what your looking at is a 1950 cadillac that was sitting in a barn for 46 years. its pretty solid and have minimal rust. most only in the rockers which i have replacements but i didnt want to use them because the car is so clean and original. it has all stainless and all trim inside and out, including the gangster visor and the stainless window visors fender skirts and the trim for them as well. the interior is pretty clean and there is no carpets in it, everything on the inside is in pretty good shape. ive driven cars with way worse interiors, even the headliner is in good shape and the dash is clean as a whistle. the steering wheel bakelite is cracking up but its still useable. the car has only 56000 miles and i think im the third owner of it. its had a bunch of work to get it up to running and driving condition. its got a rebuilt carb, new water pump and fuel pump, tons of fresh gaskets and paint on the motor making it have a clean appearance as well. converted to 12 volt using a new one wire alternator and new coil and condensor as well as i have the 12v starter solenoid but so far i havdent installed it the 6 volt is working fine still and it fires right up easily as you can see in the video i posted on my youtube, the battery is new as well and only 575 amps and starts the car quite easily. the brakes have been gone through and it has a rebuilt master cylinder and new rear wheel cyliners as well as wheel bearings. it stops easily and works as it should. the transmission is an automatic 2 speed and runs fine and shifts fine. it needs a gas tank and exhaust so i have driven it around for fun but never very far because of my 1 gallon can and the fumes from the exhaust. it starts runs and stops. my plan was to slam it, not repair any of the rust and replace the hydraulic window regulators with electric ones, throw some mexican blankets on the seat and call it a day. there is a small bullet hole in the roof. looks like a 22. if i didnt tell you, you proabbaly wouldnt notice for a while. but i always thought it was kinda cool. all the glass is there but there is a crack in the rear passenger side glass. the rest has been down in the doors since i got it and i cant guarantee its condition but seems to be fine. ill give you the 6 volt stuff i removed as well. this is a cool car you just dont see many of sitting around at car shows and is a gem in its current condition and i wouldnt change a thing about it appearance personally. questions or you want to come see it call me. 407-405-3982. once you see it youll take it home.

GM recalling 54k Cadillac SRX, HD pickup models
Thu, 01 May 2014There are more recalls to report General Motors, but these latest actions pertain to newer examples of the Cadillac SRX, Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD. With so much scrutiny on the company's recall strategy, GM is under increasing pressure to call in defective models more quickly, and it appears to be doing so here.
Here in the US, the automaker is recalling 50,571 Cadillac SRX crossovers from the 2013 model year fitted with the 3.6-liter V6 because the transmission control module programming can cause a three- or four-second lag in acceleration at low speeds. The explanation filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration states, "if the following sequence occurs within two seconds: during an upshift from first to second gear (8-10 mph), the driver then brakes the vehicle to less than 5 mph, and then accelerates again," the delay can occur. According to Automotive News, the recall effects 56,400 vehicles worldwide, and the company is not aware of any crashes caused by the problem. The fix consists of a transmission control module (TCM) reflash.
In a separate recall, GM is repairing 51 Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD pickups from the 2015 model year in the US. In vehicles with diesel engines and dual fuel tanks, the nuts that connect the fuel pipe to each side of the transfer pump between the tanks may be improperly torqued, which could cause a fuel leak. Obviously, this could be a fire hazard. The remedy is simply tightening the hardware. According to GM spokesperson Alan Adler, there have been no fires actually caused by the potential leak. "Only 21 of the trucks are in customer possession and they can be fixed anytime because there are no parts involved. The others are being fixed at dealerships," Adler said in an email to Autoblog.
Cadillac Elmiraj Concept slinks in Leno's Garage
Wed, 28 Aug 2013Jay Leno's Garage has moved to Pebble Beach for the week. This time around, the affable comedian is taking a look at the Cadillac Elmiraj Concept that debuted during the Monterey car week, and is talking to General Motors vice president of global design, Ed Welburn.
There's plenty of reminiscing about what concept cars were like when these two were kids, before a fairly deep dive into the striking Elmiraj Concept itself. Welburn shares a few anecdotes about the design process behind the two-door concept, including how his designers changed his mind on the grille design.
After bringing up the Cimarron, Leno makes a solid point that the Elmiraj would be a solid production car that could even spawn a four-door variant. We couldn't agree more. Take a look below for the full video from Jay Leno's Garage.
