This is one of those great cars you hear stories about, lovingly cared for by its owner but lost to time after his passing. I encourage you to come see this car in person, I restore and repair classic cars for a living because I really love cars, so when I tell you this is one incredible find, take the time to see for yourself!
You should know:
I am listing the car for a customer who inherited a few cars from his father who was a collector. We went out to Kansas to prep them for transport as they had been stored in an old building for many years. When they arrived at my facility, we very carefully washed and cleaned them.
Also pulled the tires off to inspect the brakes, all parts are original, date coded components! The rotors were "lightly turned" to remove some surface corrosion and the calipers replaced, (original ones come with the car). The rears were very good, in fact the wheel flange on the axles still shines as if the car was assembled last week!
We pumped the old gas out of the tank and added fresh gas.
A new Delco battery was installed and she fired right up! She runs great, very smooth and quiet as you might expect from a car with 17,500 miles.
There is some damage as someone tried to steal some emblems. A few are missing.
We vacuumed and wiped the interior and polished all of the chrome.
Chrome on this car is unbelievable, it look new.
Check the date original date coded wires and painted heater hose, this car is a time capsule!!!!
While this is a great car its not perfect, I have not tried the air conditioning either. The paint is very nice but not sure if its original. If you want to see her, fly in and we can pick you up at Detroit Metro Airport and bring you back, its only about 1/2 hour ride.
I'm not sure what its really worth so we are starting the bidding low and hope for the best.
If you have questions, please call Dave's Hot Rod Garage 734-692-7151
Thank you.

2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe favors cleanliness over radical lines
Tue, 14 Jan 2014Though 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.
Watch the 2014 Cadillac CTS get its groove on in the rain
Sun, 31 Mar 2013In case you haven't got enough of the 2014 Cadillac CTS that just debuted at the New York Auto Show, Cadillac has let us have some rolling footage of the car around its test track along with a few words from VP of marketing Don Butler and executive director of design Mark Adams.
You won't learn much more about its 420-horsepower, twin-turbo V6 but you can hear how it growls in the rain, and you can get a better idea of how you'll look in the driver's seat giving it a workout. That's got to be worth something, right? You'll find both videos just below.
GM considering new powertrain options for large SUVs
Tue, 15 Oct 2013Aside from the new General Motors offerings, there's not a whole lot of action going on in the fullsize SUV segment. That doesn't seem to be stopping GM from pushing the envelope in the market as Automotive News is reporting that the automaker is looking to introduce some new powertrain options into the Chevy Tahoe (and Suburban), GMC Yukon (and Yukon XL) and the Cadillac Escalade - all have been redesigned for the 2015 model year.
Now, we already know that GM and Ford are collaborating on nine- and ten-speed transmissions for a broad range of applications (including the big SUVs), but this new report says that GM is also considering other options as a way to one-up the competition and, of course, to optimize fuel economy. AN quotes Jeff Luke, executive chief engineer for GM trucks, as saying that "interesting powertrain technologies" are coming including a return of a hybrid SUV and possibly even a diesel engine. Although it sounds like the latter could come down to how customers respond to the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel.
