1967 Cadillac Deville convertible


Up for Auction: SUPER LOW FAIR RESERVE !!!

This 67 Caddy convertible has had the same owner since 
1967 when he bought it with 4000 miles on it. It was originally
sold new in Flint Michigan where from the factory it was
undercoated and only went thru 2 Michigan winters, but even
then it wasnt driven in the winter snow.  In 1969 the owner
moved to Tucson and the car has been here ever since.
Its been parked in a carport for about the last 15 yrs rarely
driven due to owners age etc. His wife drove it most of the
time when it was driven anyways.

Next time you watch  the movie Goodfellas or Casino
watch how many of these cars are driven by gentlemen
who knew cars knew what to drive. Another good movie
to see these cars in for the period is A Bronx Tail.

Car starts and runs, but it does idle rough. We rebuilt the
carb and after removing any old gas in the tank and lines
but not sure exactly why it runs like it does. I can start
it and drive it around the parking lot and it would drive
possibly drive onto a car hauler. problem.
I may do a mild tune up on
it this week to see if we can get it to run better.
If its not carb or std tune up stuff, I guess its possible it jumped
timing a tooth causing the issue. Its possible, the original owner
couldnt recall if he had ever done the timing chain.
Check back later in the week we will add to the cars description
on if we got it running better. 
No smoke from the exhaust at least and no major leaks under
the car.

The fuel tank may need to be dropped and flushed out one
good time too.
But seeing as the car runs and moves on its own, this makes
shipping much easier and less costly.
At the moment we have it running off a small container of
gas under the hood.  If I have time Ill try to empty the tank
and try to get it running off the rear tank.

RESTORE it back to stock or do something along the restomod
way, or rat rod and have an awesome 1 of a kind car
your friends only wished they had for such a low investment.

This car is much more solid then the last 67 we sold. The only
spots we can find real rust is both lower front fenders, which
is a pretty common spot even on AZ cars. But check out all the
pics, the trunk floors etc are very solid and clean other then
a little surface rust.
Check out the pics.
These cars are getting harder to find esp in this shape
which is still affordable for the builder.

DRIVETRAIN:  the original motor runs and sounds good.
Last yr for the 429 V8 4v matted to the 3 spd auto.
Motor does have all the AC stuff including PS, PB and
more. Its a very nice area that would restore with a
little work. Maybe just finish the tune up stuff after 
that and should be able to drive it. Well check all the
brakes too. But it stops right now, pedal feels good but
the booster may be going bad.

INTERIOR: All original blue interior shows some wear
and tear for a car with 96k on it, but even for AZ its
nicer then most out there. Obviously its not restored
and as is the interior is fine for a daily driver. Take it
to the next level with a new top, carpet and redo the
front seats for a really clean cruiser.
The chrome inside here too is in amazing shape for its
age. No pitting I could see because of the Az climate.
All the PW currently work and go up and down, they are
slow so may need some lubrication on the regulators
and tracks. PS works well too. The dash is very clean and
represents well for a weekend cruiser or driver.
Radio should work, but think the speaker is shot.
Again, all 4 PW go up and down, but they probably could
use some grease on the tracks etc.
POWER TOP has worked fine every time Ive put it up and
down so nothing bad to report there.


EXTERIOR: Original color is the Blue you see in the pics.
The car has alot of patina and showing its age in areas and
is even down to the original primer and metal in a few spots.
I dont see any signs of bondo anywhere on the car.
Front windshield has a crack in it from age and the
dr side side view mirror is cracked too.
The "missing" front lower bumper grill comes with the car
its loose in the trunk.
Hood hinges are bent, someone tried to close the hood
after some blocks of wood holding on a car cover slid down
the windshield and they didnt notice. Hence the reason
they bent the hinges. They are available used all over the bay.


SUSPENSION: all factory the best I can tell and Im sure some bushings
are old and shocks, but again this stuff is easy to fix these days
then rusted out bodies.
Leave it stock or put some 22" wheels on it.


Check out ALL the pics below ----->

it may take a full minute for them all to load if you have a
slow connection, so be patient AND looks for the extra schroll
bar on the right side.
Az gets maybe 12" a yr of rain and Az very dry climate.
more info AFTER the pics etc. There are 100 large pics.














































































































































































There you have it, probably The BEST represented Converts on Ebay.
 
