I've got you under my skin. Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. Pre war Caddy rag tops in this condition are as rare as hen's teeth! Stunning example!
Congratulations man you got it I am so proud that you got it that’s one of my favorite Fourseason songs absolutely love the background singers sometimes I just follow them because once you hear it you can’t unhear it One day when I get some audio equipment I would love to isolate the background singers and just play the background track because they switch places with Frankie and sing lead it’s only from a couple bars after the bridge but it’s super cool none the less..
Be sure to tune in tomorrow for the next episode 1941 Buick Special touring sedan
@@What.its.like. How can you live in "Joisey" and not know the four seasons! lol
"Gee, our old LaSalle ran great. Those were the days..."
'EDITH!'.....'Ohh Aaaaachie'
Take this to Pebble Beach during car week in the summer!!!!! You’ll win, and probably literally double or triple the price!! This car is a beautiful example of Americana!!!!!!
Totally agree if it was mine I would drive it every day
What a beauty. Those door handles are weapons!
I know right
Those were the days!
If I ever have access to a time machine going back in time to a 30s Cadillac, Packard Lincoln Chrysler dealership is pretty high on the list of places to see if I could go back in time..
Just another fantastic treat ! Well done
Thank you so much I’m glad you dig this episode I was so nervous about releasing it because of the series 60/series 70 debacle I originally wrote the script as it was a series 70 car but then after looking at pictures of what a series 70 car is it didn’t match up with the pictures that I saw last night but this morning it did look like a series 70 car series 60 Is shorter and has a different grill and slightly different interior than the series 70 but the car in the video looks like it’s a series 60 just has a different grill because the interior is like a series 60 interior plus on top of all of that this is a coach built era where are you could essentially get whatever you want so I just figured I’d leave it the way it is because I like the way that everything flowed in this episode had really nice flow.. and I didn’t want to give that up essentially but yeah the jury is still out I don’t know if it’s a series 60 or a series 70 car it’s advertised as a Fleetwood body and that throws a whole Nother bone into the mix because Cadillac had bodies by Fleetwood but if you type in to google Cadillac Fleetwood from 1936 V12 and the V16 show up not the v8
I almost fainted when you said, “V16.” Imagine! And to think I was impressed when the salesman at O’Gara showed me a Bentley Speed with a measly 12 cylinders! Great video!
Thank you the v16 was ohv I believe it was good for 185 hp which is nuts
Just a fyi the hinged visor’s are so that you can swing them up above the windshield frame for air deflection with the top down, just a cool extra in my opinion, nice original caddy thanks for bringing this to us Jay
Wow Jay, such a BEAUTY! Thanks Jay!
This car was stunning as was the competition
3:23 That Olds looks sweet.
I know that was another car that I never knew existed I kind of sort of wanna go find one to do for the channel I’m finding all kinds of 30s cars that I really adore
The sad thing or good thing depending on what perspective you look at if I wait 10 or 15 years I could probably buy any single prewar car that I could ever want because all the people that love those cars are moving on it’s sad that’s why I made this channel because I want I can’t be the only person that likes this stuff.. 1936 Bugatti type 57 just sold a Kissimmee for $577,000 those cars went for millions a couple years ago.. It’s just crazy
I'm 1985 I rented a 36 LaSalle Touring Sedan limousine for my then wife's 21 birthday.
Was a nice car!
That’s awesome how did it ride/drive I need to find some LaSalle’s as well as the other companion makes offered by GM in the 30s =)
@@What.its.like. rode like a dream. Got to go to a Hollywood restaurant and a little tour of stars homes
Wow that sounds like a dream =)
@@What.its.like. we were chauffeured that nite so no idea how it drove
Aerodynamic baby! Great video Jay!
I was just telling a friend of mine yesterday I don’t know what I like more fins or fenders fins being 1950s fenders being 30s
These reviews are great keep them coming
=) glad you dig
A non Mono block V8 was cast as 2 pieces then welded together to make 1 block. Making a mold to cast a mono block were very costly back then which is why most 8 cylinders were straight 8s. And also why cars then had very long hoods to house the long 8 cyl. engines.
Great video Jay!…love your 2023 plan to include snapshots further back into automotive history!!...really developing an appreciation for these 1920’s, 1930’s and 1940’s vehicles!!!
Me too Idk know what my favorite era is anymore it was the 50s but I really love the Art Deco period with the curves and fenders. There are some great cars out there that get missed or over looked this channel we are going to give them the coverage they deserve =)
I think my grandpa had the touring sedan model of the 1936 Cadillac.
