Up for auction today is a beautiful First Generation 1976 Cadillac Seville. I drive it nearly every day and it drives like a dream.  I get all kinds of thumbs up and different gestures wherever I go with it.  I am proud to drive it, and I might add that it is a pleasure to drive.  It is a beautiful metallic silver with a matching gray vinyl padded top.  The gray leather interior is supple and there are no rips or tears.  Just the usual minor wear from age.  It is the most comfortable car you can imagine.  I will repeat the flaws in this car as I have already recorded elsewhere in this description. 

There is a small amount of surface rust where top meet trunk below the rear window as well as one tiny spot of rust on the very front bottom of the drivers side front fender.  The power antenna does not go all the way up but the AM/FM stereo sounds fine. Also the clock does not work as most of them dont and there are a couple of cracks in the top of the dash which is very common in these cars. All windows go up and down properly as well as the power seats.  The main lock switch will open all four doors but for some reason it will not lock the passenger side doors. They do work but just will not lock from the drivers door, but as I stated earlier it will open all four doors. Also, there is a small minor leak in the power steering pump.  It really leaks slowly.  Not a bad drip, but something I want potential buyers to be aware of. Also, there is a scratch in the passenger rear door. 

The odometer reads just under 102,000.  I hate to see it go but I have to do a lot of traveling and it will spoil the good in it to leave it out and put all of the miles on it.  Plus I need something with a 4 or 6 cylinder that is gets better mileage.  The mid 70's full size luxury cars weren't really made with fuel economy in mind.  This car is a true survivor and could be completely restored or used as a daily driver.  If I were keep it I would address the minor rust issues and have it repainted probably in a water based enamel.  I'm quite sure that you could obtain the original color.  I am pricing it with that in mind.  

It also has the original manual in its plastic case and the carpeting in the trunk.   No floor or trunk rust issues.  

If you have any questions, please don'ghesitate to ask.  I am pricing this car to sell, and it will be well worth the low reserve that I am placing on it.  This is sold as is, where is.  Shipping is the buyers responsibility, but I will do everything that I can from this end to make sure that things go smoothly.

C7 Corvette won't spawn new Cadillac XLR [w/video]

Fri, 23 Aug 2013

Between the new 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray and the even newer Cadillac Elmiraj Concept shown off at Pebble Beach, we were already expecting some sort of chatter of a Cadillac XLR redux. During an in-depth C7 Corvette discussion with Tadge Juechter, the car's chief engineer, Fox News asked if a Corvette-based, Bowling Green-built Cadillac will be built off the C7. Non-spoiler alert: the answer is no.
Juechter says that General Motors has "no intent" on transforming this car into a Cadillac product since the C7 has been optimized for the Corvette buyer, a consumer that's generally a different sort of person than a Cadillac intender who might also be cross-shopping a Mercedes-Benz SL-Class or BMW 6 Series.
While we're not ready to write off a future XLR altogether, we assume that the Corvette Cadillac experiment is most likely never going to happen again. The interview with Juechter is posted below, but the XLR discussion comes in at the 9:00 mark.

11 vehicles from Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas worth watching

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

This weekend will see the world's collector car crowds descend on Las Vegas, NV for one of the biggest shows on Barrett-Jackson's popular auction circuit. There are hundreds of vehicles up for bidding, ranging from a brand-new Lamborghini Aventador to a spattering of Art Deco classics and a huge swath of classic muscle cars.
While it's virtually impossible to assemble an inarguable list of the best cars coming during the three-day, 700-plus vehicle auction, we've sifted through the listings for this year's show - it was a tough assignment, we promise - and assembled a list of what we think will be some of the most interesting lots. We'll admit, it's a bit heavy on American iron, but if you browse BJ's listings, you'll come to a similar conclusion. Still, scroll down for our list of what we think will be the most interesting vehicles at the upcoming auction.

Cadillac considering more engines, Vsport model for Escalade

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

Want to roll in the latest Cadillac Escalade? You can get it with a 6.2-liter V8... or a 6.2-liter V8. Cadillac only offers the one engine option. But that may soon change.
According to the latest from Automotive News, Cadillac is contemplating a couple of new powertrain options for its blingin' big ute. The report suggests a twin-turbo V6 and a V6 turbodiesel could be offered, and that Cadillac could create a Vsport version of the Escalade like it offers on the new CTS sedan.
The more diverse engine offerings would help attract buyers from the new Lincoln Navigator, its prime competitor, which switched from a 5.4-liter V8 this year to a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6. The turbo V6 engines (both gasoline and diesel) would also help Cadillac market the Escalade overseas - particularly in Europe, where higher fuel prices preclude the prospect of driving a big V8 SUV for many buyers. Escalade sales have dropped from 35-40k units in the mid-2000s to around 12,000 the past couple of years.
