Assuming the doors are original, it is a 1960-1964.

The rear quarter is filled in with plywood which looks to have been either calked or glued in place. It is possible that all of these mods are done with bondo and fiberglass and easily reversible. If the car is solid it could be brought back.

Hahahahahahaha... Pop the hood, pull out a lawn chair, sip a few double doubles and become a member of the Horton's "No Gas Club".
That is possibly the most offensively modified caddy I've ever seen.

Interesting listing- "Trim - All Steal Custom" and "Sacrifice at $30k moving out of the country $20,000 Firm" So which is it, $20K or $30K? Not that I'd personally pay either...

It IS it just has early fenders. Look at the bumpers and more importantly the factory mirror that is mounted on the door in the factory location for a "fat chick" bug.
