Big, bold, and brash!!  These were high years for Cadillac, and, yes, it seemed to be the "Standard of the World."  Packard died, Imperial remained primarily a senior Chrysler, and foreign cars were still just that.   Well, Rolls Royce had a whole universe of its own, but that's another world.   Thanks for sharing your fine collection, John.  Now I'll just retreat into my Packards and think about what might have been.

Probably would still be the light blue one. I have always liked the color combination of blue & white.
