i got one too. that starter sounds sooo familiar. everybody goes bat-shit for the '59's, but i like the 58's best...so much chrome. mine was a shed-find years ago...green Fleetwood. the CdV is super sporty...the coral is nice. get ready for people to go nuts over it when you get it on the road. i'd say, fix the rust and whatever is broken, and then enjoy it. my rear floor plans are pretty thin, but the rest is just a great look with 65 years of use on it, so i drive as-is...pretty close to same shape as this pink one
Just a killer find. Your buddy scored big time! She's in super good shape to. Crazy how just that one quarter panels has rust but the rest is all good. I wonder if something got on it at one time. Those headlights lit up reminded me of Christine lol. She's one badass rides good luck to your friend hopefully he keeps it and drives the hell out of it. Take it easy brother 👍🏻
I had a pink '58 series 62 sedan back almost 50 years ago in this same color. Coral may have been Cadillac's name for it. I've seen many other 58s in this same color, apparently it was popular in this era.
I have my parents 58 cadillac series 62 sedan. They bought it in 1960 from a Doctor friend of theirs. I was 1 year old. It's Prestwick gray. A dark gray, with a 2 tone silver interior. It has power windows, wonderbar radio, power antenna, and rare FACTORY AC. Grew up with this car. Mom gave it to me in 1982. Lifelong Southern California car, its in good shape, and on the road.😊
Nice find and it has factory fog lights. Push in on the tuning knob and see if the antenna goes up. Put some oil down the vacuum pump for better wiper operation.
Enjoyed the video, but it could have been better if you didn't cover the last and only proper run of the engine with loud music so we couldn't hear it.
Mr. B. Here ! 👀😎👍. I have a 1958 super 88 and wish my looked like that ! If that where mind I would clean it up and put it back to OEM . 🎄☃️❄️🎄☃️❄️. Merry Christmas!
Good job, those could be problematic if you left them for 4 months when they were new! They were notorious for having electrical leaks. They needed to be driven and love to be driven! The 58s were my favorites of all of the Cadillacs. My Great Grand Dad drove a Fleetwood, and my Great Grand Mother had the Eldorado Brougham. Both were ordered from GM in gunmetal with white tops. Funny story: They moved into a brand new house, and the first week, my great-grandmother poked two holes in the front of the garage with her dagmar bumpers! Even after giving up driving, she ensured they were kept in excellent condition. Most people probably don't remember, but you had to fill them up with "Ethyl," which was premium leaded gas. They must have gotten something like 8 blocks to the gallon!
Find some General Motors keys, olds, chevy, Pontiac rear deck or ignition. I had a Pontiac, my dad had an olds. My key worked in his olds ignition! Give a few a try!
I had a couple like that back in the day.
I had a 58 coupe de ville , loved it. Miss it!
That's an awesome find! Awesome to see that it started right up.
Agreed brother
Man that's just the best feeling to get an old one running again. Good work!!!!
It definitely is. This one didn't take much. He definitely lucked out.

Nice rosewood pink.
I have a 56 chevy. My friend bought a 39 chevy coupe for an old lady. My key fit the 39! He was happy!
Great find!! Looks like a series 62.
That paint will clean up nice with a wash and polish! Repair that quater blend the paint and you got a siiiiiiiickkk car!

DO NOT SMOKE A STINKING CIGAR WHITE DRIVING THAT CADILLAC!

Sorry. Thank you for at least checking it out. I'll definitely keep that in mind the next time.

No follow up video?
He sold it
Put Hot plugs and A cell Cap and Rotors in it!Gas MPG will go sky high!No Cheap tune up stuff!!
It will burn rubber like a Mother!!
I wonder what Elvis presley would say about it?
New cars now ain't worth SHIT! Too much plastic in them!!
Original pink Cadillacs were special order you should run the thing see who owned it maybe raise the value !
Cars are about the drive not the stupid resale number
@@SnepperStepTVDamn... Maybe it could be worth more and he could sell it and get a nicer one...
