1958 Cadillac Fleetwood 60 Special * Runs Well And Great Interior * on 2040-cars

I have for sale here a really decent and rare 1958 Cadillac Fleetwood 60 Special.  This 50's land yacht starts right up and runs and drives good.  The brakes are pretty decent and the ride is very comfortable.  You and 5 of your buddies can cruise around town in real style.  The wide whites are old, but give a good ride.  The engine does sound very good and starts right up.  Pretty quiet exhaust.

The body is good and all of the stainless is there.  The stainless is in decent condition but does have the occasional screw.  The paint is average to below average and some crazy previous owner painted the rear bumper.  Bothe bumpers are solid.  The chrome is just OK.  The front and rear windshields are good.  The underside is pretty solid looking also with the usual and expected surface rust present.  Both rear floor pans have been patched amteurishly, but seem solid.  The trunk floor has rust through in a couple places along the edge.  Overall, the body and underside are very usable and driveable.  Some rust through on front lip of hood. 

The interior is really quite good!  Its all original and the fabric is in good shape and looks very stylish.  Nice dash and steering wheel.  Very good headliner.  All of the power windows work.  This '58 has power vent windows but they don't work.  Th dome lights, map light, and cigarette lighter work.  The horn, door locks, and turn signal indicators work.  Has remote mirror.  Heater and defroster blow and the wipers work.  The fuel ga, odometer, and trip meter also work.  These interior items are not working: speedo, clock, radio, and power seat.  The power seat makes noise but doesn't move.  As you can see in the photos, the interior is in really good condition and can be used right away.  All front and rear turn signals work and hedalights and turn signal dash arrows light up and flash.

These 1958 Fleetwood 60 Specials are very impressive indeed.  Pretty rare too!  This one can be enjoyed right away, or restore as you go.  This '58 Cad would be a great one to start with. 

Please feel free to ask any questions.  Sold in as-is condition.  Inspection available.

2015 Cadillac Escalade configurator lets you bling it your way

Fri, 21 Mar 2014

It's Friday, so there must be a new configurator to play with. While last week we showed you how to build your own McLaren 650S, today's ride is a bit more common. It's the 2015 Cadillac Escalade, a vehicle that you've been able to colorize since the end of last year, and which is sure to be an increasingly common sight on US roads in the coming months.
For those that have played with the build-your-Caddy tool, there's not much new here, aside from the vehicle being configured. The Escalade is available in three trims and two wheelbases, with prices spanning from the SWB, two-wheel-drive Standard, which starts at $72,690, on to the all-wheel-drive, long-wheelbase ESV Premium, which kicks off at $86,790. The options list, meanwhile, isn't hugely extensive. A rear-seat entertainment system and power-retractable side-steps (only available on the Premium trim) are the two notable options, while customers will have their choice of six exterior paints and two to three interior schemes, depending on the trim level.

Cadillac confirms new flagship to be built in Detroit next year

"The objective for this upcoming model is to lift the Cadillac range by entering the elite class of top-level luxury cars." - Johan de Nysschen
Cadillac confirmed Friday morning it will build its new flagship sedan, expected to be called the LTS, starting in late in 2015 in Detroit.

Cadillac developing stretched ATS-L just for China

Sat, 25 Jan 2014

To luxury automakers, long-wheelbase sedans are to China that crossovers and SUVs are to the US, so it isn't all that surprising any more when the latest sedan gets an extra couple of inches between the wheels to improve rear-seat comfort. According to Car News China, the next sedan to get the stretch will be the Cadillac ATS, which will increase the wheelbase by 10 centimeters (about four inches) to become the ATS-L.
Designed to go up against rivals like the BMW 335Li and the added-length Mercedes C-Class, the ATS-L will reportedly be built locally in China with an engine list that will grow as well. Currently, only the 2.0-liter turbo engine is offered in the ATS in China, but the ATS-L will get the full spectrum of ATS engines including the base 2.5-liter and the peppier 3.6-liter V6. This isn't the first time Cadillac has offered a China-specific stretched sedan either as the SLS dates back to 2006.
