I grew up in Leyland where the trucks came from. One of my school mate's dad drove the much more down to earth Leyland version... or at least he said he did.

Hey Jeepers, I went to a car show in Wodonga on the weekend and they had a nice looking 63 Fleetwood Caddy Limo which was for sale for $39000. I took a photo but I'm struggling to load it from Imgur which has changed to what I was used to, stay tuned.

Actually -operator error

Series 75 Fleetwood, they have about 20 or 22 inches extra in them over the normal Fleetwood like ours.

They only ever build around 900 in a year and they are a shocker to park.

They are built on the 1960 platform, so have the older windscreen/roof line and some stuff like that.

Well google failed me.
Thinking its a one off custom.
Has some styling similarities to a Buick Streamliner though.

I was thinking it was an XK120  Jag based Custom ..    a 1950 Coupe mixed with a roadster  ..

Turns out the car in the video was custom built by the legendary Rick Dore.

More photos on his FB page.

His custom builds are stunning.
