For one point, specify year, make, coachbuilder, and customer name.

1962 Cadillac convertible sedan, built on a Series 75 chassis for King Hassan of Morocco by Henri Chapron of France. And very nice indeed.

I sincerely hope you are correct, fyreline.

I spent two hours looking at "Cadillac Saudi Arabia", "Cadillac Kuwait"," Cadillac Oman", and not a few other Middle Eastern countries.

Never thought of Morocco >:(

Thank heavens for the excellent "Cadillac Database" web site. Lots of great cars there.

Interesting.  King Hassan II served from February of 1961, but the Cadillac database indicates the car was built for King Mohammed V.

(Checked again.  Another section says it was built for Hassan II.)
