This car came into Chris’s possession through three years of tenacious hunting. “I wanted a Cadillac that was gold, a coupe, and a DeVille. After three years I’d found one in Portland, Oregon,” Chris told us. He continued, “The guy that sold it to me bought my plane ticket to fly up there and I drove it back to SoCal–this was all on [the previous] owners’ word that it would make it back,” Chris chuckled.



With only 40,000 original miles the car was in well kept condition. Furthermore, coming up on a car that could handle a full coastal cruise and one that met the aesthetic demands Chris was hoping for sounds like a deal that was worth the three year wait. While Chris did make a point to state that he didn’t consider himself a Cadillac guy, this particular model and year was something that had always peaked his interest. What he got was the perfect foundation to reach his dream vision of the ’66 he’d been hunting for.



Chris went on to give us a breakdown of some of the gold cruiser’s details, “It’s got ’61 caps, ’61 wheels, and wide whitewalls. Me and my buddy Max Fish, we painted the whole car in his garage. It has all original interior and a couple fun things inside, but that’s about it.”



For such an eye catching ride, Chris kept the Cadillac close to its original state–barring the upholstery, new paint, and lowered stance. It is definitely a testament to the design prowess that Cadillacs have maintained throughout the decades.



But that still left us wondering, what was Chris’s favorite modification or aspect of the car? “There’s really not a lot of mods on the car, but my favorite part is obviously the roof because it’s the most eye-catching and it took the most amount of time and work,” Chris explained. He continued, “It took an entire day just to lay out those patterns.”
