Too funny...I just moved this car on my shelf today to a different spot.  It was like seeing it again for the first time.  And then I see you photos.  Coincidence.

George, I frequently move a model and all of a sudden I rediscover it and the models around it...it's like getting a new model all over again.

A beautiful car, outstanding color combo but I was put off by the non-factory, extra wide whitewalls, aka "gangster whites."  Shame on DM. Excellent pics by John Merritt as we would expect.

Glad to say I have this fin-tabulous Vegas Turquoise Coupe of the Ville, one of five DM '59 Caddys in my collection. The magnificent 1959 Cadillac: the new Standard of the World in excellence and distinction. Choice without compromise. In its own realm of motoring majesty. The universal symbol of achievement.  Forget Buick. For 1959, wouldn't you really rather have a Cadillac?

Considering I thought the '59 Buick to be ugly as sin.... absolutely!
