looks like a Pontiac Granville or a Catalina to me -- Last edit: 2006-06-06 21:32:55 |

Strange windshield-wipers... Maybe that helps to identify? |

LeBaron maybe? |

It's a full size RWD priobably. Too large for a LeBaron "K", and definitivly not an LeBaron "J" I agree with you, this wipers help to identify. In first, I think about the (really nice car !) Buick Centurion... But not. -- Last edit: 2006-06-07 20:32:01 |

It looks like a 67 Cadillac DeVille convertible. Wipers like these are found on 1965-1967 GM cars (1965-66 full size Pontiacs, 1965-67 full size Oldsmobiles, 1965-67 full size Buicks and 1965-67 Cadillacs). The cowl air grilles look like those on 1967 Cadillacs and the dashpad with dual speaker grilles look like it's from a 67 Cadillac too. |

I think you hit on it, Ive been comparing the dashboard pad and wipers, I agree with you, I believe its a 1967 Cadillac Deville or Calais link -- Last edit: 2006-06-14 05:15:25 |

I would agree it's probably a full-sized GM model, but NOT a 1967 Cadillac. The latter did NOT have the "Climate Control" sensor grille mounted on the dash pad, in front of the driver, like they did from 1964 to 1966. I'm not going to take a guess at this one. |

My family had a 67 Coupe De Ville...from this angle, the dash and wipers look identical. Don't recall the placement of the climate control sensor. If this is a genuine - factory-build soft-top it would have to be a De Ville. There were no Calais convertibles. |

'67 Caddy had a large chrome air intake in front of the windsheild. The windsheild bow suggests aGM from the "scissor-top" era-'72-76. Pontacs had a trim line down the hood- I'm guessing it's an Olds |

probably should be deleted, as unidentifiable |

pretty well narrowed down... definitely full sized GM, and '67 or before to get those wipers ~ but not much before. |

5 years later, I still think it's a '67 Cadillac with the 4 speaker option. Where was the sensor grille for the climate control on the '67 if it wasn't on the top of the dashpad? On those I have seen, it seems to be at the top of the dashpad, on the driver side (but not centered with the steering wheel like those on 1965-66 models) just like the one on this picture. |
