1985 Superior Cadillac Crown Sovereign Hearse on 2040-cars

US $2,750.00
Year:1985 Mileage:57000
Location:

Crestview, Florida, United States

Crestview, Florida, United States

I am in the process of acquiring a 1974 Miller-Meteor hearse and will no longer have the space to keep my 1985 Superior Cadillac Crown Sovereign Hearse. Therefore I am offering it here at auction. I have over $4500 invested in this coach so please do not send me any messages with low-ball offers because I do not need to sell this vehicle. I can place it in storage but would like to see it go to someone who will appreciate it. 

I currently drive the coach two to three times a week with no problems however, this is a 30 year old vehicle so there is bound to be things that will fail unexpectedly. Everything that I could think of that needed fixing I have fixed, even things that might not have needed it.

At present I am caring for my wife who suffered a stroke earlier in December. I have taken lots of pictures and detailed everything there is to know about the coach in order to not have to take time away from my wife's care to answer excessively redundant questions about the coach that have already been answered in the vehicle description. PLEASE read the description, look at the photos, and then if you have a question that has not been answered please forward it to me and I will try to respond to your inquiry in a timely manner.

Everything known to be wrong with the car:

Service soon engine light goes on and off intermittently. (I have referenced the diagnostic code and it states that there is a problem with the Idle Speed Control circuit.) This should be an easy fix for anyone mechanically inclined. I have the GM/Cadillac Service Manual which details correcting the issue which will go with the vehicle. 




The vehicle is located in Crestview, FL. I have the receipts for all the work done on the vehicle along with a clean and clear title in hand. I also have the original owner’s manual, order form from the original funeral home that owned it, gold keys (and spare set), and a genuine GM service manual. Coach is currently registered, insured, and tagged in Florida.

Ford, Volvo top 2014 EyesOn Design awards

Fri, 17 Jan 2014

Each year at the Detroit Auto Show, the top vehicle designs are recognized with the prestigious EyesOn Design award for production and concept vehicles. This year, the 32 EyesOn Design judges (comprised of current and former vehicle designers including Chrysler designer and SRT president Ralph Gilles, Kia designer Peter Schreyer and retired General Motors designer Wayne Cherry) handed out three awards for the Best Concept Vehicle, Best Production Vehicle and Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials.
Beating out the Mercedes C-Class and Ford F-150, the 2015 Ford Mustang was named the Best Production Vehicle as the top auto show debut at this year's Detroit show. The 2014 Volvo Concept XC Coupe took home awards as the Best Concept Vehicle and for its Innovative Use of Color, Graphics and Materials.
Considering the Volvo's primer grey hue and subtle orange accents, it was a rather surprising winner for Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials over flashier concepts like the Toyota FT-1 and our Editors' Choice top pick, the Kia GT4 Stinger. Other vehicles in the running for the concept car award include the GT4 Stinger and Audi Allroad Shooting Brake

Watch these Australian Ford and Holden muscle cars duke it out

Wed, 21 Aug 2013

Australia's Motoring has put together a little video on two of the great performance vehicles available down under - the Holden VF Commodore HSV GTS and the Ford Falcon FPV GT R-Spec. And while both FPV and the Falcon might be on their way out, there's still plenty of time for a little head-to-head comparison between the two.
The cars aren't all that well evenly matched, though. The Ford boasts a 5.0-liter, supercharged V8, which the Aussies measure out at 449 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. The HSV, though, with its Corvette-derived, 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 is just too powerful - 576 hp and 545 lb-ft of torque.
Predictably, it doesn't end too well for the Ford. As the guys from Motoring point out, the new VF Commodore is just too new and too good, with its extra power and its adaptive dampers (GM's excellent MagnaRide). Interestingly, Motoring did point out that the Holden's electric steering is better than the Ford's hydraulic steering, which is a lot like a Porsche purist saying they prefer water-cooled engines to air cooled.

Chip Ganassi Racing switches to the Ford EcoBoost-powered Riley Daytona Prototype

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates (CGRFS) announced yesterday at Ford's SEMA press conference that it will field a Ford-Riley Daytona Prototype with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 in the 2014 United SportsCar Championship (USCC). CGRFS is the second team to commit to the new Ford-Riley car, behind Michael Shank Racing (which has already used the racecar to break a 26-year-old top-speed record at Daytona International Speedway).
"Over the last 10 seasons we have been able to experience a great deal of success in Grand-Am," Chip Ganassi says, "and now with the dawn of the new United SportsCar Championship we feel that Ford power will be a key ingredient to writing the next chapter of our sports car program."
In the last Grand-Am season, CGRFS raced a BMW-Riley Daytona Prototype. The team has won seven Daytona Prototype championships, all in the past ten years. Scott Pruett and Memo Rojas return as the team's prototype co-drivers, and will attend their maiden race in the Ford-Riley at the Rolex 24 at Daytona in January.
