1960 Cadillac Coupe De Ville A/c True Survivor Hard Top 2 Door on 2040-cars
Mangum, Oklahoma, United States
|
Up for auction is one 1960 Cadillac Coupe De Ville. By my understanding having the "J" in the VIN makes it a true coupe De Ville and not a series 62. If my research and knowledge is incorrect please let me know. The car is in above average condition considering being 50+ years old.
The body is in clean and straight with no issues. As noted the only rust through is located on the lower rear corners of the front fenders. The floor pans and rockers along with the inner trunk structure and undercarrige are rust free. The chassis is rust free as well and at all body mounting points. All the exterior is in nice shape but is in need of paint. The color has faded but no surface rust around any glass etc... All glass is in nice condition and all power windows and electronics work including 6 way power seat. I have recenetly installed a brand new OEM style spotlight and (rare) bracket on the car since the original spotlight and bracket were missing. The Air Breather and Valve Covers have been professionally painted with base coat and clear coat and look great. The vehicle will come with an extra drivers side door panel and a set of hub caps. The tires all have weather cracks and would probably need to be replaced.
The car is mechanically sound and runs and drives great. The vehicle has new push rods, lifters, fuel filter, fuel pump, transmission filter, cap rotor, iginition coil, stater, battery, oil filter, oil, transmission fluid, power steering fluid, anti-freeze, new intake gaskets, spark plugs, spark plugs wires, belts, hoses, and master cylinder. The transmission is in good condition and was free of any sludge build up or debris when the filter and fluid were replaced. The transmission shifts great and responds normally. The igintion system has had a full tune up and almost all of the ignition electronics have been replaced. The engine has had a recent oil change and the old oil was free of and metal shavings or debris. The cooling system has been completely flushed and had all of the anti freeze replaced with no abnormalities in the old antfreeze when changed. The carburetor has been fully rebuilt and cleaned and is a factory carburetor with electric choke. The car has factory dual exhaust but has rust throughout various spots but car is still quiet; however, the exhaust will need to be replaced.
The car runs and drives well. You could say its like driving a recliner down the road. The air conditioning on the vehicle works but will need a charge in order for the air conditioning to be 100%. The heater inside the vehicle works great and blows hot without any leaks. The car is a true survivor that has not been molested and would make a great car for someone to restore and bring back fond memories or make new ones. The car would make for a great restoration or a great daily driver as is.
I offer no warranty with this car and please let me know if you have any questions via email through ebay. Serious inquiries can feel free to send a phone number and I will be happy to give them a call for more details or questions. Please contact me before you bid if you have less than 5 positive feedback but are seriously interested in the vehicle. I would prefer to have bidders that have more than 5 feedback. Paypal is a requirement for purchasing the vehicle because I do require a $500 deposit to be paid 48 hours after the auction closing with the remaining balance paid 7 days after auction closing.
Buyer will be resposible for the pick up and shipping of the vehicle. The vehicle can be picked up at a business with a large parking lot. Common carriers I have had good luck with in the past include DAS and Uship or you can use a carrier of your choice.
Thank you for taking the time to show interest in this vehicle. |

GM recalling another 2.7 million vehicles in five separate campaigns
Thu, 15 May 2014The recalls keep rolling in from General Motors, evidently keen to avoid repeating the mistakes of the ignition-switch debacle and clean house. This time they're all coming at once, with five separate recalls announced together covering approximately 2.7 million vehicles.
The largest of the five actions involves over 2.4 million units of the previous-generation Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura in order to fix brake light wiring harness, which have been found to be susceptible to corrosion. The recall is separate from the 56k Aura sedans which GM recently recalled over faulty shift cables, not to mention the previous massive recall of 1.3 million vehicles - some of them the same models - but appears to have resulted from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation that started with the G6 almost a year ago.
The second-largest campaign involves the 2014 Chevy Malibu, specifically those fitted with GM's 2.5-liter engine and stop/start system, approximately 140,000 examples of which has been found to have problematic brakes. The issue does not appear to be connected to the recall of 8k Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans (also involving brake woes) which we reported upon last week. Four crashes have been reported in such models, but GM admits it's not yet clear if the problem was a contributing factor in the accidents.
2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe priced from $37,995*
Thu, 15 May 2014Cadillac has released pricing details on its new-for-2014 ATS Coupe. The new model, which will be available with buyer's choice of a 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder or a 3.6-liter V6 (the ATS Sedan's base 2.5 won't be making the trip) can be had with optional all-wheel-drive in place of the standard rear-wheel setup, while customers can also snag a six-speed manual or six-speed auto.
Prices start at $37,995, which represents a $2,900 premium over the 2014 ATS Sedan (pricing on the 2015 four-door isn't available yet) with the same 2.0-liter engine. Still, the ATS Coupe starts at just over $2,500 less than a base BMW 428i, which is also less powerful and offers less standard equipment. The Caddy is also less costly than the Mercedes-Benz C250 Coupe, although only by about $200. It's even cheaper than the Audi A5, which starts at $38,105, but that model includes all-wheel drive as standard. It should be noted that these prices are without their respective destination charges (*$995 for the Caddy, $925 each for the BMW and the Mercedes and $895 for the Audi).
Unfortunately, Cadillac hasn't released any additional pricing information beyond what we have here, so we can't tell you how much things like all-wheel drive, an automatic transmission or the 321-horsepower V6 will cost. That makes it difficult to figure out just how reasonable the ATS Coupe will be relative to its challengers, but so far, the value equation looks to be in the car's favor. When those full details roll in, though, you know where to look. Scroll down for the official press release from Cadillac.
Ward's reveals annual 10 Best Engines list for 2013
Thu, 13 Dec 2012Ward's Auto has released its annual 10 Best Engines award winners. The 2013 list covers the full width and breadth of the internal combustion spectrum, from a spate of efficient four-cylinders to the most powerful production V8 on the planet. As always, the entries must be available in a production vehicle in the first quarter of 2013 with an MSRP of less than $55,000. The supercharged 3.0-liter V6 from the Audi S5 held on for the fourth consecutive year, and BMW earned two spots on the list with its turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder and turbo 3.0-liter inline-six.
Ford pulled in two awards for its 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder and and the supercharged 5.8-liter V8 from the Shelby GT500. Honda matched BMW and Ford with two wins of its own. Wards awarded the 2.4-liter four-cylinder from the Honda Accord Sport as well as the 3.5-liter V6 from the Honda Accord. Chrysler, General Motors and Subaru each garnered a spot on the list as well for the 3.6-liter V6 in the Ram 1500, the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the Cadillac ATS and the 2.0-liter four-cylinder the Subaru BRZ, respectively. You can read the full press release below for more information.
