The Great Car Trade Experiment Part 2: Swapping an '85 Caddy for a '53 Chevy Truck (2025x13)

Air date: Mar 30, 2025

A few months ago, I drug a 1960 Chevy El Camino out of a friends yard after it sat for 16 years. I traded that Elco for an '86 Cadillac Brougham and after having fun with the air suspension, I'm trading that car, too. The goal is to eventually trade cars until I end up with a bucket list ride. For now, we are trading the Caddy for a '53 Chevy 3600 3/4 ton pickup. Episode 341 of Mike Finnegan's Garage follows us to Indiana to Indian to make the trade and then back home to Georgia to get the truck running again because, of course, it hasn't run in years either.
