Default Pride in the Possession.

1962 Cadillac promotional video used for sales training purposes.

Enjoy.

Isn't pride one of the mortal sins?

That was a great video! My how cars have changed over the last 50 years.

The 1962 Caddy was gorgeous. My father had a 1962 Fleetwood 60 special which I inherited ten years later to drive around when I was in high school after he got a newer one. That was always good for my being ribbed about it. It truly was a boat on wheels.

Didn't one of the lead characters in The Shape of Water buy a 1962 Caddy in the movie?

Reminds me of Jackie Gleason's jazz music.

I enjoyed watching some nostalgia from a great brand, my favorite.

Not bragging in any form but I have had many six figure German and Italian cars, all very nice but in the end limited for daily use - Im not a collector or a museum curator but an operator, I’m back to the practicality of daily driving, Cadillac driving with “Pride in the Possession”, kinda like my audio gear.

Same here, what a great time to be young. My dad and I were headed to San Diego and as you know Cadillac are known for their powerful engines to pull all that weight. In the early 70's were headed down I-5 to San Diego and doing 80 mph and my dad looks in his mirror to check for the CHP and a red De Tomaso Mangusta went flying by us. I'll always remember that day.
