My patrol and commodore look the same in the local shopping center carpark... actually Mitz 380's barely fit... that's what you get for the council demanding the developers put in extra parking spaces..  ::) ::) ::)

Ya just gotta love, old Cadillac's and their reliability.

This is three separate responses from mates in America at the moment during their "big Freeze/Cold Snap.

1. Yeah my main cars are a '61 Chevy with 327/700R4 trans and good old '66 Corvair but neither one wanted to play nice this week so "Walter" my '64 series 62 coupe got the contract. Supposed to warm into the 20's next week so I should be able to give my other GM rides a chance to shine. Nothing like driving a BIG, HEAVY classic on icy roads though.

2. You are reminding me that the 64 Caddy was the most reliable car we owned when it came to always starting in the cold temps when the other cars were dead in the water
 She would always start and run

3. North Central Indiana- average high since Xmas has been 3 degrees F.  Wind chills average around -10 to -30 F. So cold my wife's 2014 CTS would not start Tuesday and we had to take the '64 Cad Coupe to work.  Hey it was either do that or walk five miles each way in the cold.  Matter of fact, I have been driving it all week because there has been great difficulty getting anything else on the lot going.  Lots of stranded motorists along the way, roads made of solid ice and snow that won't melt with more on the way.  Good times!

No idea, but someone does. Had 36 people bid when i looked. Makes me wonder what the HK Monaro shell that we sold to the scrappy, after pulling the motor and gearbox out, would be worth :'(. Just wanted to put it into a Hilux  8). 20/20 hindsight, the things we do at 18.
