1979 Cadillac Seville Gucci Edition Sedan 4-door 5.7l on 2040-cars
Sanger, Texas, United States
|
All Gucci emblems in-tact but hood ornament is missing. Original hubcaps with double G emblem included and in good condition. Carriage roof fabric is faded, but all other interior Gucci fabrics in very good condition. All 4 floor mats included, but have cracking and staining. Seat leather is dried and cracking and seams are splitting in some places, mainly driver's seat. Hood has some rust damage, but rust on the rest of the vehicle is limited and rust on undercarriage was sanded and sealed during engine and transmission refurbishing. Almost all mechanical parts have been replaced and fuel injection was replaced with Edelbrock carb and intake manifold. Extensive records of all parts replaced, with receipts, are included. Tires are new with 200-300 miles on them. For more details about what work has been done so far, please send a message. Milage assumed to be original, as when I had the car shipped from Florida it had 1982 registration sticker on windshield.
I purchased this vehicle from a seller in Florida several years ago. I began restoring it, but will not be able to complete the process. Almost everything except the rear differential has been replaced or refurbished, mechanically. Fuel tank was also cleaned and resealed, and the fuel injection system was removed and replaced with a carb setup. Custom true dual exhaust was also fitted onto the car, including headers. The vehicle sat outside for over 25 years in Florida, so it needs some TLC. Paint and body work are needed, and the rear bumper filler is missing. The leather interior and dash also need to be refurbished, but all of the special Gucci fabrics are in excellent shape. This is a unique car (one of 200) that would make a fun Sunday driver or show car with some work. Buyer will need to make shipping arrangements and no warranty is offered, other than what may be associated with parts I have records for. |

Cadillac tipped to call flagship something other than LTS
Sun, 21 Sep 2014Cadillac wouldn't be Cadillac without large sedans in its lineup, and while the XTS has had to hold down that end of the fort all on its own, it won't have to for too long. That's because the luxury brand in the General Motors portfolio is preparing to roll out its new LTS, stylistically previewed by the Elmiraj concept pictured above. Only now, the latest thinking is that the upcoming flagship model may not be called LTS at all.
As Automotive News points out, Cadillac's naming scheme is all over the place at the moment. The ATS slotting below the CTS makes sense (alphabetically), but where do the ELR, SRX and especially the Escalade fit into that naming hierarchy? And how would LTS - as the project has been known until now - sit above the XTS?
Fortunately, Cadillac may be on the case, as two of the division's most recent senior appointments seem keen to rationalize the naming scheme. One is Uwe Ellinghaus, who joined Cadillac as chief marketing officer late last year. Speaking of the brand's nomenclature last spring, Ellinghaus was quoted as saying, "We are aware that this is currently a weakness of the Cadillac brand." And his new boss is bound to agree.
Cadillac CTS-V spotted with big exhaust, new grille?
Thu, 20 Feb 2014If you thought Cadillac was content to leave its twin-turbocharged Vsport as the range-topping CTS, think again. Behold, our first good glimpse at the next-generation Cadillac CTS-V sedan, sporting more aggressive styling (somewhere under there), meaty quad-exhaust pipes, and what very well could be a new face for the V-badged Caddies.
Creating an all-new grille design seems like an awful lot of work just for a prototype, so it's very possible that the vertical-bar treatment you see here could make its way into production. Our spy photographers have pointed out that they've seen this same sort of grille treatment on prototypes for the smaller ATS-V sedan, and we've heard V-series models may soon have greater differentiation from the standard vehicles that sired them - that seems especially necessary if Cadillac insists on expanding this whole Vsport range.
Regardless of how its front end looks, the CTS-V ought to be a real monster. Industry sources say we can expect to see a supercharged version of General Motors' 6.2-liter V8 under the Caddy's hood, and considering the current car already makes 556 horsepower and 551 pound-feet of torque, we wouldn't be surprised to see a decent increase in both of those numbers. After all, one of the CTS-V's main competitors, the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG, is currently putting out 550 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque. Could this mean a 600-hp Cadillac is on the horizon?
A few signs that Cadillac's revival is taking hold
Mon, 08 Apr 2013Only a flatworm would not have predicted the Cadillac ATS would help increase sales for America's erstwhile luxury brand of record; however, even the best automotive oracles didn't realize by how much: The ATS fueled a 49-percent increase of the brand's year-on-year sales in March, the sixth straight month of growth for Cadillac. The momentum helped push General Motors to post a 6.4-increase in sales in March versus 2012, leading its domestic competitors.
Dealership salesmen are among the first to register the shift occurring at Cadillac. A Texas dealer related an incident in which he helped a mother affix a baby seat in a car for a test drive, explaining that as opposed to the older buyers that are still a Cadillac mainstay he's getting "a pretty diverse group that's coming through the door now" who are "younger and better educated." Aided by incentives on the ATS, Cadillac's sales are up 38 percent so far this year, overtaking Acura as the fourth best selling luxury brand, and GM stock is benefiting with incremental gains because of it. Based on early response, the new 2014 Cadillac CTS should keep things going in the same direction.
The trend at the Wreath and Crest is part of a larger sales trend happening among domestics - with other models like the Dodge Dart and Ford Fusion doing well - and overall US car sales. Head over to Bloomberg for the big picture and role the ATS plays in it.
