THIS IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION!
I purchased this car from a seller here on eBay in September 2013, just a few short months ago. We had just returned from the Woodward Dream Cruise in Detroit, MI and I decided that it was time for a new weekend cruiser/ hobby car and I've always loved the body lines of the 1967 Cadillac Eldorado so I got this one. When I received the car it needed quite a few small repairs to get it on the road - new brake switch, fuse box work, turn signals, new bulbs, Unfortunately, my time is more limited that I thought it would be and I don't even get to take her out of the garage much, so I've decided to let her go. All in all, this is a very nice car! She is an head-turner every where we go and she is always ready for a nice easy cruise. The car runs and drives, handles pretty well, but as it is a 47 year old car, I'm sure that a lot can be improved on with a little time and effort - things like the drum brakes, suspension, etc. Before I get into the list of what's wrong, note that I've only owned her for less than 5 months (most of which were winter) and I've actually only driven her a handful of times for a grand total of less that 40 miles. Most of our trips have been up and down the street, cruising the neighborhood with the kids, or driving to a gathering of classic cars. Accessories and Options: Cruise Control (untested), remote drivers mirror (has crack), Power locks (work), power windows (work), Tilt steering wheel, map light on dash (works), 5 person lap seatbelts (all work). Engine: Runs fine. Starts up every time and runs strong. I do occasionally find an oil spot on the ground, but I think that's just surface grime dripping off of the hot engine. Transmission: Strong, easy shifts, great. Body: Very straight. I believe she was repainted at some point the original color - Baroque Gold. I believe the top is relatively new as well. Mouldings: All of the original mouldings and trim pieces are there. Again, I was told by the previous owner that they are all original. Wheels and Tires: original hubcaps and tires are in good condition with plenty of tread. Interior: The interior looks all original and is very good for 47 years old. The seats are tear free and the carpet, while stained a little, only has one tear near the drivers pedals. The dash is cracked (as seen in the pictures). Some surface rust on some of the metal parts. The dash could use some work - noted in electrical. Electrical: Headlights, taillights, brake lights, corner markers, interior map light and courtesy lights on lower dash all work perfectly. Turn signals work but the lever doesn't "click", so you have to hold it in the direction that you are turning to get it to flash (I purchased the kit to fix this, but just can't find the time - it will be included). A few interior lights don't work - not sure if it is switches or bulbs. Dash doesn't light. Speedometer cable clicks - needs to be replaced. I have a replacement Speedometer face/Odometer cluster that I purchased to replace the original with, but just haven't had the time - it will be included in the sale. Steering wheel and horn work, one pad screw is broken. Vacuum: The headlight doors open when you turn on the lights, but when you turn them off, they don't close automatically. I believe this is a vacuum leak, not sure. Documentation: Car still has the California title from previous owner. Not yet registered in Texas. The car comes with the original manuals and case in the glove compartment. Air Conditioning: Factory air is present and works, but doesn't blow cold. Beyond that, please look at the pictures. This car is a beauty and I only wish I had the ability to keep her and fix the little things needed to make her perfect. If you have any other specific questions, please contact me and I will answer them, provide more pics, whatever you require. Shipping is by the buyer. The down payment is due within 24 hours of auction end. If you can't buy the car, PLEASE don't bid on her! THIS USED CAR CARRIES NO WARRANTY and is sold AS IS WHERE IS! Thanks for looking and good luck! ************* LISTING REVISIONS AND ADDITIONS ********************** - Added the Body Plate photo per request - Added the car color name - "Baroque Gold" - Added the VIN number to the listing - Answered 3 questions from watchers - Added Air Conditioning info to listing |

Cadillac drops the base engine in the 2017 ATS
Tue, Jun 28 2016Cadillac, in an effort to boost sales of the slow moving ATS, is making some changes to the 2017 model. Most notably, the luxury manufacturer is dropping the base 2.5-liter normally-aspirated four-cylinder engine from the lineup, leaving the 272 hp 2.0-liter turbocharged four as the base engine. The base 2.0-liter ATS will start at $35,590, $1,380 more than the 2016 model, though that's partially offset by more standard equipment. The base model now comes standard with Cadillac's controversial CUE infotainment system with an 8-inch touchscreen display, a Bose surround-sound speaker system, and a backup camera. Despite the bump in price for the base model, all other ATS trim levels will see prices reduced between $650 and $1,100, depending on the model. The ATS was designed to be Cadillac's answer to the BMW 3-Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class. Though the ATS was originally released at a time where the Germans were slightly off their game, it's never quite matched up in terms of performance or customer perception posting disappointing sales figures compared to the competition. Cadillac has had problems getting customers into cars, and few ATS customers are converts from luxury competition. In order to offload inventory and lure in new customers, the company has previously been forced to offer big lease deals. Many of these customers have come over from more mainstream brands like Chevrolet and Ford. ATS sales have fallen 23 percent through May versus 2015. The car's market share has fallen every year since 2013, currently occupying just 4.5 percent of the compact luxury market. Unless Cadillac can offer some truly amazing deals, we don't expect many shoppers to buy American over the strong German competition. Related video: Cadillac Luxury Sedan
