Up for auction is this 1960 Cadillac Sedan Deville Flat Roof. The car was fully equipped with air conditioning, power windows and seat, leather upholstery, autronic eye and signal seeking radio. She left the factory in monotone Persian Sand with gold and burgundy upholstery.
The car has been off the road since the 1980's and there is rust in all the usual places such as the qurter and fender bottom, floors, rockers, trunk floor, gas tank, and the trunk and hood lip. She is 90% complete, and as far as I can tell is missing only the hubcaps, two eyebrow moldings, the radiator and the a/c compressor. The fender skirts are in the car as are the autronic eye and some assorted trim pieces. We have not been able to get the trunk open yet so there may be more parts in there, if we get to it we'll open it and detail the contents on the auction. Two blasted and painted Cadillac wheels are included with this car as two of the wheels currently on the car are not correct.
This Deville could be restored but would probably serve a better purpose saving other Caddys. The bumper ends and the back window are very nice and are worth our starting bid by themselves. The flat glass and windshield are cracked and not useable. The trim and chrome are good and the grill is perfect. Save it or use it to save others. We will not part this car out, no exceptions.
The car will need to be trailered due to the bad tires, please bring a strong winch for loading as she is very heavy and we cannot assist!
This Cadillac is sold with NO RESERVE!
The other cars in the background are not for sale, please do not ask!

Seinfeld and Don Rickles stretch out in classic Caddy for latest CiCGC
Thu, 04 Jul 2013It's no surprise that for the newest episode of Jerry Seinfeld's Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, airing for the first time on the 4th of July, that a couple of American classics are involved. You'll Never Play the Copa unites Seinfeld with legendary curmudgeon Don Rickles, driving around in a stunner of a 1958 Cadillac Eldorado Seville in Gleneagles Green (upholstery wrapped in Grandma-spec plastic, of course).
Mr. Rickles really steals the show in this one - maybe our favorite CiCGC to date - though the Eldorado plays a strong-jawed costarring role, for sure. Stories about Ronald Regan, Frank Sinatra, Billy Graham and, of course, Herkie Styles are more than worth the price of admission. Check it out below.
GM recalling 2013 Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac SRX over transmission software
Thu, 21 Mar 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued recalls for the 2013 Buick LaCrosse and 2013 Cadillac SRX due to a problem with the software for the transmission controller. On about 27,000 SRX and LaCrosse models, the transmission could accidentally be shifted to Sport mode, which would reduce the amount of engine braking drivers experience.
NHTSA says this could increase the risk of a crash, but, fortunately, the required fix is simply an update to the software.
While we're on the subject of General Motors vehicle recalls, a small number (48) of compressed natural gas versions of the 2011 Chevrolet Express are also being recalled for a potential risk of fire or explosion. Yikes. Both official recall notices are posted below.
GM extending warranties on Cadillac CTS-V and Chevy Camaro ZL1 for supercharger issue
Wed, 04 Jun 2014Okay General Motors, we've sat by and watched you recall the compact cars, crossovers and pickup trucks, and aside from reporting on it, we've been fairly quiet. This, though, this will not do. We can almost tolerate the recalls on the bread-and-butter cars, but leave the performance vehicles alone.
According to a report from The Car Connection, GM has discovered a problem with the superchargers of the 6.2-liter V8s found in the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 and the Cadillac CTS-V. Apparently, the issue rests around the internal bearing shaft grease, which can become contaminated (we aren't sure with what). If left unchecked, it'll first lead to a rattle at idle, which goes away under slight throttle. The real warning stage is when a high-pitched squeal develops, signaling that the bearing shaft has failed. Naturally, severe engine damage is the next step (although it's possible that the engine will also just refuse to turnover, although neither case is desirable).
According to TCC, GM will replace the superchargers on vehicles that have exhibited symptoms of bearing shaft failure free of charge. It will also, allegedly, be extending the warranty on all supercharged ZL1s and CTS-Vs to 10 years or 120,000 miles (whichever comes first), from the date of purchase. Officially, only 2009 to 2013 CTS-Vs and 2012 to 2013 ZL1s are suffering from this issue.
