CAR'S MAKE AND MODEL: 1969 Cadillac Eldorado
"I LOVE MY CAR BECAUSE ... it was the Rat Pack car of the late '60s. It was way ahead of its time: It had a six-speaker stereo, tape deck, all-power seats, even seat heaters! It rides soft and firm, and turns heads wherever it goes. I think it is a beautiful classic."

My dad had an identical 69 Eldorado when I was growing up. It was the ultimate in luxury and styling at the time. The hood on this front-wheel drive seemed to go on forever.

1967-70 Eldorado is one of the best designed cars from a strictly artistic standpoint, ever. I had a '70, they are truly classics.

Dr. Saylor is our neighbor and we love watching him polish and pamper his 69 Eldorado. It's the pride of the neighborhood!

I am Dr Sayler's son. I drove this car to my Senior Prom in 1980. My date didn't care about the car, but my friends all thought it was way cool.
