Reminds me a bit of my wife's car. We have had it for 18 years. 

I can see how you would miss that 58. We had a 58 Coupe before we got the 57.

There is a 58 Coupe with a similar color combo in a junk yard in Burlington, IA.

I wish I had several of the cars my family used to own:

1967 Pontiac Tempest (Dad)

1973 Charger (Dad)

1985 Chevy Monte Carlo (Dad)

1971 Charger (my brother's)

1981 Firebird (also my brother's)

1974 Plymouth Satellite, 1970 Plymouth Superbird, 1968 Plymouth Roadrunner, 1970 Chrysler 300, 1976 Buick Riviera, 1973 Cadillac Hearse (Uncle Bobby)

And then my own: 1972 Buick Skylark Custom, 1978 Chevy Monte Carlo, 1969 Dodge A100 Van, 1998 Cadillac DeVille Concours.

I will own another awesome car.

A good friend of mine put this photo on their Face Book page for their 30th wedding anniversary today.

They used my now long gone '58 Cadillac 62 series coupe for their "get away car" at their wedding.

I really miss that car.

One can probably find a car like that on www.carsonline.com, just have your checkbook ready.

Cool story and photo....  I miss my old 75 Trans Am I once owned badly...maybe someday I can find a model or promo to make a replica of her to have..?  It had a .30 over sized 400ci Pontiac with a 472 lift 512 duration cam,ram air heads and exhaust manifolds,balanced engine assembly...ran super strong.

Id also love to find ones to make replicas of the ones the family had owned over the years...

64 Bonneville/Safari wagon

68,69,70 Bonneville HTs

69,70,71 Grand Prix

mid 70s Dodge van motor home

70,71 Mercury Cyclone GT

It sure is a beautiful machine,also one of my favorites next to the 60 and 61. I had this in mind when i bought

a 58 Fleetwood promo,but i`m having a hard time cut into it since it`s more or less mint. Actually prefer this

style rear end over the the Eldorado Seville,it`s like the Seville lack somthing.
