    In the town where I was born
    Lived a man who sailed to sea
    And he told us of his life
    In the land of submarines
    So we sailed up to the sun
    'Til we found a sea of green
    And we lived beneath the waves
    In our yellow submarine

    SoxnCycles nailed it with the 20 grand mark. A couple years ago I spoke with a guy that owned one. It was really well taken care of. He said it was worth 20 grand.......

    They also use a Continental in the show Entourage..

    A couple of nice old caddys!

    Another thing to consider is paint and body work.
    If you can find a car with a solid body and decent paint (shouldn't be too difficult, you not living in the rust belt), you'll be ahead of the game.

    Rebuilding a motor is easier for a backyard mechanic than painting and body work.
    Both can be expensive to have done professionally.

    Both caddies look to be in good shape!
