:histeric:
I do! :p

I do :D

too bad the Rambler won at the end...... what exactly does he mean, when he says "how can I get this car out of 2nd gear"?

I was going to start a thread, about Cadillacs being mentioned in songs, have 2 collums..... 1 for the song being towards a Cadillac, and the other for just mentioning Cadillac.

Since I got my Coupe DeVlle, Pickup man is now my worst enemy song -it's a good song, but I can't listen to the part "light my truck on fire, and roll it down a hill. still wouldn't trade it for a Coupe DeVille"---- it is just sad, especally when I am sitting in my CDV :(

And my 409 by the Beach Boys can be my best friend song, becuase replace "409" with "4 point 9" and you got yourself a winner :D

The Cadillac was going as fast as he could and the Rambler was only in second gear.
It's not a pro-Cadillac song but still pretty funny.

Yeah, that's what I thought it means

hmmm, seeing as how the Rambler was kinda na econobox in it's day, that had to have been a built up one or something they were tlaking about....

.....when did that come out in... the 70's? beucase (well, without the emmsions crap) the Caddy's would have no problem going more then 120

The song came out in 1958.

Woha.....really?

hmm..... that is a good 15 years before I thought

the engine must have been the 390 then....

When I think of Cadillac songs only one song really pops into my head and thats "Cadillac Ranch" Chris LeDoux version.

the engine must have been the 390 then....
They didn't start using the 390 until '59.
Here's a link to some Caddy engine info.

ahh....well, I knew the 390 was in the '59 Eldorado, so I figured a year earlier, and it had the same engine...

I can think of alot of songs with Cadillac in them, here are a few.

Pink Cadillac by I forgot
Boot Scootin Boogie, Alan Jackson
Pickup Man also Alan Jackson
Radio by LL Cool J
Country Girl by DF Dub

Just a few, some mention it more then others, there are tons of songs, and alot of new rap songs mention Cadilalc (Escalade most likely)

*off topic*

with the release, and popularity of the Escalade, it is making Cadillac, and older Caddy's thought alot more higher of, beucase what used to like, oh wow, you have a Cadillac (sarcasmin) is now like, DAMN, you have a Caddy?

I think it's cool

From Southern Hospitality by Ludacris:
Uhh..
Cadillac grills, Cadillac mill's
Check out the oil my Cadillac spills
Matter of fact, candy paint Cadillacs kill
So check out the hoes my Cadillac fills
Twenty inch - wide, twenty inches high
Hoe don't you like my twenty inch - ride
Twenty inch thighs make twenty inch - eyes
Hoping for American twenty inch - pies
.

Guitars, Cadillacs, and Hillbilly Music--Dwight Yoakam

Don Henley's "The Boys of Summer":
Out on the road today, I saw a DEADHEAD sticker on a Cadillac

The Ataris redid that song this year, but instead had:
Out on the road today, I saw a BLACKFLAG sticker on a Cadillac

gotta love Dennis Leary "*******":

You know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna get myself a 1967 Cadillac El Dorado convertible, hot pink with whaleskin hub caps and all leather cow interior and big brown
baby seal eyes for headlights, yeah! And I'm gonna drive around in that baby at 115mph getting one mile per gallon, sucking down quarter pounder cheese burgers from
McDonald's in the old-fashioned non-biodegradable styrofoam containers and when I'm done sucking down those grease ball burgers, I'm gonna wipe my mouth with the
American flag and then I'm gonna toss the styrofoam container right out the side and there ain't a God damned thing anybody can do about it. YOu know why? Because
we got the bombs, that's why.

Johnny Cash - One Piece At A Time

ummm......Boot Scootin Boogie is by Brooks&Dunn

Sorry, for some reason I had Chadahoochie in my mind....

These are great, I have to download all these songs just to lisen to them.

Here's the lyrics for that Johnny Cash song.




"Well, I left Kentucky back in '49
An' went to Detroit workin' on a 'sembly line
The first year they had me puttin' wheels on cadillacs

Every day I'd watch them beauties roll by
And sometimes I'd hang my head and cry
'Cause I always wanted me one that was long and black.

One day I devised myself a plan
That should be the envy of most any man
I'd sneak it out of there in a lunchbox in my hand
Now gettin' caught meant gettin' fired
But I figured I'd have it all by the time I retired
I'd have me a car worth at least a hundred grand.

