This can be classified as a "Barn Find". It was driven into the garage in 1982, and hasn't left. There is some NOS chrome pieces for the side moldings, 2 spare intake manifolds, and one spare Carter AFB. The Black top is in good condition, but the plastic zip-out rear window needs replacing. The seats appear in good condition with the exception of seam separation in the drivers position. There are rust through points in the driver side rear floor pan (about 5 inches), in front of each rear wheel (about half dollar size), the trunk floor (about 6 inches), gas tank, and both lower outside front bumper ends.
It is equipped with: Power Top, Power Windows, Power Seat, Leather Interior, Cruise-O-Matic (automatic headlight dimmer), AM-FM stereo, His/hers ashtrays, power trunk release, power steering, and automatic with overdrive transmission. An original shop manual comes with the car.
I purchased this car to serve as my bridal vehicle. However, that relationship didn't last. I didn't have the heart to use the car after that, but couldn't bring myself to sell it either. As the car turned 50 this year, I feel it deserves a custodian who will give it some love, and enjoy it's cloud-like ride. Unlike most Caddys of the era, she is long and low with striking lines. The body style isn't limited to pure restoration either as Apollo Ohno recently commissioned a nice resto-mod of a brown 63 Caddy convertible.
All taxes, title, fees, and transport are the buyers responsibility. It is located in NE Pennsylvania near Scranton. I will accept cash, certified or cashiers check or money order, and PayPal. Credit card transactions incur a 3.5% fee.

C7 Corvette won't spawn new Cadillac XLR [w/video]
Fri, 23 Aug 2013Between 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.
2014 Cadillac ELR
Mon, 29 Sep 2014Well, this is awkward.
A few years ago, Audi Of America's boss Johan de Nysschen went on record describing the Chevrolet Volt as "a car for idiots." Fast-forward to earlier this summer, and the well-regarded executive suddenly found himself in a new office with new business cards bearing the title: President, Cadillac. That means that among other challenges, de Nysschen is now tasked with selling the ELR, a car that is, at its core, a Volt in a sportier, less utile frock wearing a price tag that's twice as expensive.
Frankly, it's not a prospect we imagine the South African executive and recent Infiniti boss relishes. Just about nobody is buying the ELR - Cadillac has sold but 774 examples of its plug-in hybrid coupe this year and it presently has an almost a 200-day supply according to Automotive News. What's more, those numbers actually represent big improvements over just a few months ago, before GM started heaping on the incentives. The cynic in us says that the bad news for De Nysschen is that he's got a borderline sales-proof car in his new corporate garage. The good news? Cadillac customers apparently aren't idiots.
GM recalling 524k vehicles over hood latches and toe link nuts
Fri, 03 Oct 2014Just 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.
