Tug tug. Ugly yank tanks.
Oh give me a break! "Ugly yank tanks", you're talking about a very classy 1950s car. They're a tank by modern-day standards, but they're stylish back then and they look
better then golf-carts from today. Trust me; my "ugly yank tank" (or what will become mine) is
nicer of a car then a modern-day "golf-cart".
I personally like the family 1956 Cadillac De Ville 4-door in black. That car is larger than my uncle's SUV and would beat it in a race, despite being over 50 years old. That car would turn many more heads then the nice Caddy; its fully restored, ours is fully original.
oh this is fully original too. 17,xxx miles.
but yeah. wow. a 56 cadillac? i'd kill for a car like that! i still think the 59 is a lot more flashy than the 56 (shoot... flashier than any cadillac year. lol) but i'd still take the 56 cadillac in a heartbeat 
Yep, a '56 cadillac de ville. It has about 100,000 miles and is still in pretty good condition. It was purchased around '58 (2nd hand) by my now-deceased Great Uncle. It has been in the family for nearly 50 years, and since then it has been up in Upstate NY.
1956 Cadillac Sedan DeVille, Second Generation, full-size luxury car
(Pretty much the above car, though looks a bit better)
Four-door hard top, black exterior
White/black leather interior (good condition, except driver-spot has cracked leather)
(Similar to the above car, though has 4-doors and no bar between front and rear seats)
Completely original condition
Foot-controlled AM radio
Registered "Historical" car
It was stored in the basement garage of our Queens, NYC home.
Well, enough boasting about the car; its in good condition overall. It was owned and regularly driven by my Great Uncle. It was purchased by my Grossvati (Grandfather), owned and regularly driven after that. For about the last 20 years, however, it has been kept without being regularly driven, though well-maintained. It took a trip up to Upstate NY in the late '90s, and since has been under the care of my Uncle. I'll inherit the Caddy eventually. We generally use the Caddy as a show-car. Instead of hiring a limo, we drive the Caddy. It works a lot better, costs much less, and is much for fancy then some generic limo.
We also have a 1986 Buick Grand National. Its a nice '80s muscle car, though not in as good of condition as the much-older Caddy. I would like to have that car when I'm in my twenties as well, though only time will tell. I really hope my uncle doesn't sell that car; I would happily restore the car's exterior as the interior is in great condition. It has a chipped, dull paint job due to its place of residence; outside under a car cover. The car is basically the same as a '86 Buick Regal (which we have as well), though has a better turbo-charged engine and much more class.
