Weird request,

I am getting married on June 7th and have been looking all over for a bad ass car service to drive us home in. I was going to rent a Ferrari or Lamborghini but I realized that I dont really want to drive. My grandfather recently remarried and he was driven home in something like a fully restored 32' Cadillac.

Unfortunately I have not been able to find any companies that offer something like this is Colorado. I figured I would check here before figuring out an alternative. It would be sometime around 11- 1130pm and all of 11.4 miles from Louviers, CO (between HR and Castle Rock on 85 / Sante Fe) to my house which is near Columbine High School.

Anyone have any ideas? I am not looking for a free ride, and have set aside $$$ for this purpose.

Thanks everyone.

[Driver]

It is not weird at all. When ,my wife and I were married, we were chauffeured by Dave Bandimere in a show quality '57 Chevy convertible, silver with red interior. The photos are awesome as is the memory. Fortunately I still have the wife too. :)

I'll ask around.

That 52 Bentley would be the way to go if it were me. I still remember Post Toasty's wedding years ago where they left in a 65 GTO but that was his.

My first one we left in my 72 GTO, tin cans and all.

How did she feel about the orange handprint on the backside of her white dress?

My wife and I rode away in a 46ish Cadillac. It was a pretty neat experience, I wish you luck in finding someone to help. We ended up going to a couple of classic car clubs, and talking to a few owners, until we found the guy we used. That was many years ago.. and not in CO, unfortunately.

Hey, at least we were in a 'Vette[ROFL1]


My BIL has a 69 ragtop Cougar that is a sweet ride, he probably would have some interest.

I got the "Hippie Limo" when I got married. 21 window fully restored VW bus. It was awesome. Retractable roof, 1000 watt stereo and he gives you the remote, had water and blankets for us.

That's not us but that's the bus. Way better than some limo or town car.

So a 98 F150 with a split cat wouldn't qualify huh?

We had a 02 Mustang and we just drove that home. Laid rubber in the street in front of the church I was so excited to be done with the wedding......Um I mean finally married.
