Early 60's Caddy's...Kool or Not?

I am thinking very seriously about an early 60's Caddy. Whats your opinion...Kool or not? If so, what makes them kool, or what makes them not kool? Just wanting opinions. Can they be "traditional"? Thanks!!!

 

Go for it, they make some cool cruisers. I have always liked the early 60's big GM cars. You cant get much better for comfort either.

 

I love big cars myself, up to '76. After that they didn't have any "soul". I've always thought the '60 Cads were the best looking Caddys. I had a '64 Coupe project that never got off the ground, wish I still had it. Scoop up a '64 Coupe, throw a tri-power & some pipes on it & go cruizin'!! Look sweet with some Astro Supremes or some Radirs. I like mine factory ride hight or only a little lowered, like 1 or 2" so I can drive 'em anywhere. Don't know 'bout how traditional they are, when guys were driving around these jalopies we are trying to emulate they probly weren't driving an expensive car like a Caddy. But they're old cars, & old cars is old cars!

whats not to like???

 

****! Who cares!!! If you want one.....buy it!!!Most pre 70's cars are cool. Caddys being, probably,the coolest early 60's cars out there. Except maybe Rivieras,Buicks,and Pontiacs.

 

super cool ... do it

 

I like them till they lost their tail fins ,but it doesnt matter what i think.If you like it build it...

 

Thanks for the opinions!! Keep the pics comming...
I Love it...always looking for ideas...

 

cool!

 

Caddies are always cool. no matter what year your talking about. Some years need a little work, most need none. Early 60's need none.

 

Its your opinion that matters more....So to answer your question since YOU asked....I say NOT--but more like --*****IN'...

They rule when done right!

 

I've had a blast with mine but its time for it to go..... for SALE

 

Love them early 60's Cad's........
What make's them cool...My own opinion, they are cl***y, have real nice line's right from the factory and look so damn good with just a little work..

Just look at this black one....Simple, clean and just look's bad ***!
I'd LOVE to own this, or one just like it.

I say go for it, if you keep it simple you can't go wrong..

 

early 60's caddy are the **** ,sold mine this past summer and miss the **** out of it ,there just bad ***,i'm already looking for one,heres my old one--

 

I just purchased a 61 Cadi. I think they are cool

 

Early 60's caddies rock!! But as stated by others, buy it if YOU want, don't worry about what everyone else is going to think.

 

Thanks for the support. Thats why I love the HAMB, cause its kool to do your own thing....

 

I seen one a couple years ago for sale at spring carlisle, early 60's caddy. It was from New york area, the car was called Gang Green, beautiful looking car, feel in love with it but didn't have the asking price in my pocket at the time. later shawn

 

Amen !!! I had a '60 Coupe DeVille a few years ago. Unfortunatly, it was a previous '70's resto job that turned out to be a bucket of bondo, so I got rid of her. One of these days I will own another though ! Good luck with your hunt and post a pic of what you end up with !

If you think thier cool, then thats all that matters. Who cares what everyone else thinks. Caddys are the king **** anyways...timeless

 

If you have to ask in the first place, go find a mirror and have a real hard look at yourself and then go straight out and get one before its all to late !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
