I can't tell which year for sure without seeing the grill but looks like 69 tail lights as far as I can tell.
Sorry to go all nerdy, but - I love big American boats

Now you know that it has to be a gold welfare Cadillac or Limbaugh's fans will choke.

Thanks for the info -- I was having trouble figuring out which land yacht that was!

Based on your description, found this:



Sorry, no bamboo cream vinyl top on this one. 1969 Buick 225.

Nice touches with the chrome exhaust tips and the wide white walls or as Mr. DeVaughn may say, Gangster white walls (TV antenna in the back)

Although it isn't a Caddy and it lacks a sunroof top and all the other options he mentions, I will take any excuse to post William Devaughn's soul masterpiece:

Way of referring to the Buick Electra 225, right?

I was a hip kid then and I'm a nerdy hip kid NOW!

Another cool ass song - with a lyrical reference to this conversation (I can't help myself, I'm nerdy in all things )

"Well I put you behind the wheel of a Deuce and a Quarter"

She doesn't look anything like the person she was born as. Too much work done.
