In 1955, if you drove a classic black Fleetwood, you were either a Wall Street banker or a funeral director. I remember as a kid I was fascinated by the Caddy's "Dagmar" bumper guards... you can do your own Freudian analysis there. I waited for this black with brown interior LE, as the pink Elvis edition reminded be of the Pepto-Bismol my mother fed me as a kid.

I forgot that this Cadillac is a limited edition, mine's #1438. I have all 3 colors.
Great close up shots, Rich.

A beautiful Cadillac model. Great photos.
I have all three of the colors, my favorite is the two-tone green one.

I have the green version but would prefer the black, has more 'verve' to it. Thanks for the pix Rich.

There's a Godfather that'll make you a deal you can't refuse. 
I have the black version and love it. I even gave it the license plates from the movie. Mine's #844, I picked it up at a toy show in Detroit for $70.
