1951 Cadillac series 62 sedan. When I got this car the trans was out. I bought it for the good running 331 V8. So rather than let it sit in a a field I decided to put a small block chevy engine and 350 turbo trans it. The brakes are all new and stops very well with new lines and hoses. The fuel tank was cleaned and new line installed. The engine is out of a late 70s camaro and runs very good.I believe it to be a 305 H.O. I didnt go completely through the engine because I heard it run before we installed it and was very clean. The intake valley and crankcase were spotless as well. The transmission is brand new and shifts like a dream. It also has a nice rochester 4 barrel on it. Seems to do good on fuel. New billet distributor, pulleys, one wire alternator, water pump, radiator and fuel pump. I had to make the y pipe fit into the x member and it looks good. There are many new parts. I put in a new fuse box and installed new wiring. I tried to keep many original features, such as shift lever and throttle pedal. Fuel gauge works, head lights, tail lights, and rear turn signals also. I was pleasantly surprised how well this car drives and cruises! It will cruise down the highway at 80 mph with about 1/4 throttle left(must have higher rear gear). New coker 8.00X15 wide whites, about $1000 in rubber. Original wheels were blasted and painted black. The car has an era correct spare tire and wheel with 3 original hubcaps in the trunk. Car will start up and drive wherever you want to go.
There are a few needs like any car-No carpet on interior floor-speedo broke on the last drive-rust under rear doors-interior is in overall worn condition-front turn signals need new wiring and sockets-
Good reliable cruiser but not show. Patina in abundance on this jewel.

2014 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year finalists announced [w/poll]
Tue, 10 Dec 2013The 2014 North American International Auto Show is right around the corner, which means it's high time we found out which cars and trucks would be finalists for the prestigious North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards.
The finalists - three in cars and three in three trucks/utilities - are dominated by American brands, with two-thirds of the finalists hailing from either General Motors or Chrysler (don't worry Ford, there's always next year), while outliers from Mazda and Acura can be found in each contest. Here now is the list of finalists for the big prizes:
2014 North American Car of the Year:
Chrysler, Nissan looking into claim that their cars are industry's most hackable
Sun, 10 Aug 2014A pair of cyber security experts have awarded the ignominious title of most hackable vehicles on American roads to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, 2014 Infiniti Q50 and 2015 Cadillac Escalade.
Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek are set to release a report at the Black Hat hacking conference in Las Vegas, Automotive News reports. The two men found the Jeep, Caddy and Q50 were easiest to hack based not on actual tests with the vehicles, but a detailed analysis of systems like Bluetooth and wireless internet access - basically, anything that'd allow a hacker to remotely gain access to the vehicle's systems.
Considering this lack of hands-on testing, the pair acknowledge that "most hackable" could be a relative term - they point out that the vehicles may actually be quite secure.
Ghostbusters director tweets first photos of new Ecto-1
Wed, Jul 8 2015Ghostbusters is heading back to theaters next year with a new look. Rather than bringing back the original's aging comedic actors, four actresses are taking over the starring roles, including Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon, and Leslie Jones. Although, one of the movie's major highlights is missing from that list – the Ecto-1. Originally based on a 1959 Cadillac ambulance, we're now getting the first glimpses of the decked-out, ghost-hunting wagon from the new version thanks to director Paul Feig on Twitter. Purists might like that the Ghostbusters are sticking with a Caddy, but the producers are going for a slightly newer, more macabre approach, as well. Rather than an ambulance conversion, the latest one starts as a hearse. Feig also has his Twitter profile picture of a ghost taking over as the hood ornament, and he even tweeted a shot of the rear. @szewcik_james Okay. pic.twitter.com/sHkx1Soj6p — Paul Feig (@paulfeig) July 8, 2015 Being the Internet, Feig is being deluged both with hyperbolic vitriol for changing things, and praise for the switch. He has politely tweeted about the situation. Not blocking or deleting. I hear you all and appreciate all your input, good or bad. Thanks. https://t.co/pxZsWGeNyL — Paul Feig (@paulfeig) July 8, 2015 Keep in mind this Caddy hearse is about as old today as the original Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters' release in 1984. Having the ladies driving a '50s Caddy might stretch the imagination too far even in a movie about fighting the undead. This approach seems like a perfect compromise between old and new.
