I just wanted to share my excitement in finishing the restoration of my 1959 Limousine.  I purchased the car in June of 2008 and completed the project just a few weeks ago.  I must also say "thank you" to all those from the club that helped me with advice and technical assistance.

I have many more pictures at my photobucket account, http://s849.photobucket.com/albums/ab60/59fleetwood75/1959%20Cadillac%20Fleetwood%20Seventy-five%20Limousine/

wow, great scott!  what a limo !  makes me want to donn my best bibs and tucker and go for a ride . i.e. (put on my best bib overalls and tuck my shirt in...a saying from the south)...
oh how G. M. could seeminly do anything on wheels ! as the quote of old says about G.M. and this country..."as G.M. goes.....so goes the country".
this automobile to me is the epitome of "excess"...i always was drawn to unique items....oh, how i love this country ...even with all her faults. i've  never ceased to be amazed by the people who used yo build such works of art.!  great job...enjoy and drive with dignity.....T.
