Let’s face it, not everyone can be as handsome, talented, unscrupulous and conflicted as Don Draper, but if you’re the lucky bidder on this Ebay auction, you can own a car nearly identical to the one he gave away to a kid in Oklahoma on series finale of Mad Men.
Located in Cleveland, Ohio, this 1965 Cadillac Coupe DeVille is the same year and exterior color as the one Don drove during the past three seasons of AMC’s groundbreaking series. Unfortunately, it doesn’t have the same red interior. With 83,000 miles on the clock, this Caddy is not quite in showroom condition, but the car appears to be very clean. According to the owner’s listing “Everything has been gone through. Brand new tires, springs, exhaust, and parts for the air conditioning. Relatively new paint job, brakes, etc. The car is beautiful and catches everyone’s attention. It runs like new.”
Win this auction and all you’ll need is a porkpie hat, pack of Lucky Strikes and a few weeks of free time to recreate Don’s road trip across America.
