1974 Cadillac Sovereign Combination Hearse Ambulance by Superior Coach
Car has a 472 with 28,860 actual miles. New belts, Alternator, and Battery. The only mechanical issues are a small oil leak and a crack in the smog control pump bracket (see pictures) Some paperwork in the dash from the original owner including yearly inspections noting mileage through 1987. It was purchased in 1974 by a funeral home in King, NC and they used it until 1987 and sold it to a small firm in West Virginia, they traded it in on a newer one in 2004 and it came into the possession of an individual in the Chattanooga area. It has been out of Service since 2004. The individual and the dealer he bought from say that these are the actual miles. It drives strait and true just as a Cadillac should, although it might benefit from a good tune-up as it idles a little rough at time but has plenty of power. The brakes work well and the transmission shifts fine. The man I got the car from said that on the way back from the dealer in Virginia the transmission began leaking and he in turn had it rebuilt when he got it home (2004). It also has an external transmission cooler now.
Runs and Drives Good. Looks pretty good for a 40 year old car, it is not perfect. Has been repainted a few times and could stand to be painted again to make it really nice. It has a few chips and blemishes in the paint and a few little areas of surface rust and some bubbles in the lower front fenders that will need some attention,(please see pictures). The frame and floorboards are solid. I tried to get pictures of the under side, they are not real good but maybe you can get an idea.
New tires receipt is in the dash.
All functional parts still in back. Jump seats and belts are there. Comes with Landau Panels, Ambulance Plates for rear windows, cot (old Washington two man), and fire extinguisher. It has a small modern siren on it and still has all the controls for the lights, rear air/heat, rear dome lights, etc.. The Radio works but the antenna has quit in the down position and the air conditioner compressor has been wired to a toggle switch mounted under the dash and does blow cool air but will also need some TLC. All the Glass is good.
Asking $5495.00 O.B.O.
Call or text 423- 599-0328 with any questions. If you call and get no answer leave a message and I will call you back.

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015
Mon, 25 Feb 2013General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.
Cadillac HQ has a New York address
Sun, 16 Nov 2014The new home of Cadillac will be in the 330 Hudson building in New York City's Hudson Square, putting the luxury marque smack dab in the middle of three of the city's hippest areas, SoHo, Greenwich Village and Tribeca.
The announcement is yet another milestone in the company's controversial decision to relocate administrative and marketing operations away from Detroit and into the Big Apple.
"The addition of a headquarters office in New York is a key step in Cadillac's ongoing global expansion," Cadillac boss Johan de Nysschen said, according to The Detroit Free Press. "There is no better atmosphere in which to better immerse ourselves into luxury consumer and brand expertise."
