Just watched all 3, nice find.  Back a decade or so sat a 2 door black 59 in mint condition on a doctors front lawn.  To me it was a classic, a real special beautiful car.  I never thought the guy would sell it?  A month later walking through a junk yard for parts, there it was.  The yard bulldozer beat it up and it sat there waiting to be crushed.  To this day it bothers me that I didn't knock on the door to ask if it was for sale.  He gave it to the yard because no one asked about it on the front lawn.

Wow! Great videos! What a car! I was never a big Caddy fan but those early ones are cool! 

Unfortunately it's still going to cost a small fortune to restore. Even if you do the work yourself. There's probably $10,000 in rechroming alone. I think most of the trim on the side is stainless, so that can be done at home. The interior and vinyl top will be another $5-10k. Still, I wouldn't mind giving it a go!!

...and that gararge! What a cool place! That's like, my DREAM hangout!!
