1952 Golden Anniversary Cadillac limousine without divider window. Car has been dry stored for years.  Car is totally complete with all mouldings, trim, foot rests, fender shirts, hubcaps, mechanical parts, and interior. True mileage is unknown. Clear Florida title. 


This is a great car to complete a restoration on. It is solid, and includes all original parts. The body is in good rust-free condition, although the floor pans and spare tire well in the trunk have the usual rust damage and will need some metal work. During transport on a dolly the lower quarter of each front fender was pushed in from the dolly and the stainless steel rocker trim was damaged. The car had been undercoated well and there is no outer body rust damage. The body is straight other than the mentioned front lower fenders. All doors open and close perfectly and body lines line up with even spacing. The frame is in very good condition; no rust other than light surface rust in the back in the vicinity of the fuel tank. Chrome: Other than the front lower rocker trim damage that will need to be straightened, the trim is all pretty good. Front bumper is in good original condition. Rear bumper will need to be rechromed. Front grill is decent, with some flaking on the bottom bar. An extra original 1952 replacement grill is included to make 1 good original grill. Glass is good. Headliner is good with exception of a minor tear in the lower sail panel on the right side. Upholstery has been replaced at some point in the past but is in good condition. There is no carpet. Paint is good but could use a good buffing. Tires are good whitewalls.

Original 331 engine and transmission removed; both were operational at time of removal and have been in dry storage. The engine would smoke some and the transmission worked fine but leaked. All parts have been saved. A used Chevy 350/350 has been roughed into place and includes older Chevy exhaust manifolds that will clear the original steering column and linkages. Engine can easily be removed for original drivetrain to be installed if you wish to restore to original condition. The power steering box was rebuilt by Lares Corp and reinstalled. Brakes have new spring kits and flex hoses, but brakes all need to be bleed. Hydraulic power windows work, although one line has a leak. 

Car will need to moved on a flatbed or a large car trailer. The vehicle is 20 feet long and the wheelbase will not fit on a standard car trailer as is typically available through the rental chains. Located in St Augustine, Florida. Will not ship or sell overseas. Paypal deposit and a certified bank check that clears will get you this awesome car.  Car can be temporarily stored for a few weeks as you make arrangements for transport. Feel free to contact with any question. The car is for sale locally as well and I will reserve the option to cancel bids and remove this posting if it sells through another venue.

2013 Cadillac ATS Premium 2.0T 6MT

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The new Cadillac ATS is an impressive sport sedan, often considered one of the most serious threats to the BMW 3 Series. Unlike GM's previous attempts, this four door brings aggressive styling, commendable chassis dynamics and class-leading handling to the highly competitive battle. And, like its daunting German foe, Cadillac offer several powertrain choices.
I recently spent time with the ATS 2.0T Premium on my home California turf. Fitted with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine mated to a six-speed manual gearbox with a limited-slip rear differential, my tester was lightly optioned, with only a paint upgrade and a cold weather package. That brought the as-tested price to $46,305, configured the way I imagine most enthusiasts would prefer. This meant I fully expected to enjoy a week with a tossable sport sedan that boasted "fun-to-drive" as its middle name, but all was not well...

GM's redesigned full-size 2021 SUVs face delay over coronavirus

Tue, Mar 31 2020

As General Motors works to conserve cash for the coronavirus pandemic, the automaker reportedly told suppliers that it is postponing development of several future vehicles. The situation may cause GM to delay the launch of the 2021 Cadillac Escalade, GMC Yukon, Chevrolet Tahoe and Chevrolet Suburban SUVs, which had been planned to roll out in April. The original launch plan for the redesigned full-size SUVs, which are some of the most profitable vehicles produced by GM, had called for production of the current models to end at its plant in Arlington, Texas, this week. After a retooling process, the redesigned SUVs were slated to begin production late in the month of April. In an email to suppliers viewed by Reuters and confirmed as authentic by GM, the automaker also said it was suspending development work on six future vehicle programs, including updates of the Chevrolet Equinox, GMC Terrain, Cadillac XT4, Bolt EV, Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM said preproduction work on those programs would be pushed back to calendar year 2021, with most of the updated vehicles scheduled to be launched as 2022 models. According to the Detroit News, work has also been paused on the Chevy Camaro and a future version of the Corvette that has yet to be unveiled and wasn't planned for production during the 2020 calendar year. Last week, the automaker told employees and suppliers it was delaying work on some future vehicles while pushing ahead with near-term models such as its redesigned full-size SUVs and the GMC Hummer EV, Cadillac Lyriq, Chevrolet Bolt EUV and Cruise Origin, as well as its new Ultium battery system. A GM spokesman who spoke with Reuters reiterated on Monday what the automaker had said last week — that the situation with its U.S. plants was "fluid" and that the automaker would "continue to evaluate" whether and when to reopen those plants on a week-by-week basis, with "employee safety" guiding that decision. GM said previously that it was closing most of its U.S. plants indefinitely. In its Monday email, GM asked suppliers to stop work on all pre-production tooling and pre-production parts manufacturing, but also not to dispose of any tooling or materials. GM told Reuters it had solicited volunteers from its workforce to finish the build-out of the current SUVs on a single shift in Arlington.

What are the odds an actual Cadillac EV looks anything like this?

Tue, Jan 15 2019

The Cadillac EV concept sure looks neat. It's all-electric, too, which is even neater. Unfortunately, it's a concept car, and when it comes to concept cars with Cadillac badges on them, it's best not to get too excited. For instance, you might recall this exquisite piece of automotive art. It was called the Elmiraj. You might recall the production version became the bold face of a new Cadillac and inspired a renaissance for the brand. Jay-Z drives one. Oh wait, no he doesn't. It was never made, nor was anything like it made. This is the Cadillac Escala. It has certainly inspired design cues on production Cadillacs, most notably the just-revealed XT6. However, besides those cues, it's a pretty anonymous large crossover. Hardly anything as stunning as the Escala. Now, perhaps the CT5 will be a dead-ringer, but we wouldn't get our hopes up. Then there's this, the Ciel. Not to be confused with an Acura CL, it was 100 feet long, a convertible and purple. This was also not made. OK, we can see why. And finally, this is the Cadillac Sixteen. As the name suggests, it had 16 cylinders. That's a lot. The most you can get in a Cadillac today is half that many. Now, to be fair, most manufacturers produce concept cars that have zero chance of production. They are meant to serve as inspiration for future designs, showcase future technologies or just draw attention to the brand. The problem with the Cadillac concepts is that they're not that fanciful. Those aren't pod-like Jetsons cars up there. They aren't this nonsense. They look like modern interpretations of the exact sort of grandiose cars Cadillac used to make. The very cars that made Cadillac the "Cadillac of the World." You know, like this. I'm not talking about literal tail fins and pink paint, but that's a CADILLAC. It's confident. It's its own thing. It doesn't need to beat BMW around the Nurburgring to prove something to someone somewhere. The Elmiraj was also a CADILLAC. The XT6 literally wears a Cadillac badge, but it could be anything. By contrast, Lincoln is doing a much better job of tapping into the spirit of its grand past with the Navigator, Aviator and suicide-doored Continental. Nowhere is that better seen than in the cabins of the XT6 and Aviator. One is swank. The other is not. But back to where we started: that EV concept. You'll note that it doesn't actually have a name.
