Cowboy Cadillac – Craigslist Find

I can’t take credit for this it was tweeted, and on the BCAS earlier today, but here is is in all its glory a Cowboy Cadillac that seems to have driven thru the J.C.Whitney warehouse attracting accessories. I’m going to start with my favorite picture because it is the wrongest of them all.

Despite what the crudely fashioned silver rope says, this is not a Rolls Royce.

This picture with the lens flare and the soft focus casts it in the very best light, and you can still see how bad it is.

I can’t even count how many little stick on chrome horses are on there, then there’s the super wide whites, the stainless stick on moldings, the landau bars… Its like the Cadillac equivalent of a Nudie suit, only less tasteful.

 

The ad is here, but the seller must have been huffing some of the adhesive if he really thinks he’ll get $11k for this.
