    Me too. I suppose I never looked that closely at them when they went by. Except for that engine, I'd love to own that Caddy.

    I had an 81 oldsmobile wagon before so i am guessing it is pretty much the same exact car (mine had power everything and leather seats)

    Nope...not the same. These Caddies are after market builds.

    GM finally figured out how to make them run well, but by then, the public had given up on them. I wouldn't be afraid of it for the right price.

    -For the right price I'd drop a 350 crate motor in it if the original went bad.

    I would love to drop a 425cid '77-'79 Cadillac engine in one of the HT4100 piles and let her fly. Would have to decide between a nice tough BOP pattern 350/400 or a 200-4R. I don't think they ever made 700R4's in BOP pattern. Explains why 90s Fleetwoods were Chevy powered.
