Much money has been spent to make this Eldorado convertible safe and reliable after sitting for 8 years. She
still needs some little things, but you can enjoy this Caddy as you fix her up a bit more.
*** Sports Car / Project Car / Trades Considered ***
This Eldorado convertible was recently re-commissioned after sitting garaged, in New Jersey for 8+ years. It was
purchased in Texas, driven up to New Jersey, used very little, then stored. The odometer shows 55K, I believe it to
be correct, the interior looks as so. The recent (2015) NJ title shows 154K
I just had this Eldorado professionally cleaned / polished on the outside to show the quality of the repaint
(some flaws as pictured) The chrome is very nice with some light weathering at the tops of the bumpers. This
interior will clean up much nicer as well as the engine bay, door jambs, trunk and undersides. There is new weather
stripping for the trunk, no leaks, but could use replacement.
Some of the work performed within the last 400 miles includes:
All Systems Were Cleaned and Flushed., the fuel tank cleaned, cooling system, oil changed (2X), transmission
fluid / filter changed and the brake system had new fluid when the hydraulics were replaced.
New Tires, Battery, Alternator, Tune-Up, R134 Refrigerant Upgrade (the air blows cold), A Complete Brake System
Overhaul (master cylinder, front calipers, rotors, pads rear wheel cylinders, drums and shoes)
This Eldorado is not perfect, but shows very well. All the body gaps and shut lines look great. The exterior trim
and moldings are in very nice condition with no dents, no heavy scrapes or gouges. The interior is soft and looks
great (just lightly cleaned) with only minimal wear. She has an earlier repaint (with some flaws, request
additional pictures), a newer convertible top with the glass rear window, a fiberglass top / boot cover is included
and a full size spare tire was purchased. The original owners manual, a factory shop manual and custom car cover
are included as well.
A Few Things Are Inoperable, Needing Attention: The Horn, The Clock, Passenger Side Power Door Lock, Rear Bumper
Fillers Are Cracked (new ones purchased & with the car), A Cracked Rear Reflector, Missing The Rear View Mirror,
The Muffler Sounds Raspy But Not Loud. This Caddy Needs To Be Driven.

Cadillac may not build Elmiraj coupe

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

Despite the fact that most everyone who has laid eyes on the Cadillac Elmiraj concept coupe loves it, General Motors insiders are still trying to prove the business case to build the car. And it's certainly not a guarantee.
"I want to see this car go into production badly. Very badly," Ed Welburn, GM's Global Head of Design, told Autoblog. But the Cadillac design studio is busier than it's ever been before, and the company is working on prioritizing which cars deserve to get the billion-dollar price tag needed to research and develop a new model.
No matter what happens, Welburn says the car has made its mark on Cadillac

GM intends to offer semi-autonomous vehicles by 2020

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

Prepare for a few years of technological saber-rattling, as the world's automakers begin pushing to bring self-driving cars to market. Earlier this week, Nissan announced that it aims to offer autonomous vehicles by 2020, while Google, BMW and several other marks are working on similar efforts.
General Motors is doing things differently, though. Rather than push for a fully autonomous car, it's continuing to refine its semi-autonomous Super Cruise, a product that we tested in April 2012 and that will eventually see use on some Cadillacs before trickling down to the rest of the General Motors family. Super Cruise, which is undergoing testing in the Cadillac SRX, doesn't take complete control out of the driver's hands. Rather, under a very specific set of circumstances on the freeway, it will marry the capabilities of things like lane departure warning and adaptive cruise control to allow the driver to take their hands off the wheel. All of which sounds a lot like the system Mercedes-Benz is launching on the 2014 S-Class.
The system is still in development, according to John Capp, GM's director of electrical controls and active safety technology. Now that that the biggest hurdle, steering control, has been cleared, GM's engineers can focus on things like teaching the system to adapt to differing road conditions and visibility levels. As we reported in 2012, Super Cruise is still befuddled in low-visibility situations or when road markings aren't particularly clear.
