1967 Cadillac Deville convertible


Up for Auction:

This 67 Caddy convert was pulled out of Kingman Az where it
had been sitting for many yrs and brought to Tucson.
The car has sat here in the Az climate for over 20+ yrs.
Odometer shows 47k on it which could be original.
What we know about the car you cant see in the pics is:
New spark plugs and oil and air filter.
We ran the gas line from the fuel pump to a container of
fuel under the hood, cranked it a few time and it fired up.
The water pump is frozen, so to keep things simple we cut
the old belts off. The motor runs and is actually quiet and
smooth for how un restored or tuned up it is.
We put the car in gear and have moved it around our parking
lot a few times, with no hiccups. Brakes work too.
Someone put 4 new tires on the car about a yr ago.
I suggest checking the fuel tank and maybe clean it out before
just adding gas and hooking the fuel line up to it.
But seeing as the car runs and moves on its own, this makes
shipping much easier and less costly.

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.

OBVIOUSLY this car has seen better days, but its would still be
a great car to restore. Rust on the bottom of both front fenders
and the rear lower part floor boards got the worst if it.
Trunk pan got some too, but honestly if you are doing a mild
restoration you could save it.
Just from water etc sitting in those areas over the yrs. But the
car hasnt seen salt and the frame rails, rockers are solid.
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. It will need a new waterpump and new belts
right away. 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 normal.

INTERIOR: RED was the original color, cool.
The original is worn and sunbeat. But all the trim
seems to be there needed for a proper resto.
Rear seat bottom is missing. I tried all the PW and they all
move a little when you hit their buttons. So they are getting
power but Im sure the tracks are dry.
Convertible top frame and motor all intact too, making
the restoration less costly. I think the old pioneer 8 track
has been spoken for already.
SO the interior is rough, but a little time and effort could
go a long way during the restoration.


EXTERIOR: Original color was red, and think most of the
paint is original still. I do see where there was some previous
repair to the LR quarter panel near the bumper.
Mild rust compared to an eastcoast barn find making the
deconstruction easier as well as the resto easier.
All the glass is there, but the windshield is original and 
cracked on the pass side. Obviously it needs a top and
full restoration.

SUSPENSION: all factory the best I can tell and if its 
really 47k original miles, may not need much. 
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.

2017 Cadillac CTS-V Drivers' Notes | V is for velocity

Fri, Sep 29 2017

The 2017 Cadillac CTS-V is as close to a four-door Corvette Z06 as you're ever likely to get. Underneath the carbon-fiber hood rests one hell of an engine, a 640-horsepower supercharged V8. It's only slightly less powerful than what you'll find in the Corvette. Thanks to GM's chassis wizards, the car's handling is an equal match for the powerful engine. This particular car packs in a number of options, including Recaro seats and the performance data recorder that allows owners to measure lap times and record video. The most expensive option is the $6,950 Carbon Black Package. This nets you a carbon fiber hood vent, front splitter, spoiler and rear diffuser. This car isn't cheap, but it does undercut the less powerful Audi RS7 and Mercedes-AMG E63 S. Associate Editor Joel Stocksdale: This is a seriously fun, if also flawed, car. And the biggest contributor to the fun is the big lump of V8 under the hood. The supercharged 6.2-liter makes 640 horsepower, but Cadillac could've left the number off and just called it "effortless." The gentlest pressure on the gas pedal will result in you picking up an extra 10 mph without ever noticing. And when you stomp on it, you get this huge and immediate surge of acceleration. It's truly giggle-inducing. Although the CTS-V is big and heavy, it handles the power well. It gives you enough info on what's happening so you feel in control, and the chassis is impressively composed. The only real weak points I can find on the CTS-V (besides the low gas mileage) are the interior controls. They are abysmal. The infotainment screen is pretty poor, with a clutter of information at the main screen, and difficult-to-find commands for getting to other menus. But worse than that are the climate and volume buttons. They're all touch-sensitive spots on the center stack. They're not very responsive, and the vibratory feedback it provides isn't noticeable while driving. It doesn't help that the feedback feels pretty inconsistent, too. For me, I think I could learn to live with the infotainment, simply because I love the way the rest of the car feels and drives. But, Cadillac, you need to get to updating this ASAP. Associate Editor Reese Counts: OK, Cadillac's infotainment system sucks. Let's get that out of the way. Touch capacitive interfaces don't work well in cars. This does have the old version of CUE, so I'm hoping the next-gen system will fix some of the interface issues. Like Joel, this wouldn't turn me off from buying the car.

Online Find Of The Day: 2008 Cadillac XLR picks up where Excalibur left off

Thu, 23 May 2013

We try very, very hard to keep snark away from creations like the one you see here. After all, someone poured plenty of enthusiasm, time and money into turning a 2008 Cadillac XLR into a modern interpretation of the new-old cars typically done by cottage builders like Excalibur and Clénet. Even so, it's hard not to wince when you set an eye on this machine. With its wheelbase stretched to accommodate the extra bodywork, goofy sidewalls and upkicked nose (examine it in profile, it looks slightly bent in the middle), this "neoclassic" takes whatever was loveable about the Cadillac underneath and buries it in a tacky grave.
Miraculously, the engine bay has been left unmolested, which means the retractable hardtop convertible still features a 4.6-liter Northstar V8 engine good for 320 horsepower. If only that were enough to outrun its shame. If, for some reason, you feel like taking this thing home, Harry Kaufmann Motorcars of Milwaukee says it can be yours for a paltry $74,998. We wish were joking. Check it out here.
