PIC: The "abandoned '59 Caddy" of Harley Earl
I never get tired of articles like this one on early design proposals for the 1959 Cadillac.

Really fascinating stuff, John ! I also like reading about and seeing images of such forgotten and abandoned automobile projects, especially from that era.

Front fender and door trim resembles the '58 Olds.

Well, considering what they were proposing before seeing the 57 Chryslers and what they were eventually to come up and produce, I guess we can be forever grateful to the 57 Chryslers for the cars of the 60s and probably beyond.

I thought the same thing, John.

+1 The 58 Olds was not a great design to incorporate into anything!

Curbside Classics is a gem. I visit every couple of days.

That was my immediate impression, too.
