tear into it. Got a pretty heavy work schedule for the next two months then back to my usual work schedule.

Stupid Stupid me. Shippers tell me they are going to get the car on Friday, no truck arrives, then Saturday, no truck, now today again this morning. The guy I bought the car from has got to think that this is insane.
I never will ship a car under 1K miles again, I am just going to get in my truck rent a carriage and just drive out and back. I hate saying that something is going to get done then not having it get done.
Of course I paid in full for the shipment so they have me by the dangling bits.
Can you stop payment on debit card transaction at 10 days out?

Its here and in the garage. Quite possibly the biggest car I have driven in my freakin life. Needs 80-100 hours of my time though.
I challenge anyone to find another two door production convertible this big. It mush weight 1 ton more ten my truck.

Very Nice!! Can't go wrong with a ragtop Caddy!
I scored this '65 Eldorado for $4k, and I've been driving the piss out of it.

From what I can find online, curb weight appears to be in the range of 4600-4700 lbs, length 222 inches. The '61 Bonneville convertible I used to own was 217 inches, and more like 4100 lbs - I'm surprised the Cadillac is that much heavier.

Its a heavy heavy car, I am surprised the airbags actually hold the darn body up. I wanted big, I got big.
I am stoned again on flu medicine again so if that does not make sense sorry.
