Holy WTF!?!!!

Does it come with a jacuzzi in the trunk that's populated by the Swedish bikini team?

$75,000 more than any on the market

That car looks stunning. Hagerty's shows '62 Eldorado Converts in #3 condition, which I personal don't think it's that great a condition, at $70,000. So if this one's pristine the $125,000 price is probably pretty close to what it'll still for.

I guess, but there's different models. So maybe start looking at different models. It's really the body style I like.

I'm sure y'all are experts, but the one thing I've learned about old cars? Buy the most stunning, best condition, most original, one you can find. You'll recoup the premium when you sell. (The trick is to ensure you're not buying a polished up turd.)

Yup, I've been restoring vehicle's for years.

Restoring a 1968 Porsche 911L Targa

Porsche looks great. Early 60's Cadillacs are beautiful, unless you have a really strong preference for one year over another I would keep the net wide and just look for the right car wrt color/condition/etc. 1961-64 Caddys are among the smallest and sleekest they ever made. "Small" is a relative term but compared to '59/60s or '65/66s they look smaller. I absolutely love Cadillacs from the mid-20th century.

I just watched a good noir flick on Amazon from 1950, "711 Ocean Drive," the main characters all have new Cadillacs and they are stunning.
