The Broadmoor Hotel is in Colorado Springs, about 70 miles south of Denver. It is not in the mountains, but right at the edge of the plains, before the foothills of Pikes Peak. It actually sits right in front of Cheyenne Mountain, which rises directly up from the plains. I grew up there and remember seeing these when they were in use. Cadillac also built red limousines for the Broadmoor as well. I actually liked those better.

1959 is one of my favorite years for GM cars. This car is just too big. I used to have a '59 Chevrolet Sedan Delivery, but I think it's kinda small compared to this one. The glass in this vehicle is awesome! The front windshield is pretty standard '59 GM wrap around, and those two small triangular rear wrap around windows in the back give the whole body glass this curved flow. The glass roof is incredible!

Nicely done video & history. But, GM didn't build the complete car. All Broadmoor Skyviews were custom jobs done by Superior Coach in Ohio from the firewall back, as you can see from the Broadmoor badge in the rear door. Superior is still in business, building hearses, funeral flower cars, custom limos. They also built ambulances much on the same basis as the Skyviews.

A few facts can be inserted. Yes, the Broadmoor is "near" Denver but is actually in Colorado Springs. Not in the mountains but at the base of the Front Range. He mentions three of these 59s. Actually there were eight with six being for the Broadmoor. I saw them frequently while driving tours up Pikes Peak over four college summers. I do not have the numbers but there were others of this type built over several years. I believe starting with 1955.

Wow. A friend recommended this channel to me a while back and, after nearly a year, I put on the jacket that had the piece of paper where I'd written down your channel name. I've been watching a lot of your videos and really love your format and the details you focus on. Only thing missing are maybe a couple 4-doors, although I know they're rare at car shows since everybody wants the cool, sporty two-door models (Me included) but it's still interesting to always see the different designs manufacturers offered on their four door models, especially in the late 50s and early 60s. And trunks, because the detailing in some classic car trunks is truly amazing (along with the sheer size), although I know many keep personal items and even extra parts in the trunks so it might be an unrealistic thing to ask for. Great videos Lou and I look forward to seeing even more classics in 2016!

I don't do trucks or motorcycles because it's called "My Car Story". I don't to trunks because you're correct, usually there is "Junk in the trunk", and it saves time for the Viewer who's viewing, because generally it's not all that exciting. I don't do 4 doors since people usually like to view the "Sporty 2 doors". However...occasionally I do 4 door (type in KZread "My Car Story with Lou Costabile 1958 Cadillac Caddy Eldorado Brougham 4 Door in Black paint"), and every now and then a truck may show up (type into KZread "My Car Story with Lou Costabile 1955 Ford Beatnik Bubbletop & Engine Start @ Klairmont Kollections"), and sometime the trunk is so special, I do one (type into KZread "My Car Story with Lou Costabile 1947 Hudson Series 178 Pickup RestoMod at the World of Wheels").

Um, no, Broadmoor is outside of Colorado Springs, not Denver. As bit of trivia for Perry Mason fans, the " Perry Mason: The Case of the Sinister Spirit (TV Movie)" was filmed at the Broadmoor Hotel. It's a beautiful old hotel.
