Herriman, Utah, United States

1961 Cadillac Coupe de Ville. 2 door Hardtop.  I've had the car a year. I love it.  The car is giant and I've got four cars in a one car driveway.  I need to make room.  So sadly this one has to go.

I bought the car from an older fellow who'd had it covered for years.  It was not working when I got it.  The car has the original Cadillac 390 ci engine. I've replaced some hoses , belts and wiring. I replaced the lower control arm bushings. I rebuilt the master cylinder. I've also rebuilt the generator.   Currently it has an alternator installed, but it is a 10 minute switch to get the generator in again, and it is of course included with the car. I have all the hubcaps. I have the fender skirts.  Comes with an extra front grille also comes with original radio, currently not installed.  Runs and drives but will need a tuneup and brake adjustment at least. 

The car is not perfect yet.  The clearcoat is peeling all over the car. The car is 99.9 % rust free, however on the bottom rear lip of the trunk lid there is some rust to be repaired a picture is included. The brakes work but need to be adjusted, they pull a little to the right.  The interior was redone before it was covered an out away by the previous owner (12+ years ago).  The dash was recovered and looks great. The vinyl on the seats is starting to crack a little (as can be seen in the close up pictures around top of the seats).  I've been tinkering with task me wiring in the dash and a few of the gauges (fuel sender, water temp, dash light) got disconnected.  

Per car code the car was originally white exterior and black interior.  It was my intention to restore it to full glory as this is an awesome Car.  The Body is super straight and. The car is original as in Original engine chassis and body numbers matching.  It has never been chopped up or rodded out.  All original suspension and brakes. 

Car is currently in Riverton, Utah and is available for inspection by you or your mechanic. 

Buyer will be responsible for all shipping costs, transfer fees, and or all applicable sales taxes.

GM recalling 524k vehicles over hood latches and toe link nuts

Fri, 03 Oct 2014

Just hours after confirming to Autoblog its intention to recall 97,540 vehicles in the US (117,651 in North America) for a possible manufacturing defect in the chassis control module of several models, General Motors is issuing two more campaigns that affect another 379,401 units in the US (524,384 in North America).
One campaign covers 290,107 US examples of the 2010-2015 Cadillac SRX and the 2011-2012 Saab 9-4X because the "rear toe link adjuster lock nuts" may be improperly torqued. If not up to spec, the toe adjuster link could separate and allow the wheel to shift while driving, making the handling unstable. GM says that it knows of three crashes and two injuries as a result of this problem. Dealers are inspecting the nuts and installing a new link assembly, if necessary. Autoblog first reported about this potential issue when it showed up on a list of recalls from Transport Canada.
The second recall is for 89,294 examples of the 2013-2015 Chevrolet Spark in the US manufactured from January 17, 2012, through July 29, 2014. According to GM, "corrosion can cause the secondary hood latch striker to stick in the open position." If this happens, and the primary latch also isn't engaged for some reason, the hood could fly open while driving. About 13,000 of these affected Sparks are at dealers and are being held until repaired. The fix requires replacing the hood striker. GM isn't aware of crashes, injuries or fatalities caused by this problem.

Cadillac Elmiraj has production potential

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

There are many reasons to love the Cadillac Elmiraj Concept, but not the least of which is how production-ready this big coupe appears to be. Take out the overly fancy interior and a few conceptual elements of the exterior, and this looks like a coupe that could be in dealers now as the successor to the Eldorado.
On top of that, Automotive News is quoting Bob Ferguson, Cadillac senior vice president, as saying that a production version of this car is "very doable." AN adds that if the Monterey showstopper gets the green-light, this car would compete against the upcoming Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe and would based on Cadillac's upcoming rear-wheel-drive flagship sedan due out in 2015. The range-topping coupe would debut sometime after the sedan model. Cross your fingers.
