This is a 1961 Cadillac in custom light pink paint with a black and white interior. Power comes form a 390ci V8 engine with an automatic transmission. Channel your inner Elvis and take a trip back to the era of shiny chrome and big tailfins. This beauty make an undeniable statement.
A pink Cadillac is one of the most famous and enduring symbols of 1950s American pop culture, luxury and rock-and-roll history. In 1955, Elvis Presley bought a blue 1954 Cadillac tour bus that burned, prompting him to purchase a 1955 Cadillac Fleetwood Series 60 Special. He had the vehicle repainted a custom pink shade for his mother, Gladys, cementing it as an iconic symbol of the King of Rock and Roll.
"Pink Cadillac" is closely tied to Aretha Franklin's 1985 hit single "Freeway of Love which features the famous repeating chorus: "We're goin' ridin' on the freeway of love in my pink Cadillac". Released on June 5, 1985, as the lead single from her album Who's Zoomin' Who?
