1967 Cadillac Deville convertible


Up for Auction:

This 67 Caddy convert was pulled out of Kingman Az where it
had been sitting for many yrs and brought to Tucson.
The car has sat here in the Az climate for over 20+ yrs.
Odometer shows 47k on it which could be original.
What we know about the car you cant see in the pics is:
New spark plugs and oil and air filter.
We ran the gas line from the fuel pump to a container of
fuel under the hood, cranked it a few time and it fired up.
The water pump is frozen, so to keep things simple we cut
the old belts off. The motor runs and is actually quiet and
smooth for how un restored or tuned up it is.
We put the car in gear and have moved it around our parking
lot a few times, with no hiccups. Brakes work too.
Someone put 4 new tires on the car about a yr ago.
I suggest checking the fuel tank and maybe clean it out before
just adding gas and hooking the fuel line up to it.
But seeing as the car runs and moves on its own, this makes
shipping much easier and less costly.

RESTORE it back to stock or do something along the restomod
way, or rat rod and have an awesome 1 of a kind car
your friends only wished they had for such a low investment.

OBVIOUSLY this car has seen better days, but its would still be
a great car to restore. Rust on the bottom of both front fenders
and the rear lower part floor boards got the worst if it.
Trunk pan got some too, but honestly if you are doing a mild
restoration you could save it.
Just from water etc sitting in those areas over the yrs. But the
car hasnt seen salt and the frame rails, rockers are solid.
Check out the pics.
These cars are getting harder to find esp in this shape
which is still affordable for the builder.

DRIVETRAIN:  the original motor runs and sounds good.
Last yr for the 429 V8 4v matted to the 3 spd auto.
Motor does have all the AC stuff including PS, PB and
more. It will need a new waterpump and new belts
right away. Maybe just finish the tune up stuff after 
that and should be able to drive it. Well check all the
brakes too. But it stops right now, pedal feels normal.

INTERIOR: RED was the original color, cool.
The original is worn and sunbeat. But all the trim
seems to be there needed for a proper resto.
Rear seat bottom is missing. I tried all the PW and they all
move a little when you hit their buttons. So they are getting
power but Im sure the tracks are dry.
Convertible top frame and motor all intact too, making
the restoration less costly. I think the old pioneer 8 track
has been spoken for already.
SO the interior is rough, but a little time and effort could
go a long way during the restoration.


EXTERIOR: Original color was red, and think most of the
paint is original still. I do see where there was some previous
repair to the LR quarter panel near the bumper.
Mild rust compared to an eastcoast barn find making the
deconstruction easier as well as the resto easier.
All the glass is there, but the windshield is original and 
cracked on the pass side. Obviously it needs a top and
full restoration.

SUSPENSION: all factory the best I can tell and if its 
really 47k original miles, may not need much. 
Leave it stock or put some 22" wheels on it.


Check out ALL the pics below ----->

it may take a full minute for them all to load if you have a
slow connection, so be patient AND looks for the extra schroll
bar on the right side.
Az gets maybe 12" a yr of rain and Az very dry climate.
more info AFTER the pics etc. There are 100 large pics.


























































































































































There you have it, probably The BEST represented Converts on Ebay.
 
Shows you all the good as well as any bad, hope you appreciate them.
We put a lot of time and effort in marketing our cars and it shows.
People wait months for a car this solid to come up for sale
and even if you have to pay shipping to your area, it still beats
paying a body shop to hopefully fix a rusty car for weeks on end.
Having as much as the original steel on a restored car these days
speaks volumes. 

Also, if you buy a car thats been "restored", who knows what sort
of surprises are hidden under new paint or thick undercoating.
People are flipping cars all the time when most of the jobs are
fast, for a quick buck and quality suffers. 

Our auctions have NOTHING to hide .
Restore a car like this yourself or locally and you know
exactly what you have in the end.

Email us with ANY questions before you bid please
If you treat yourself to buying one of our vehicles
youll never buy a total rust bucket again from anyone !!
Our Impeccable FEEDBACK speaks for itself.
Doing restoration on this type of project is less labor
intensive which means overall cost is less too !
With less horrid surprises later on.
Dont let auctions with little to no pics try to fool you. 
With other auctions,  you really dont know what to expect
until you take the car apart. While we go over our cars ALL OVER
with great pics to help making your decision easier.
Along with ANY other questions you may have.

Former Cadillac boss Butler takes Ford tech job

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

When Don Butler made the surprising decision to leave his post as Cadillac's VP of global strategic development, it was a surprise. Citing a desire to "recalibrate, reassess my priorities" in that August announcement, it wasn't entirely clear where Butler - a virtual General Motors lifer after spending nearly 30 years with the company - would end up. Turns out he took a trip to Dearborn.
Butler has taken a position in the newly created position of Executive Director of Connected Vehicles and Services at Ford, where he'll be responsible for the Blue Oval's global connectivity strategy. "Not only does Don understand the connected car landscape, but probably just as important, he understands customer expectations," said Raj Nair, who, as Group Vice President of Global Product Development, is Butler's new boss. "Having a leader with technology experience both inside and outside the industry is a rare combination - we're excited to have Don join our team."
As Ford has received its fair share of flak for the sometimes recalcitrant MyFord Touch infotainment system and its Sync voice-controls, it appears that Butler has his work cut out for him.

2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe favors cleanliness over radical lines

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

Though you might not know it from looking at vehicles like the XTS and Escalade, if you take a broader look at history, you'll see that Cadillac models have gotten a lot smaller from the tail-finned highway cruisers of old. At least when it comes to coupes, anyway. The Eldorado, in particular, kept getting smaller until it disappeared, its place taken in recent years by decidedly more compact XLR, CTS Coupe and ELR hybrid. What you see here, however, is Cadillac's smallest coupe yet.
Revealed today at the Detroit Auto Show is the new 2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe, the brand's first compact two-door coupe, and the first production car to wear the brand's all-new crest. It shares the same platform and wheelbase as the existing ATS sedan, but packs a wider track and unique bodywork that's decidedly more conservative and less unique in its angular styling than the CTS Coupe that it's likely to ultimately displace in the Cadillac lineup. Styling aside, the all-American luxury marque has engineered the ATS Coupe with a focus on reducing weight to the benefit of both performance and fuel economy, giving it near 50/50 weight balance front to rear with underbody aerodynamic elements helping it cheat the wind.
Buyers will be able to choose between two engines: a 2.0-liter turbo four and a 3.6-liter V6.

Cadillac recalls ELR coupe over stability control problems

Fri, 28 Mar 2014

Cadillac is recalling about 656 2014 ELR models made between September 26, 2013 and February 14, 2014, because of a fault with the electronic stability control system. On cars without adaptive cruise control, it's possible that diagnostics could prevent the system from telling the driver if ESC is on or off.
Cadillac has a software fix ready and repairs begin on April 17. Alan Adler, General Motors' recall and legal spokesperson, tells Autoblog that only about 55 of the affected cars are in the hands of owners. The rest are either on dealer lots or still at the factory. There have been no reported injuries or crashes caused by the fault.
The correction for the stability control system involves a software recalibration of the electronic brake control module that takes around 20 minutes to perform. While they use the same platform, the Chevrolet Volt isn't involved in this recall because it "uses a different a brake control module," said Adler.
