This 1971 Cadillac Coupe Deville has been sitting in the back of an old plumbing supply Warehouse for years. Will it run and drive or was it parked for a reason? Let's find out!
I started filming this a few months ago but ended up doing video on the Grand Marquis and Boat seen in this video first. Here they are:

The bent valve fix without removing the head was a stroke of genius

As a former tow truck driver you are indeed hooking it up correctly. Tow hooks always go under the rear axle. Thanks for your content.

I'm 68 now and I have been a mechanic all my life. and I have to say. I've niver seen a valve fixed like that. Every day is a school day. We'll done buddy brilliant job. Keep the videos coming.

Fixing the bent valve like that was pure genius. And to think you said you weren't a mechanic!

I'm not even 6 minutes into this video and this is the exact dream car I would like to have for the rest of my life. I'm 56 years old and became disabled 4 years ago. I just left my wife a week ago ❤ because all I did was laid in bed. I'm disabled it hurt anyhow this would be my dream car to finish out the rest of my life with as a daily driver. I used to be 6'8 but now I'm 6'6 and 1/2 and I have osteoarthritis, double hip replacement, knee replacement, two different fusions that became one fusing T12 down to s1. God I'd love to have something like this just to run my errands. Because I wouldn't care about the gas mileage alls I care about is the comfort. This bring back memories when I used to have a 73 Olds Delta 88 four-door. 455 rocket with a turbo 400 tranny. With highway gears. Used to drive at 100 mi an hour everywhere I went You got 10 mi a gallon. Drove it easy to try to save some money and it got 10 mi a gallon lol anyhow thanks for reading my ramblings. I am a faithful follower of your channel. Love your content.

First time I've ever seen a bent valve be sorted in situ with 6 whacks of a hammer! You never cease to amaze me, Chris.👌

[rickhunt]

How often does this golden opportunity present it self? Forget the three cars. The nostalgia of your roots. Rock on brother !

[poppacrab]

[gmjunky]

That valve diagnosis and fix was amazing 👍👍👍👍

Your abilities never cease to amaze me. The valve deal was just old school, and successful....priceless. You, Jen and Gus are worth every watch....

What a cool old store. It is so sad to see so few of them left.

[Shawnpmetal]

No one could steer me right but mama tried, mama tried. I love hearing those beautiful classic tunes in the background while you’re working on the classic cars. It’s almost poetic considering someone was likely driving that car lightening to those songs when they were still new.

I had a 75 Cadillac Sedan Deville with the 500ci V8 and HEI. It got about 8 MPG, but was like driving around your living room. What a car!

Straightening a bent valve with a brass hammer. Holy Crap!! Good job!!

[johnwakefield]

I had a great job as an engineer right out of college in 1970. I bought a 1970 olds delta 88 coupe brand new. Loved that old gm v8 machine. This caddy reminds me of my car but much more upscale as. Caddy of course. Makes my day when you post a new long video for us fans.

1971 was the last year of high school for me. I started my auto mechanic's apprenticeship then in a Chrysler plymouth dealership s a used car tech. I worked on a traded Cadillac just like that one...I'll never forget it. Thanks for the memories !

[knowhere]
