Welcome and thanks for visiting my auction!

This is a no reserve auction

This Allante has a clean and clear title. It does run and drive, good brakes, good set of matching tires and a near new convertible top. All the glass is good along with the dashboard and door panels, carpet is in great shape, all the lights works, gauges except the radio, power antenna and A/C, but needs charging.

The body panels line up nice, but does have some surface rust on both rear quarters and a minor ding on the pass. side quarter. All the lenses are in good shape with no fading, paint looks great as well as the bumpers. has the chrome rims, but again has minor surface rust on the outside lip, no curb rash at all. I did replace the power antenna relay, this is a common problem for killing a good battery overnight. Since the radio doesn't play the antenna relay is always on. With the new battery installed there isn't any starting problems. It does come with a matching hard top.

The brakes, steering and ride is very nice. Has NO LEAKS anywhere!! Engine sounds good, but does need a tune up and minor exhaust work. The exhaust is complete, but loose somewhere. Transmission shifts great and smooth. 

A lot of new parts have been installed on this car from the previous owner and myself. I don't have any receipts showing the previous work. I do have the owners manual and purchased a used information center for the car.

Here are a few things the car still needs...
Soft top pull down latch
Radio, antenna repaired/ replaced
Drivers seat side bolster repaired along with power seat trim
Headliner has 2 small holes, which will need replacing sometime.
Exhaust, tune up

Overall this is a beautiful machine with a beautiful color scheme. Won't take much to make this "minor drivable project" a fine ride. basically everything is cosmetic, not mechanical. 

I have just over $2900.00 in this car, but I know I will never get that back. Thank you.

Cadillac considering more electric cars, Elmiraj business case gaining popularity

Fri, 01 Nov 2013

Cadillac's electrification isn't likely to stop at the $76,000 ELR coupe, according a report from TheDetroitBureau.com. Speaking to Cadillac's global sales boss, Bob Ferguson, a successful ELR will likely lead to a larger, even more upscale offering than the Volt-based two-door. "I could certainly see a larger vehicle, something even more luxurious," Ferguson said of a potential second, battery-powered Caddy.
That car would likely boast a more potent version of the Voltec powertrain that motivates the Volt and ELR. This next-generation system is still sometime off, though, and won't likely arrive until the second-generation Volt hits the market.
Besides hinting at future plug-in hybrids, Ferguson spoke to TDB about the improving business case for the Elmiraj Concept, shown at the Pebble Beach Concours in Monterey in August. "I'm very excited about the reception for the Elmiraj," Ferguson said. "I'd like to see it in showrooms as soon as possible," he added, before saying that a business case for the production version of the big coupe still needed to be presented to the brass. "It was made to be operationalized," Ferguson added, which is just what we want to hear when it comes to big, flashy concept cars.

2014 Cadillac ELR whirs into Jay Leno's Garage

Tue, 18 Jun 2013

While Jerry Seinfeld was gallivanting around LA with Sarah Silverman in a Jaguar XKE, our favorite car-loving comedian, Jay Leno, was checking out the all-new 2014 Cadillac ELR. Set to go on sale later this year, Cadillac brought its ELR to Jay Leno's Garage to show off some of its styling and technology as well as give Leno some seat time in the range-extended EV. Leno owns both a Volt and a CTS-V, and the ELR is a kind combination of the two (sort of).
In this episode, Leno spends some time talking to Frank Saucedo, GM director of advanced design, and ELR chief engineer Chris Thomason before logging a few miles on the sleek coupe. Interestingly, it seems that GM has definitely changed its tune a little since the introduction of the Volt a couple years ago; Saucedo and Leno both refer to the ELR as a hybrid, and Thomason says that it gets the "bulk of its propulsion" from the electric motors. Whatever you want to call it, scroll down to watch the latest episode of JLG with some great information and driving shots of the plug-in Cadillac.

GM recalls 2014 Cadillac CTS recall

Wed, 02 Jul 2014

No, that headline isn't a typo - General Motors has reportedly issued a recall for one of its own recalls. The recall of a recall affects the recall of the 2014 Cadillac CTS, which wasn't supposed to be recalled. Except that the 2014 CTS was supposed to be recalled. Oh no, now we've gone cross-eyed.
Allow us to explain. The redesigned, third-generation CTS Sedan does not feature a faulty ignition switch, while the 2014 CTS Coupe and Wagon, which are based on the second-gen car, do. And as it turns out, there are only 264 of those vehicles included in last week's 8.2-million-unit, ignition-switch recall. Model year 2003 to 2013 CTS Sedans, Coupes and Wagons are still covered.
It's not entirely clear how this, frankly, colossal mistake was made, although we're betting GM is rapidly trying to get to the bottom of this embarrassing issue. Regardless, let's just take what solace we can in there being one less vehicle that GM has recalled this year.
