One fantastic story about the real Elvis Aaron Presley occured the
summer of 1958, when The King Of Rock & Roll had several hits in the top 20.
Elvis and his entourage were looking over luxury cars at a Los Angeles Cadillac
dealership. The King noticed an elderly lady telling a car salesman she could not
afford whatever payments were asked for a certain used model Lincoln town car.
In a flash, Elvis bought the speechless senior a brand new Cadillac cash.
