CONTACT JEFF AT 570 977 0741. Up for sale and your consideration is a beautiful classic 1939 Cadillac Series 60 Fleetwood four door sedan with only 85,740 original miles. This car was garage kept it's entire life. This is a turn key and drive car that runs, drives and stops great, and can be enjoyed immediately on the day of purchase. This is a rare find since it is in outstanding condition and is a very well cared for true survivor. Please take the time to look over all 24 photos that I have listed here on the auction. I have many more photos available should any prospective buyer want them. Just call and ask for them. If any prospective buyer has any questions on this car I encourage and welcome the opportunity to show this car in person by appointment. I have in hand a clean title for this car showing actual mileage. I also have the original owner manual and a reproduction shop manual for this specific car.
BODY : The outer body is rust free. I'm not a body man, but I was told by two different body shop owners that they believe that this car still retains it's original paint. There is one small rust spot inside the left front fender. It is not part of the fender and appears to be an inner fender panel. The right side has been repaired. All glass is perfect. Trunk and doors lock with the original key. Chrome and trim is in amazing condition for the year. UNDERSIDE: As you can see in the photos the underside has only surface rust on the original floor pan front to rear. This is unheard of for a northeast vehicle. Underside viewing shows new brakes, new brake lines, new rear shocks, new king pins, new tie rod ends along with some new front suspension parts. The gas tank was removed and restored with the Renu restoration process. A new sending unit was installed. The gas tank is coated inside and out so the gasoline never touches the metal again. The interior is very nice original The left rear carpet has one area near the door that shows age. The woodgrain on the dash and window moldings is excellent. The steering wheel and all plastic knobs are excellent original. Headliner has no rips. The velvet autorobe blanket you see hanging on the passenger assist rope is an original with the original manufactures tag on it. It reads Artfur Auto Robes. It was manufactured by Shelton Looms. The seats appear to have been covered by material much stronger than the original cloth, but since seat covers were a factory option for an additional whopping $8.25 per seat, they may be original. A well versed Cadillac expert could probably answer this question. Windows roll up and down effortlessly. The gas gauge, temperature gauge, oil pressure gauge, ammeter gauge and speedometer gauge all work fine. DRIVETRAIN: Drivetrain is all original with low miles. Car is equipped with the 346 cubic inch "L" head V8 with hydraulic lifters. Engine is topped with a Stromberg AAV-26 carburetor that works great. A new fuel pump has also been installed. It is backed by a three speed selective synchro transmission that transfers the power to the 3:92 ratio differential. The car has just been tuned up and serviced with a fresh oil change, new spark plugs, and chassis lubrication. The transmission oil and rear differential oil was also just checked. ELECTRICS: Parking lights, high and low beam headlights, dash and glove box lights are all working. Interior light has power to the pillar mounted switch, but doesn't work. Working fog lights are a factory option and are connected to the headlight switch. The cost was $14.50 per light for this factory option. The under dash switch is marked 'fog lights' and illuminates when activated. Car has two horns. One is factory unit working fine that is activated by the horn ring on steering wheel. The other is a three trumpet musical opera horn activated by a toggle switch. It is unique and has it's own sound. The heater works fine. The wipers work great operating fast and smooth. The factory radio comes on but doesn't pull in any stations. You can hear scratching in the speaker when you move the volume knob. The radio was a $69.50 option and the heater was a $31.50 option. OPERATION: Since the fuel system was renewed with a restored gas tank new sender and lines and new fuel pump, along with a rebuilt front suspension and braking system, and all operational electrics, this classic Caddy is a dream to drive and gets thumbs ups wherever you drive it. The 16" Gangster wide whites have excellent tread. This will make an excellent enjoyable addition to any collection. The original condition and patina would be appreciated by any real car person. You can find rows of restored trailer queens at any car show, but try to find an original 1939 anything in this condition ! TERMS OF SALE: Please check my 100% positive feedback and buy with confidence. This car has been described honestly and to the best of my knowledge. It is literally impossible to know every tiny aspect of a 75 year old car so my description is based solely on a complete and thorough physical inspection, servicing of the car and driving the car. If any prospective buyer has any questions whatsoever as to the integrity and condition of this car then I would welcome and encourage an in person viewing of this Cadillac by appointment.

An ebay required non refundable $300.00 paypal deposit will be paid by the winning buyer using either the buy it now option or winning buyer at the end of the auction. Shipping of the car will be the financial responsibility of the buyer. I will be happy to recommend previously used shippers.

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.
Cadillac expects major growth in China
Thu, 25 Sep 2014The US sales issues facing Cadillac are not being paralleled in the People's Republic of China, as a new report from Automotive News indicates the US luxury maker should see its sales increase by as much as 40 percent.
The report cites Cadillac's own forecasts, which put its 2014 sales in the PRC at 70,000 units after cresting 45,000 vehicles at the end of August. Provided the sales pace holds true through 2015, the brand would hit its new 100,000-unit sales goal, AN reports.
"We're very optimistic about the luxury market, we believe that the luxury market by 2016 here will become the largest luxury market in the world, surpassing even the size of luxury in Europe," GM China President Matthew Tsien told AN. "With [Cadillac president] Johan [de Nysschen], we have somebody that really is an executive that understands luxury, but he also is very, very keen on understanding what do we need here in China for Cadillac to be successful."
Cadillac teases production ELR ahead of Detroit Auto Show
Tue, 18 Dec 2012General Motors has just confirmed that the 2014 Cadillac ELR will make its official debut next month at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show. We've already seen the ELR testing earlier this year using the same range-extended electric drive system as the Chevrolet Volt, and based on the shadowy image above, we're happy to see that the coupe's styling has stayed pretty true to 2009 Converj Concept.
The two-door ELR will be built alongside the Volt at GM's Detroit-Hamtramck plant starting later next year. Aside from this info, Cadillac has remained tight-lipped on the specific details of the car. But all that will all change on January 15.
Until then, all we have to offer you is the press release posted after the jump.
