  • Gracias por excelente video. El Cadillac serie 62 de 4 puertas que muestran en el video (verde con techo blanco), tiene cja Dyna Flow, lo que indica que fue fabricado entre Septiembre y Diciembre de 1953. La planta donde GM producía las cajas Hydra Matic se incendió en Agosto de 1953.
  • I’m sorry to leave a negative but…this was a bit of hyperbole. This car doesn’t need such over-the-top descriptions, some of which were not true. For instance: the power seats did not offer each passenger the ability to select a position that was most comfortable for them; unless you meant each driver, but a driver is not a passenger. The driver was the only person that had this luxury, and besides, a bench seat made that statement an impossibility. The heating and ventilation could not give optimal comfort regardless the weather unless one had the optional air conditioning. Another mistake is the non-existent wood dash/interiors. Unless I’m mistaken, there was no wood used in the ‘53 62 Series; possibly in the Sixty Specials, but not the 62vSeries. And finally, the sound system with one speaker was rudimentary at best. All these errors left me thinking that this was compile by A.I., descriptions that could apply to any luxury car, well, any luxury car post-1965. There were so many repeated descriptions that the video could have been reduced in length by at least a third. And the generalizations did not stop with the car itself. When relating that the car was used by certain actors/actresses, politicians, etc., not one person was named, which would not be that difficult to research. I love the ‘53s, they are my favorite of the 1950s, but I don’t like them misrepresented because that calls into question all the other accolades that the car so richly deserves.
  • Never a fan of the '53 Caddy... or any '53 GM car. They seemed old fashioned compared to streamlined lower profile FoMoCo cars or even Packards, Kaisers, or Studebakers. A Merc or Lincoln were sexier. Note how GM streamlined the Olds, Buick, and Caddy in '54 while the Chevy and Pontiac retained dull old fashioned profiles