Buick is my favorite!
Really enjoyed this Cadillac review. 👏Wow, well made. "Not very safe but way cool door handle" 😂You can do pros and cons just as well as a book, Jay, with your vast knowledge‼
Thank you so much for the positive vibes... it’s lots of research that goes into each episode I’m not an expert per say just love classic cars especially the ones off the beaten path =)
Jay you do a great job of reviewing these cars!
Thank you =) it means the world to me I’m just trying to keep the information to these cars out there and relevant.. One day I would love to compare an art deco Cadillac to a Cadillac of today
What a real classic car. Beautiful styling. When I look at that hood ornament I have to wonder how many of those got busted off back in the day when they made these cars? I can see people wanting to bust those off. Much like they bust off the Mercedes-Benz hood ornaments.
I never got why people busted hood ornaments off it’s just like a destruction of property never got why people did that.. It’s kind of sort of like going over to somebody’s house that has a bunch of Christmas lights on and destroying their decorations I never got why people have to be like that
GREAT VIDEO BEAUTIFUL CARS DO YOU EVER SEE A 1952 LINCOLN CAPRI
I’ve been looking for Lincoln’s I’ve only seen a hand few of Lincoln capris
Another great review! Enjoy all you do.
Glad you like this one =) they seem to be getting better and better the flow is really starting to come into its own
My dad schooled me about lasalle many years ago.
1930's style for miles!
Love the shapes and more utilitarian features like the way the visors work and the hinges on the glove box. Less refined but much refined for the time, I assume.
I drove a 1947 Lincoln once. It was great, that over the hood view.
Thanks for the previews recently.
Thank you so much for sharing that insight what was the 47 Lincoln like V12?
I’m going to do the previews for upcoming episodes when I can I’m going to try to do as many episodes as I can a week between five or seven episode a week it’s winter time I don’t really much care to build furniture in the cold lol I have enough pre-recorded contact to do that for probably a week or two before I have to go out and shoot some more but I’ve been looking I really want to cover some Nash I have enough pre-recorded contact to do that for probably a week or two before I have to go out and shoot some more but I’ve been looking I really want to cover some Nash Hudson studebaker and packard
All good.
Thank you!
I don't know the engine size of the Lincoln. I assumed it was an eight.
It had hydraulic power windows though. I was delivering it to a classic car dealer.
The owner needed to sell it back.
It’s very futuristic. You can see the influence from Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon. Not sure what came first. The aerospace industry is evident. It is only comparable to the Skoda from this era in terms of slipstream. I never knew about Bugatti losing in depreciation. Leno must have made a loss on his. I love Cadillacs from any era, they are streets ahead of the competition.
Beautiful old Caddy! No clue about that song.
I had to make it harder because everybody was getting it the moment the video dropped =)
Looks like more room in the rumble seats than in the trunk.
I know right =)
Nice review of this '36 Cadillac. Always enjoy your prospective on the cars you showcase. I too love long flowing lines of older cars.
Thank you =)

That one was it was so nice that I didn’t even get in it.. I did the whole first person thing from the outside of the car just put my hand on the steering wheel
In the 1970s Mercury sold a midsize model called the Zephyr and was a twin of the Ford Fairmont. Perhaps you could find one of these and do a video of it. Thanks.
I will totally look for those in the future.. I most definitely want to do a 1940 Lincoln zephyr as well as all the years that came before it
In my day the Cadillac Series 60 was the top-of-the-line offering-the deluxe model referred to as the "Series 60:Special Fleetwood"
This one was really hard to research I wasn’t I’m not I still am not 100% sure if it’s a series 60 or a series 70 because it looks like a series 70 until you get to be interior then it doesn’t.. and that was the other confusing but is Series 60 for this generation of Cadillac is basement model
I noticed that when you were opening the hood the emblem on the side said “V-8 Fleetwood”.
That was another confusing bit because when looking up 1936 fleetwood v12 and V16 Show up
You should do a review of that clam shell 70's GM station wagon and this Cadillac is absolutely beautiful car!!!
