My New Toy/Project

A few days ago I came across this sweet ride and a deal that was too good to pass up on. A 1982 Cadillac DeVille (Snoop DeVille) that was garage kept and babied by the Grandpa who owned it, only owner. Clean title, just under 52k original miles, all leather interior with no rips, all power features and all works, no dents/bondo, no paint fade or sun damage. Passed smog with flying colors and rides/floats like a dream. A/C blows ice cold, actually colder than my Acura does (this might need to be checked). Original radio even works and seems to play cassette tapes. It does have 2 small cosmetic issues on the bumper fins, but have already located the parts and total is under $100 for both, I figure another 1 - 200 to have them sprayed to match.

Paid $1500 for this new toy, less than half of what low blue book is and way under blue book value for its condition.









Still thinking about what I want to do with it, but I'm thinking a mix of old school lowrider and Goodfellas. Thoughts?
