I'm selling my 82 Eldorado.

67,500 original miles, and clean title in hand.  Just paid for 2013 registration, so you're good w/ that til next March

I am the second owner.  Original owner was an older lady who drove sparingly.  The car sat in her garage from 1997 til 2011.  It was smogged every year, but rarely driven.  The family finally donated it to the Salvation Army, and that's where I purchased it. 

I have the original owners manuel, and the original paperwork from her purchase.  

The car was in decent shape when I bought it, but needed some work, so let my expenditures be your gain!  

The following repairs have been made since September (have receipts to prove)
  • 4 new tires
  • added freon, fixing AC (compressor had/does work fine, but needed freon to cool blast)
  • New front and rear shocks
  • New master brake cylinder
  • New Alternator & Muffler
  • New Radiator
  • New Water Pump
That's a lot of work that you won't have to pay for.

All work was done at E&E automotive, in Santa Monica.  Should any problems arise with this car, I highly recommend Ed.  He's honest, fast, and specializes in old Cadillacs.  

Okay, those are the basics - Here's the rest.

The body is nearly flawless.  There's a few paint chips on the driver side door (see pic) but that's it.  Was like that when I bought it.  

Interior is all original.  Black leather seats that are more comfortable than any chair I have in my house.  Makes sitting in traffic not so bad.  

Power windows, power seats, power everything.

This is a 31 year old car, and there are bound to be a few quirks, but none of these have had any impact on driving performance, or ability.
  • Cruise Control is broken, but when do you ever use cruise control in Los Angeles?  Also, every time you drive this car you're cruising, so there you go.  
  • Gas Gauge doesn't go all the way to empty.  Isn't a problem, because there is a resettable mile reader on the dash.  Every time you fill up the car, reset the mile marker to zero, and you'll know when to fill up.  Once you get to 220 miles, get to a station.  
  • The trunk does not stay open on its own.  Cheap and easy to fix, if it bothers you.  Hasn't bothered me, so I haven't fixed it. 
  • Clock/Radio Display is missing middle number (see pic) 
I'm happy to answer any additional questions you might have.

Thanks for looking,
Will

GM outlines strategy for new products, growth in China

Wed, 01 Oct 2014



"Our strategic plan is a pathway to earn customers for life and create significant shareholder value in the process." - Mary Barra
General Motors laid out ambitious plans on Wednesday to become the world's "most valued automotive company," a goal it says it can reach by strengthening its business in China, rebuilding the Cadillac luxury brand and fixing the foundering GM Europe operations.

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.

Hennessy wastes no time in supercharging the 2015 Cadillac Escalade

Wed, 23 Apr 2014

The ink is still drying on the all-new 2015 Cadillac Escalade sales brochures, but that hasn't stopped Texas-based Hennessey Performance (HPE) from leaping out of the gate with its own high-performance variant. In stock form, the big fourth-generation Cadillac flagship arrives with a new small block naturally aspirated 6.2-liter Ecotec3 V8 delivering 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. Fresh out of the showroom, the 5,900-pound SUV will sprint to 60 mph in 5.9 seconds.
While that is plenty fast for some owners, others don't want to be shamed by a 550 horsepower Mercedes-Benz GL63 AMG or a 510 horsepower Land Rover Range Rover Sport - both will leave the stock Escalade at a stoplight.
The team at HPE has come to the rescue with its HPE550 supercharger upgrade, which includes a belt-driven supercharger, air-to-water intercooler, recalibrated engine management software and a three-year/36,000 mile powertrain warranty. With 6 psi of boost, the direct-injected 6.2-liter is tuned to deliver an impressive 557 horsepower and 542 pound-feet of torque - gains of 32 percent and 18 percent, respectively, over stock. Although HPE isn't releasing performance figures as of yet, our math says that should be enough power to put the two Europeans in the Cadillac's rearview mirror. The company also offers a set of 20-inch lightweight H10 forged monoblock wheels, to further improve performance.
