Just my 2 cents, but being probably the last in-service Caddy ever it would be a real shame to see it lose the Bayshore markings imo.
looks better in the bayshore markings
Reserve NOT met at $24,500
I think your right Bill,
and again it comes down to what is the seller is willing to take vs what is it worth ?....
That being said,one has to remember that this unit was in service to a lesser degree then a unit from the 70's,but still in service.
So in my way of thinking the ambulance was brought up to the current state it is in as a "business" write off and has earned its "keep" hopefully over the years.....as such it becomes a "used" item ,just like a computer,or something similar that eventually gets replaced.
For those of us who collect vintage cars we cannot deduct our expenditures for them on our taxes....would be nice if we could......so we are always haunted with the thought of what we have into them vs what we can get out of them if we need to sell..for some it matters a lot and for others not so much.But in this case it had to have lots of money put into it to meet certain standards and maintain those standards.... . the seller should not expect to recoup. those costs...not saying he is but just trying to show my point....
So I guess what I am trying to say is the usual "What a willing buyer yada,yada,yada.....and that is what it is worth....no more no less
I think a 25K bid is/was a fair price for that very nice unit (and there may still be a deal made)..just my opinion.
This was also the seller's favorite rig of the 6(?) passenger car-based rigs that he owned. This is the last one that he owns and not as much motivation to sell this one either.

What was the fate of the others? I know they had two Criterions and a Lifeliner. Hopefully they've all been adopted into good homes.

I was quite interested in the '70 Pontiac, but the seller wouldn't send me any current photos or the specific information I requested.
It did sell, but I have no idea to whom.
It had already been sold when the other car were offered for sale for the first time, that is why you never got a response. It was the very fist car that they sold.
