1970 Cadillac Coupe Deville: Parts Car to Daily Driver

No commentary. Just the sounds of the shop, the road, and the process—guided with on-screen subtitles. This is a 1970 Cadillac Coupe Deville that was purchased to be a parts car and then scrapped. The car originally came from Missouri, with the last registration showing it has been off the road for 42 years. After removing all donor parts needed for another project, it has sat in the same spot for months. So now the time has come for it to receive some attention. Enjoy!
