Was back in NYC for the long weekend and spotted this '65 De Ville. At least I think it's a De Ville, since as far as I can tell this model was identical to the Eldorado of that year except for that little chrome line down the side.

Same engine, same Turbo-hydramatic trans, everything. And people think the CT# naming scheme will make the Cadillac lineup confusing...

Interesting '64 Worlds' Fair plates on this one, though.

Also saw this. You're welcome for the nightmares.

Not just any Lebaron, but a post-facelift 1995 convertible in fucking .... Orchid Metallic. Barf.

Cadillac stacked headlights are my absolute favorite.

Yeah. Awesome stuff. They remind me of the Ford Galaxie from around that time.

Yup, the 65-66 Eldo were just a trim on the de Ville. They were stop-gaps while they were working on the front drive Eldo which was introduced in 67. They also had horrible sales for that reason.
