1969 Cadillac Sedan deVille on S. Lamar Blvd.

Written by Ken Altes

Dad had one of these in the day. I drove it a lot, and it was a very nimble 5200 lb car, turning on a 129.5 inch wheelbase. Mom had a small Mercedes that I talked her into buying, but when both cars were available, I chose the Caddy. These were really good cars with creamy torque and 375 hp  from a 472 cu. in. V8. Great steering, engine, transmission, interiors, climate control, reliable and smooooth.  With my sister and Mom, we drove our car almost non-stop to New York, taking turns sleeping on the wide rear seat. By far, my easiest road trip ever. I never had the same feeling of trusting a car to carry through regardless of road condition or circumstance as this one.1969 Cadillac Sedan deVille, Austin Texas detail 1969 Cadillac Sedan deVille, Austin TX 1969 Cadillac Sedan deVille, Austin, TX
