Love that 60, I have a pic of a white one somewhere. had to chop the 55 alittle... now its perfect to me..
Think they were made buy the same guys who did the ambulances and he****'s???? Anyone else have any clues???
That's a sweet looking ride. Too bad they only made a handful of them. But ya, probably wouldn't have sold too many of them back in the day. ****, you imagine driving one of those at 70 down the freeway?? You'd be blowing compact cars you p***ed all over the place!!!
I'm rarely early to a party, but I just found this and thought I'd ad: (May 1960 Popular Science magazine)
Someone please post a picture of the Caddy from the movie " Alices Restaurant" I'm not sure what it is cause I only saw the movie once many years ago. It was early '50's and was customized into an El-Camino type body , seemed well done . It's a hippy movie and there was always a load of hippies in the back . Anyone else seen it? I swear I'm not making it up !
It's a flower car. http://www.he****.com/vehicles/motorized/cadillac/1941/aj_miller/flower-car/v001/pages/pa.html
Cool , so they were actually made by Fisher , not a custom . I would guess Fisher used sedan roof sections and whatever parts they were already producing since they made so few of them .
I just saw my son with a caddy hotwheel like the one in Alice's Resturant, didnt know that was a real thng. Anyone know how rare?
------------------- Yeah....that'd be cool! Anybody here want to try photoshopping a Nomad roof onto a '55, '56 or '57 Coupe Deville??? Also, how about photpshopping a Nomad roof onto a tri-five Ods or Buick too??!! I and probably a lot others here too would love to see the results, if anyone is up to the task!

-------------------------- I LOVE it! Any details on who built it or when? Was it a "one-off" or a limited production piece by some commercial body-builder? Any more pics?? You could (should!) start a whole new thread just on this car! Mart3406 =================================
