I’m guessing the same one. They made 5 I think 4 were destroyed when the USAF bombed the warehouse they were in. This one was somewhere else.

Great old cruisers, unfortunately dinosaurs nowadays. Always liked the first generation Eldorado, especially with the hideaways.

LS swap.

 

[Nassau65]

No, keep its original 429ci 7Ltr fuel guzzling monster motor. It’s a cruiser after all, not a racer. Just cruise along looking real good.

I'm guessing with all that weight an LS engine would really need re-configuring and perhaps a 'huffer' to give sufficient torque to comfortably power that Caddi?

 

[Nassau65]

It certainly was a weighty beast. The front and rear bumpers weighed enough

I’d have thought a Tahoe would weigh more than a 67 Caddy.

 

[Nassau65]

Just looked, 4500lbs. 2 imperial tons.

Quite a bit more according to its specs. It’s not a SUV, it’s a tank

This beauty is coming up for auction at BJ Houston

428CJ motor.

 

[teamzr1]

Wonder if anyone remembers the 1956 Impala Corvette ?

 

[Nassau65]

No, don’t think I’ve ever seen it before.

My uncle Al had this 1933 Caddy, I never understood why it had to be bulletproof