CHORUS
I'd get it one piece at a time
And it wouldn't cost me a dime
You'll know it's me when I come through your town
I'm gonna ride around in style
I'm gonna drive everybody wild
'Cause I'll have the only one there is a round.

So the very next day when I punched in
With my big lunchbox and with help from my friends
I left that day with a lunch box full of gears
Now, I never considered myself a thief
GM wouldn't miss just one little piece
Especially if I strung it out over several years.

The first day I got me a fuel pump
And the next day I got me an engine and a trunk
Then I got me a transmission and all of the chrome
The little things I could get in my big lunchbox
Like nuts, an' bolts, and all four shocks
But the big stuff we snuck out in my buddy's mobile home.

Now, up to now my plan went all right
'Til we tried to put it all together one night
And that's when we noticed that something was definitely wrong.

The transmission was a '53
And the motor turned out to be a '73
And when we tried to put in the bolts all the holes were gone.

So we drilled it out so that it would fit
And with a little bit of help with an A-daptor kit
We had that engine runnin' just like a song
Now the headlight' was another sight
We had two on the left and one on the right
But when we pulled out the switch all three of 'em come on.

The back end looked kinda funny too
But we put it together and when we got thru
Well, that's when we noticed that we only had one tail-fin
About that time my wife walked out
And I could see in her eyes that she had her doubts
But she opened the door and said "Honey, take me for a spin."

So we drove up town just to get the tags
And I headed her right on down main drag
I could hear everybody laughin' for blocks around
But up there at the court house they didn't laugh
'Cause to type it up it took the whole staff
And when they got through the title weighed sixty pounds.

CHORUS
I got it one piece at a time
And it didn't cost me a dime
You'll know it's me when I come through your town
I'm gonna ride around in style
I'm gonna drive everybody wild
'Cause I'll have the only one there is around.

(Spoken) Ugh! Yow, RED RYDER
This is the COTTON MOUTH
In the PSYCHO-BILLY CADILLAC Come on

Huh, This is the COTTON MOUTH
And negatory on the cost of this mow-chine there RED RYDER
You might say I went right up to the factory
And picked it up, it's cheaper that way
Ugh!, what model is it?

Well, It's a '49, '50, '51, '52, '53, '54, '55, '56
'57, '58' 59' automobile
It's a '60, '61, '62, '63, '64, '65, '66, '67
'68, '69, '70 automobile."

lol, I just got done llistening to the song, and saw this....it's a cool song :D

how about hotrod lincolin , if you listen to the song the only way the hot rod lincolin got by the caddy is when the caddy pulled over to let him by , and as he said just before his foot was to the floor he had no more

and appently he had a pushrod issue to boot , "down in the valley she started knockin"

These are all I could find today. the problem is that the rear fenders in the two pictures don't match.

?????

Is that from the Cash song... ONe Piece at a Time?.....did somebody REALLY do that?

I think one of the pics is reverse because if you look closely ...one of the rear fenders does macth the other pic. Just flip the pic of Cash and you'll see what I mean.

Yeah, somebody REALLY did build one. That's the owner pictured with the Man in Black. The song came out before music videos were popular, but somebody made a video of it in the early 80's and re-released it.

It sells every few years, but with eBay and the Internet it will probably get more exposure next time it's on the market.

So somebody really pieced together a car with parts form 1949-1973? and it all worked? from that picture, I don't think it would look too good, but it ran, and drove and all that? is there anymore details about it, engine? tranny? that just seems strange, but cool at the same time.....

I think it was mostly body work on a late 60's platform.

Do a Google on "Johnny Cash" "one piece at a time" and you might get lucky and find a story on it. I know I've seen a couple of sites devoted to it.

Check out my "Cadillac Database" for a special page devoted to songs with the name "Cadillac" in the title:

I still like Cadillac Ranch, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band version. Its mostly country, but it doesnt suck and is not depressing like most other country.

"Eldorado fins, white walls and skirts;
Drives just like a little bit 'o heaven here on earth.
So when I die buddy throw my body in the back
And take me to the junkyard, in my Cadillac.

Cadillac, Cadillac
Long and dark, shiny and black
Open up, them engines let 'em roar
Tearin' up the highway like a big 'ol dinosaur."
