 Calls only! Text will not be returned! This no reserve action is for a 1979 Cadillac Seville that i have owned since 1985.It is fashioned after the micfearson Chevrolet one built in the early 1980s. It was a deciel car when i bought it from the original owner who sold real estate and hardly any one had sat in the back seat. Always garaged by him.                                                                                 The engine quit at 137000.00 so i put a 1973 454 and turbo 400 out of a station wagon. I dove it for years as my real estate car. Then i pulled the engine last year to do it up. Bored .030 over new forged pop up pistons,ported and polished heads 049 119 cc chamber for a today's gas friendly 9.25 to 1.Polished rods,balanced, clay smith 280/560 hyd cam, high volume oil pump, Cleavland 77 bearings,roller rockers shorty headers for nova,2/12 inch exhaust out the back with cross over pipe.                                                                                                                                                   Has 400 turbo trans that was also rebuilt at the time. It has near new disk brakes on all 4 corners. The front end has also been rebuilt a few years ago. It rumps nicely and you can tell it has a stall 2300-2600 in the turbo 400. The bad! It needs some paint work because of bubles by the vinal top edge,front fender, hood etc. When we painted it it got striped of all door gaurd edging and emblems before we base coat clear coated and cut and buffed it. It is real strait.                                                                                                                                                                                 The moon roof needs a new switch and doesn't move properly and may just need lube or taken apart and the tracks cleaned. The air conditioning doesn't work and is missing some parts. The cruse also doesn't work but is there. The rear bumper rubbers need replaced. They make new ones for about $200.00. The trunk lock  works some times and some times not. I have closed in the key hole but it can be access and manually over ridden.  The heater control box needs some adjustment. It runs and drives very nice with lots of horse power about 425 in my estimate. It rides on B F Goodrich TA tires and Chevrolet truck 7x15 and 8x15 rally wheels with 5 on 5 bolt pattern. It runs on pump fuel and if you took off the afb and ran a Holley i am sure it would like it. I left the card that is on it for gas mileage. DARE TO BE DIFFERENT! This is a pick up only item and as i said runs and drives nice to have your shipper load. For you who text. My final price could be the opening price maybe more. But you have to bid to buy it that is why they call this a action. Your text will not be returned!  As i said CALLS ONLY!  Garry 360-921-0446

Weekly Recap: Auto execs face life in prison for recall delays under proposed legislation

Sat, 09 Aug 2014



The stiff punishments are part of broader transportation legislation, but clearly McCaskill has automakers in her sights.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill threw down the gauntlet this week, proposing a bill that could send auto executives to prison for life if they were found to have delayed a recall. She also wants to eliminate the limit for fines for auto safety violations, which are currently capped at $35 million.

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.

Cadillac considering more engines, Vsport model for Escalade

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

Want to roll in the latest Cadillac Escalade? You can get it with a 6.2-liter V8... or a 6.2-liter V8. Cadillac only offers the one engine option. But that may soon change.
According to the latest from Automotive News, Cadillac is contemplating a couple of new powertrain options for its blingin' big ute. The report suggests a twin-turbo V6 and a V6 turbodiesel could be offered, and that Cadillac could create a Vsport version of the Escalade like it offers on the new CTS sedan.
The more diverse engine offerings would help attract buyers from the new Lincoln Navigator, its prime competitor, which switched from a 5.4-liter V8 this year to a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6. The turbo V6 engines (both gasoline and diesel) would also help Cadillac market the Escalade overseas - particularly in Europe, where higher fuel prices preclude the prospect of driving a big V8 SUV for many buyers. Escalade sales have dropped from 35-40k units in the mid-2000s to around 12,000 the past couple of years.
