A great and must read article: 1959 cadillac for sale

Q: Would the value of a 1959 Cadillac increase soon?
I’m planning on purchasing a 1959 Cadillac and then selling it in the future to make a good profit. How much do you think it would be worth in the future? Do you think $10,000 would be enough to buy a 59 Caddy? Sources?

A: your in the wrong business!
very very unlikly that you will make profit from any cars…
if you consider that if you purchase a car for 10k…lets say in 20 years its now worth 20k.
well you just paid 20yrs of insurance…maintnance…storage.. etc.. so your measly 10k over a 20 yr period doesnt look so good. if you sell lemonade outside for 0.50c over the next 20 years…you will make more profit that way.

i dont mean to offend you either…im just trying to show you..

Q: where do i find the engine number in my cadillac 1959?
I have an 1959 cadillac and I need to find the “engine” number just like how a car has a VIN number i need to somehow find the engine number. no stupid comments please.

thanks for answers.

A: I don’t know but your question brings back old memories for me. In 1959 a friend of mine’s father bought an paid cash for a new 1959 Cadillac. The total cost was $5,700.00. How times have changed. The 1959 Cadillac was really popular with its fins and everything…

Q: What would you do if you saw a 1959 Cadillac and a 1959 Chevrolet Impala parked next to each other?
What would your response be? Would it bring back any memories?

A: The Cadillac would say to the Chevrolet ” What’s got your fins down?”

Q: Would I still be pulled over if my 1959 Cadillac/Chevrolet had a terrible exhaust leak?
If a massive cloud of exhaust was coming from my old car would I still be entitled to be pulled over by you coppers? Can you really report my solidly pre-smog vehicles?

A: If you’re talking about excessive vehicle emissions where your car’s engine is badly worn or out of tune and is belching out a big cloud of smoke and choking everybody behind you, a cop will likely give you a hard time regardless of what year your car was manufactured. Actual policy varies by state and county. For instance, in California even classic automobiles must comply with strict emissions standards. The fact is that even a 1959 era car engine without modern emissions controls shouldn’t produce much smoke if it’s in good condition. And, really, how many cars do you still see out on the road that are actually that old anyway? This just isn’t a significant problem.

Q: What would happen if you took a 1959 Cadillac to a GM dealer for repairs?
What would they do? Would they understand what that strange object on top of the intake manifold or would they search for where the engine computer is? Would they wonder if its even an automobile or would they simply scratch their heads?
what that strange object on top of the intake manifold is*

A: I worked for a cadi dealer for several years and we had a customer who had a 1956 cadi. We did all the work on it. If someone brought in something your company did not work on any more would you know what to do with it. Stop being so narrow minded. A lot of techs own old cars themselves and are well educated. Take your grease monkey mentality elsewhere and give us the respect we deserve.

Q: What would you do if you called a mobile mechanic and they came in a 1959 Cadillac or Chevrolet Impala?
What would go through your mind? What assumptions would be drawn? Would you think ill or good of them?

A: Wouldn’t really bother me what car they arrived in as long as they were good at what they were doing, although driving such an old car might actually make me trust them more, ‘cos obviously if they are able to keep such an old car still running now then they must be good at the job.

My friend drives round in a series 1 Land Rover and I always trust her when asking questions about my modern day Nissan Note, the main reason I trust her more than other people is because I know that if she knows a lot about keeping very old Land Rovers on the road then she must be really good at how the insides of cars work.

Unlike these modern technicians that just plug a computer in and go “oh computer says you got no problem so nothing I can do”.

Q: Does anyone make a fiberglass body for the 1958 or 1959 Cadillac?
I want to drive my own Caddy but can’t afford an original. I have seen fiberglass replicas of the 49 Merc, Model T, Model A, 55 Chevy and 41 Willys. Do you know if anyone makes a replica of the Caddy?

A: they are all custom made by specialty body shops. good luck.

Q: Where can I buy a 1959 Cadillac?
I need an estimate for these prices in Manatee county,Florida:

Car itself
insurance
MPG
repairs
.I’m 16 so what do you think the insurance would cost. I’m planning on taking drivers ed next year to reduce the cost. Do I have to pass drivers ed to get the reduced cost or do I get it reduced just for taking it?

A: You could try autotrader.com or e-bay for one. Or search for a classic car dealer on google. Insurance will be lower than a newer car unless you have the Cadillac appraised for higher by the insurance company. Repairs will be constant unless it has had alot of rebuilding prior to you purchasing it. Mpg depends on the engine.

A: The ‘48 is worth some money if it’s in good shape…..

Q: How do I put 1959 Cadillac tail lights onto my 1960 Impala? Is there a conversion kit? Or bracket I can order?

A: I don’t think there is anything you can buy. You will just have to make it or have someone make it for you. Sorry

Q: I am looking for 1959 cadillac convertible parts for conversion on my sedan?

Q: My son inhered a 1959 Cadillac hearse do you need a Special drivers license?
It was my Grandfathers he bought in the 70’s restored it in the 90’s it runs great he collected cars, My son would like to kept it

A: As a historic vehicle, all he needs is a normal driver’s license. If he was to use it to transport caskets, some states have different license and tag requirements

Q: Can I buy a 1959 Cadillac?
The 1959 Cadillac has always been my favorite car, even since I was a child. I always dreamed of buying one. The problem is, when are they going to disappear altogether and I won’t be able to buy one or when is it going to be obsolete? I’m afraid that in the future I could never buy one and drive one because it will be too obsolete by that time.

A: Don’t worry about that at all! The 1959 Cadillac is arguably the most desirable Cadillac ever made, so a lot of the Coupe Devilles are either restored or kept in good shape. They can be pretty expensive. So if you really want one, than you’ll have to get some dough first!

This is a great site for collector car shopping, and you can get an idea of what the market is on those cars:

Q: Is the 1959 Cadillac the king of all Cadillacs?
Do you doubt its majestic glory?

A: Cadillac has made several cars you could call the king over the years but a 59 would likely be the the world wide icon.

The Eldorado Brougham’s were among if not the most expensive cars you could buy at the time and fairly limited production.

Q: how much to paint a 1959 Cadillac 4 door ? ?
My son is doing a budget to paint his ‘59 Cadillac Four Door. He will prep it for paint. We need an round number for the budget. Thanks.

A: You can get a mako paintjob for 300 bucks… it will only last 2-3 years though. You get what you pay for. If you want it to last a lifetime it can cost up to 5k+