Shows you all the good as well as any bad, hope you appreciate them.
We put a lot of time and effort in marketing our cars and it shows.
People wait months for a car this solid to come up for sale
and even if you have to pay shipping to your area, it still beats
paying a body shop to hopefully fix a rusty car for weeks on end.
Having as much as the original steel on a restored car these days
speaks volumes. 

Also, if you buy a car thats been "restored", who knows what sort
of surprises are hidden under new paint or thick undercoating.
People are flipping cars all the time when most of the jobs are
fast, for a quick buck and quality suffers. 

Our auctions have NOTHING to hide .
Restore a car like this yourself or locally and you know
exactly what you have in the end.

Email us with ANY questions before you bid please
If you treat yourself to buying one of our vehicles
youll never buy a total rust bucket again from anyone !!
Our Impeccable FEEDBACK speaks for itself.
Doing restoration on this type of project is less labor
intensive which means overall cost is less too !
With less horrid surprises later on.
Dont let auctions with little to no pics try to fool you. 
With other auctions,  you really dont know what to expect
until you take the car apart. While we go over our cars ALL OVER
with great pics to help making your decision easier.
Along with ANY other questions you may have.

Confident new Cadillac marketing boss ready to take on Tesla, BMW

Thu, Jun 26 2014

When there's a former BMW executive heading Cadillac's efforts to boost sales of its only plug-in, it's a pretty safe guess that the marketing emphasis won't be on environmental friendliness and tree-hugging tendencies. The General Motors luxury brand has appointed ex-Bimmer executive Uwe Ellinghaus to be its marketing chief late last year, and the German-born Ellinghaus is now saying that he's targeting potential customers of Tesla Motors, in addition to BMW, for potential growth in sales of the Cadillac ELR extended-range plug-in. Appointed to Cadillac's head of marketing last November, Ellinghaus recently told Advertising Age that GM needs to highlight the Cadillac's looks and performance. He complimented Tesla for putting more emphasis on those attributes in the Model S than on its lack of emissions or lack of refueling costs (but Tesla hasn't shied away from highlighting the EV's savings). Ellinghaus says that trying to gear advertising "for people who are tree-huggers and green-wash an entire brand" won't be successful. You don't say. So far, the ELR hasn't made much of a dent in US car sales. Through May, Cadillac, which spent about $280 million on all of its US marketing last year, sold 293 units, whereas Tesla had been approaching the 11,000-unit figure for the Model S. With that in mind, Cadillac may be working on a sportier version of the ELR, as spy shots of a test vehicle from May revealed larger brakes and wheels. You can read our First Drive impressions of the ELR here.

Five awesome Lego car creations

Thu, 23 Oct 2014

Lego cars are among our favorite toys. They're fun for play, and if built properly, great to display. With that in mind, we've crafted a list of some of the best creations we've seen. Some are on sale now, while others are merely the work of fanciful enthusiasts. There are even a couple that you definitely cannot buy (we'll explain).
Our choices are diverse, including everything from a diminutive 1969 Chevy Corvette to a fullsize Ferrari Formula One racecar. These are just five projects that caught our eye - there are many more out there - so if you don't see your favorite Lego car on the list (or if you have your own creation), please tell us about it, in Comments.

Watch Brad Pitt's Chinese Cadillac XTS commercial

Thu, 14 Mar 2013

Once upon a time, in a land not so far from this one, Brad Pitt was the very face anti-consumerism. You see, when he slipped into the role of the elitist-loathing, food-abusing, violence-embracing Tyler Durden from Fight Club, his visage was inextricably married to images of leveling credit card corporations with nothing more than a little human fat and some determination. Of course, that was before Pitt settled into old age with a passel of children at his feet. Now, it seems, he'll shill for something as long as it doesn't damage his reputation in America.
Need proof? Look no further than this Chinese ad for the Cadillac XTS. In it, Pitt contentedly wafts the big front-wheel drive barge around San Francisco against a mildly euphoric soundtrack. You can check out the scene for yourself below, just make sure you have your last meal squarely situated in your stomach before pressing play. We have to wonder if Pitt wakes up in the middle of the night with Chuck Palahniuk's oddly omniscient words echoing in his ears: "Then you're trapped in your lovely nest, and the things you used to own, now they own you."
