    Had a good friend come by today. He is all about cars. Builds them. Repairs them. Sells them. He is pretty successful at all of it.
    he looked the caddy over took pics and will post it up for sale.
    CKW loves the car but I am seeing it becoming a money pit. We have repaired the air ride rear suspension and now the Alternator. It’s low miles and in solid shape but it’s served it’s purpose.

    Same reason I got rid of the BMW M Sport. LOVED that car but the ever increasing spiral of dollars into it had to be stopped. I still find myself looking at them longingly online occasionally until the wife bitchslaps me back into reality.:drill:

    I may have missed it before, but did the lowering noticeably help the handling?
    Better shocks did for sure. The left front strut was done. Pulled the top nut and it just collapsed. Right front wasn't much better. Car does rotate on entry a little easier and I have a LOT of adjustment left to make it looser as needed.
