1:17 You sure don't wanna get T-boned in a crash while in one of those GM X-frame tubular chassis beneath you, even though the 57 Cadillac was the most beautiful car that company ever built.

Fantastic 2nd part, which only fails to mention that Priscilla Presley actually sat at the 70079 chassised 1957 BMW 507 passenger seat in ealry October 1959, when the car was already red, actually days before he sold it in Germany., She mentions in her autobiograpohy, written in 1985, that Elvis visited her parents for the first time while driving the BMW, because as she put it, he probably wanted to impress them. Other than that perfect.

Thanks so much! I haven't read Priscillas book yet, but it sounds very possible that she rode in the BMW 507 right before Elvis sold it. Elvis and Priscilla did meet in September 1959.

Hate to say it but chances are this 1957 Seville was scrapped to restore a 1957 Biarritz, sadly was the fate of many 1957 Sevilles.

@@PetraC.Bolden Thanks for checking with Hal Lansky. It's unfortunate that nobody knows. The only person still alive, which I could think of, that may know about this is Billy Smith. He was only 14 years old at that time though, so it's unlikely.

Excellent info. Except, at 4:01, Gladys is not leaning on the yellow Cadillac convertible, as the car she is leaning on has a triangle vent window, and a key lock below the door handle. The Cadillac has a rectangular vent window, and no key lock below the door handle.

Beautiful and sort of a rare car! Loved this video and all the other videos of his cars and motorcycles etc...💙This Lincoln Mark III is not as well known as some of his other cars and I enjoyed learning more about it. Sadly it seems he didn't get very much time to enjoy this car due to having to back to Fort Hood and then off to Germany shortly after that or even after the Army because Mr. Vernon had sold it.