I definitely wanna make a point to do way more wagons this year =) I honestly can’t wait for spring
Jay, this is a beautiful car! I would like to see a review of a Terraplane when you can. Thanks!
you have no idea how bad I want to do a Hudson Terraplane truck or a 1937 Studebaker express those are my two favorite trucks of all time the Studebaker is my personal favorite
Max Motive has a 47 Hudson terraplaine truck I didn’t do a video with it because it’s modified I try to make sure they get cars or trucks is close to original condition as possible I don’t really care so much is the engine I just hate it when people put the stupid small steering wheels and change all of the gauges. Like it’s almost insulting because for instance you see a beautiful Packard car looks absolutely stunning you get up to it and it has a 1985 GM steering wheel column in it which dad isn’t the most attractive steering wheel column anyway it’s pretty hideous.. and when I walk away after seeing that one like why?? Power steering is overrated.. lol
But yeah to answer your question I’ve been looking I’ve been looking for a lot of cars really want to hit early 50s Nash
Beautiful cars, greetings from Allende NL Mexico
totally agree greetings from Western Pennsylvania USA
In the 1930s I don’t think they were having too many thoughts about “safety “ with such things as those door handles that looked like spears. 😮
Those doorhandles were terrifying like if somebody had a beef with you or something they could just take those doorhandles off and Do some serious damage
Stunning is the word to describe this car, from every angle and detail! I really love the look of the convertible, but I'm sure the other models with more luxurious interiors would be just as awesome! 😎
I hope I did this car justice it was absolutely gorgeous but so was the competition out of all of the cars that it competed with I really want to do a Chrysler airflow.. honestly would really like to drive a Chrysler airflow but honestly all of the cars from this era art deco era are just gorgeous Lincoln zephyr is gorgeous the Chrysler airflow Oldsmobile L series that was another gorgeous car that I never knew existed. =)
Totally Agree! The designers offered up so much, great era of automobiles, paving the way for more great ones that followed.
Viking only lasted 2 years. It wasn't a good seller despite it's advancements.
The lower trunk is spooky! 💀
Nice "Banjo" steering wheel.
I want to look for a Viking To do this year I’ve never seen one
@@What.its.like. Might be hard to track down. I wish you luck. I only know of it because i have an Oldsmobile history book that covers the first Olds - 1988.
Hey Jay, I don't know if this is a series 60 or series 70, this Cadillac is gorgeous whatever it is!!! The hood ornament alone is stunning!!! This car is a real beauty any way you look at it!!! Thanks for sharing another exciting video!!! 👍👍🙂
Thank you so much I was sweating Bullets when I released this video because I hate passing off false information all of the information is well researched I just don’t know if it’s a series 60 or series 70 and to complicate things even more it’s listed for sale as a Fleetwood if you type in google Fleetwood what is the most expensive body car the Cadillac offered but this can’t be that because this has a V-8 in it.. don’t get me wrong the body could be still me by Fleetwood but not sold as a Fleetwood that’s what makes it even more confusing because Fleetwood bodies were generally be v12 and v16 Just very confusing I hate passing off false information I want these to be as accurate as possible. But I’m finding out some information just gets lost the time
But glad you dig this episode =)
Hey Jay, I'd be curious to know how much the sellers of the cars you cover are asking, and what the current market value is for them! I hope to one day be a Custodian/Caretaker of some of these old beauties.
I will link what they’re asking for this car, honestly if I had the money I would buy this car their not asking a fortune for it it’s a affordable prewar car and sometimes prewar cars are super expensive
If I do an individuals car sometimes I will do the whole Haggerty thing and tell you what the car is worth I don’t do that for dealerships..

@@What.its.like. That makes sense; thank you!!
What would this go for as far as price goes?
This car sold I don’t remember exactly what it sold for..
This is a 70 not a 60. I own a 1936 70 convertible coupe. Looks like someone did a restoration of the interior in the late 50s or 60s and did a poor/low cost job, but hey - it was just a used car then. Fleetwood made all the bodies for the 70/75 series, Fisher for the 60/65. The 60 also has a wheelbase 10"s shorter the the 70 and it lost out on the storage space behind the seats. 60 had the smaller V8 also.
Thank you so much it wasn’t labeled what it was so I tired to figure out the model and that was harder than I thought thank you for that information =)
@@What.its.like. Your welcome, I really enjoy your videos and the enthusiasm you have for the cars. It is hard to tell the diff between a 60 and a 70 unless you live with one!
Thank you so much i’m glad you dig this channel =)
Here's a piece of useless trivia, the '36 Cadillac was the first American car to use Phillips head screws.
That’s awesome never knew that =) thank you so much for sharing that trivia
