I'm selling my 82 Eldorado.

67,500 original miles, and clean title in hand.  Just paid for 2013 registration, so you're good w/ that til next March

I am the second owner.  Original owner was an older lady who drove sparingly.  The car sat in her garage from 1997 til 2011.  It was smogged every year, but rarely driven.  The family finally donated it to the Salvation Army, and that's where I purchased it. 

I have the original owners manuel, and the original paperwork from her purchase.  

The car was in decent shape when I bought it, but needed some work, so let my expenditures be your gain!  

The following repairs have been made since September (have receipts to prove)
  • 4 new tires
  • added freon, fixing AC (compressor had/does work fine, but needed freon to cool blast)
  • New front and rear shocks
  • New master brake cylinder
  • New Alternator & Muffler
  • New Radiator
  • New Water Pump
That's a lot of work that you won't have to pay for.

All work was done at E&E automotive, in Santa Monica.  Should any problems arise with this car, I highly recommend Ed.  He's honest, fast, and specializes in old Cadillacs.  

Okay, those are the basics - Here's the rest.

The body is nearly flawless.  There's a few paint chips on the driver side door (see pic) but that's it.  Was like that when I bought it.  

Interior is all original.  Black leather seats that are more comfortable than any chair I have in my house.  Makes sitting in traffic not so bad.  

Power windows, power seats, power everything.

This is a 31 year old car, and there are bound to be a few quirks, but none of these have had any impact on driving performance, or ability.
  • Cruise Control is broken, but when do you ever use cruise control in Los Angeles?  Also, every time you drive this car you're cruising, so there you go.  
  • Gas Gauge doesn't go all the way to empty.  Isn't a problem, because there is a resettable mile reader on the dash.  Every time you fill up the car, reset the mile marker to zero, and you'll know when to fill up.  Once you get to 220 miles, get to a station.  
  • The trunk does not stay open on its own.  Cheap and easy to fix, if it bothers you.  Hasn't bothered me, so I haven't fixed it. 
  • Clock/Radio Display is missing middle number (see pic) 
I'm happy to answer any additional questions you might have.

Thanks for looking,
Will

GM issues four new recalls, 2.4 million cars affected

Tue, 20 May 2014

General Motors has announced another set of recalls, covering some 2.42 million cars in the United States. For those keeping track, The General has now recalled over 15 million cars worldwide this year due to various issues.
Here's the breakdown for this most recent set of recalls:
1,339,355 - Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia models from the 2009 to 2014 model years; Saturn Outlook models from the 2009 to 2010 model years

Chrysler, Nissan looking into claim that their cars are industry's most hackable

Sun, 10 Aug 2014

A pair of cyber security experts have awarded the ignominious title of most hackable vehicles on American roads to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, 2014 Infiniti Q50 and 2015 Cadillac Escalade.
Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek are set to release a report at the Black Hat hacking conference in Las Vegas, Automotive News reports. The two men found the Jeep, Caddy and Q50 were easiest to hack based not on actual tests with the vehicles, but a detailed analysis of systems like Bluetooth and wireless internet access - basically, anything that'd allow a hacker to remotely gain access to the vehicle's systems.
Considering this lack of hands-on testing, the pair acknowledge that "most hackable" could be a relative term - they point out that the vehicles may actually be quite secure.

Cadillac CTS-V gets Stealth Blue and Silver Frost limited edition models

Fri, 15 Feb 2013

A little more than a year and a half ago, former weekend editor Alex Nunez and I were talking about how sweet it would be for Cadillac to offer a CTS-V in the Corvette's Supersonic Blue paint, and as if General Motors eavesdropped on our conversation, this showed up. And while the Stealth Blue car you see here isn't an exact duplicate of the hot-looking sedan GM showed off in prototype form, it's really close. And really sweet.
New for 2013, the Cadillac CTS range gets two new colorful editions, starting with the Stealth Blue package available on the CTS-V (in sedan, coupe and wagon bodystyles) as well as the naturally aspirated CTS coupe. In addition to the unique paint, blacked-out grille and dark satin wheels, Stealth Blue cars can also be done up with an optional Twilight Blue leather interior. (And you thought blue-on-blue color schemes died in the '90s.)
Cadillac is also offering a new Silver Frost package, but it's a bit more exclusive. Only 100 examples will be built, all in CTS-V Coupe form. The Silver Frost paint is a low-gloss matte finish, in that while it technically has a clearcoat covering, it's reduced in a way that the surface still appears flatter than standard paint. Even so, Cadillac states that the car should be hand-washed only.
