Nice car and lucky lady!  I also like the rocket container you created for the wedding shown on your blog!  The translation on your blog did not come out very good, but I thought this portion was interesting:

" Cadillac Wedding cars. 07.04.2015 was marked on the calendar for one and a half years ago, the final hääpäiväksemme with Minna and it was to live according to the Cadillac with respect to the project." 

I'm not sure how that was supposed to translate, but "live according to the Cadillac and respect the project" probably should have been included in my wedding vows; my wife and I met because she  heard I was restoring a '59 Fleetwood  and was intrigued.  Fortunately, 25 years later she is still willing to live according to the Cadillac, and she still respects the project!

Hi David,

Actually the translation goes like this:

"Six years and thousands of man-hours. It is in its simplicity, the formula, which was carried out dream of own -59 Cadillac Wedding car.
07.04.2015 was marked on the calendar for one and a half years ago for the final wedding day with Minna and I. Cadillac project was to proceed accordingly. Car project was thus forced to be completed by the date. Fortunately, everything was done nicely."


But, as it can be red from the bad translation, basically my fiancé did and still does respect the Cadillac project. In the end, she was waiting the whole six years to get married because I was told that the car will be our wedding car. So all the respect for my lovely wife for that. She had said that if she would have knew how big and long project the car has been she wouldn't never let me to buy it in first place.  ;D
