"Priest" is like the main character in the movie "Superfly". He too has a nasty Cadillac as his ride in the movie. The movie was made in 1972. Google it. You can watch it online. Click the link below to listen to my theme music by Curtis Mayfield http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrHezTLex2s It opens in a new window so you can listen to it in the background and enjoy the Caddy "Golden One" Eldorado.

I'm looking for used parts to get her running again. Hit me up if you know of some good sites. I have a Left front intake manifold to put on. I also need the right side. Turns out that the car on has 1 intake according to a viewer of my page. So, what I really needed were exhaust manifolds. Both are at the machine shop now. When I get them back I was told to have the heads done too before putting the manifolds on. We'll see. More to come. Possibly need a transmission. We'll see once I get the 500 cu. inch engine right. She's ready to break necks again on the streets.
Decided to keep it as a classic: Half of the stuff I don’t even know what you call it
*Mayo whitewalls
*Original Spoke rims, hubs and classic Cadillac center piece (I know you want to see 26”s, can’t do that)
*Power windows
*Power seats
*Joint has a wind up clock in the dash
*8-Track Pioneer Player with 8 track tapes. Can’t wait to hear the hissing sounds LOL
*Some kind of chrome S Swirl looking thing on the back window
*A chromed out lip fender thing a ma jig over the windshield
*Huge Grill
*Climate controlled A/C
*Some kind of freakin air system that raises the back of the car up when you put air in it like a tire.
*White Leather seats
*Red carpeting and door trim
*Wood Grain from the front to the back seats (crazy)
*illuminated Cadillac symbol lights in the back seat area
*Trunk can fit about 10 bodies in it LOL
*V-8 500 Cu. Engine and a whole lot of history
Check out the grill. You can cook ribs on that.
