1971 CADILLAC ELDORADO CONVERTIBLE-1971 was the first year of production for this body style-known as "The Last of the Great American Convertibles". This car is a stunning 2 owner car that was well maintained while the owner was driving it but he died in 1989 and the car was put in dry storage and wasn't driven between 1989 until 2012 (when we bought it). We've spent over $3,000.00 since we bought it replacing items that it needed to make it safe, reliable and road-worthy. It's former owner was very active in our local American Legion so it was used for almost 20 years as a parade car for Flag Day, Veteran's Day and the 4th of July in our hometown-it even has flag holders installed on the right side of each headlight to hold parade flags and a VERY loud PA speaker that's hidden in the grill of the car (Photo #24 shows the Legionnaires getting ready for a parade in 1983). It also has some type of music device with a small keyboard controller that lets you choose from 88 different computerized songs along a parade route. We've installed new tires ($879.00), a complete braking system w/ new rotors,calipers, master cylinder,vacuum booster, brake proportioning valve, and some brake lines ($1,376.00), had it tuned up ($341.00) and the fuel pump was replaced ($247.32). We also had it professionally detailed/cleaned (they cleaned the top and used a cleaner/sealer on it) ($211.00), recently had a new power antenna installed at the stereo place when we couldn't figure out how to turn off the CB radio ($67.00) it was removed but it's all in the trunk if you plan on going cross-country with it.) It currently has an AM/FM Cassette player with what we believe to be the original speakers. It has a strong-running 8.2 L/500 CID engine (365 HP/535 LB-FT) and it shifts well when purring around the city or under full acceleration. It had an oil leak so they replaced the oil pan gasket and they also replaced the transmission pan gasket at that time ($344.00). The car was completely repainted in the original Cambridge Red Metallic in fall of 1987 after a deer incident and it also had it's original vinyl top replaced at that time. The original engine was rebuilt at 138,000 miles by our local Cadillac dealer and it currently shows 56,162 miles (which is actually 156,162 miles in this case) so if my math is correct, it has 18,162 miles on the rebuilt engine. The A/C doesn't blow very cold and the top can be stubborn returning to the "UP" position sometimes (We've had to "assist" it once or twice last year and we don't know where to take it to fix that in this area) We've had the top in the "down" position with the boot installed for well over a year now and the mechanic told us to cycle it up and down frequently to work that out. There are also 3 missing/broken push-down snaps on the boot cover. The top is clean, sealed, and in very good condition but we were told it needs new weatherstripping between the front (2) windows and windshield. There's some plastic worn off the steering wheel and it also has a crack in the vinyl door panel on the driver's side armrest (see picture). The rest of the interior has the amount of wear you'd expect on a 42 year-old original interior but no tears/rips in the leather but shows some wear on the center fold-down armrest. It has no rust on the body but we were told it's had new panels installed under both front seats at some time. So as you can see, it's a very nice car with a few correctable flaws but remember, it's 42 years old and we've driven this car EVERWHERE since we bought it-it's very reliable. You'll love the attention it gets-it's truly a head-turner wherever we take it and it always gets alot of compliments. We've also had it in 4 car shows, 2 PARADES!, and taken it on numerous family trips all over the state without a single problem. Sadly enough, with a daughter starting college next month and another daughter getting married at the end of October, we've being forced by our terrible kids to send our beautiful convertible to a new home. If you have any questions, feel free to call us at (920) 585-6633. Good Luck and Happy Bidding!

Cadillac Elmiraj has production potential
Tue, 20 Aug 2013There 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.
Best 3rd row SUVs of 2022
Wed, Oct 19 2022If you plan on using a vehicle's third row a lot, let us at least make the suggestion that a minivan would be a smarter bet than anything you're going to see on this list of best three-row SUVs. Their third rows are bigger, more comfortable and easier to get to. The kids will definitely be happier. Here are our two top choices. OK, now that that's out of the way, we totally get why minivans are totally depressing and that if the kids want to be happier, they can buy their own darn vehicle. You're buying, you're driving, you're being seen in it and you'd rather have a three-row SUV. Fair enough. Luckily, there are more choices than ever and they're really good. The best do a particularly good job of being family friendly without looking like a drab transportation appliance, although really, you can't go wrong with any of the mainstream three-row SUVs. Now, some of the luxury choices are a bit suspect, including those that are otherwise very appealing but have cramped third-row seats (the Genesis GV80 comes to mind). We're focusing on three-row SUVs here, so having a usable third row is a must.  In this list, we have broken things down into four sub-categories: Best Three-Row Crossover |  Best Full-size Three-Row SUV Best Luxury Three-Row SUV |  Best Flagship Luxury Three-Row SUV Note that we define crossovers as SUVs since most buyers use the terms interchangeably, but acknowledge that "crossover" is literally a vehicle with a car-like unibody structure as opposed to the truck-like, body-on-frame construction that traditionally has defined "SUV." In other words, we consider all crossovers SUVs, but not all SUVs are crossovers (specifically those in the full-size segment and some in the flagship luxury segment). Best Three-Row Crossover SUVs of 2024 2024 Honda Pilot Why it stands out: Exceptional storage and cargo space; unique second-row functionality; refined ride; versatile and capable TrailSport; advanced AWDCould be better: Subpar acceleration with lackadaisical transmission and engine response; so-so driver assistance tech Read our full 2024 Honda Pilot Review The Honda Pilot was completely redesigned for 2023. It maintains its predecessor's family friendly packaging and overall focus, but it has injected a welcome sense of style (especially in the TrailSport pictured above) that makes it stand out much better from the big crossover crowd.
