Cadillac, then & now

Robert Gordon with Link Wray: (from one of the best albums ever invented, Fried Fish Special)

I've got that on a CD with another LP they cut, played it in the car earlier, man those hep cats can rock and roll.

Definitely not!

As I was motorvating over the hill, I saw Maybellene in a coupe de ville...

I saw her from the corner when she turned and doubled back/ I started walkin' toward her coffee coloured Cadillac

That's a great line from a great song.

Are the good old days 1970s yank Muscle Cars.
The beer wasn't flat, and the Huddersfield Girls where Hot Hot Hot.
My 351 Cleveland, got around 11-12 Mpg one of my mates had a big block.
That got 6-7 Mpg, forget about the pension get out there and Party.

Now reformed I am a tea-total, and belong to the Biscuit Appreciation Society!

He reckoned to get about 8mpg out of it.

That's why petrol stations tell you to turn off the ignition, otherwise you'd never fill it.

A proper pimp-mobile! My neighbour had one. Inside the bonnet was mostly air.

Room to work on it. I had a Dodge Coronet, had space to stand next to the engine, and a starter button in the engine compartment.

At least it's not a Citation, a badge Chevy later used, but as a Cadillac Citation, it was this-

From whence borne, no traveler returneth.


I went to a university with a large mortuary science program. Caddy catalogs were in abundance. Hearses, flower cars, limos, all made special order to the trade.
