Up for sale is my beautiful 1961 Cadillac sedan DeVille. I hate to get rid of it but unfortunately I have other obligations and my loss is your gain. To start, this is an all original 1961 Deville with just over 56,000 original miles on it. Comes standard with the 390cid V8 package that includes A/C, AM radio, leather/cloth interior matching the body paint (gold/white), wide white wall tires, and power windows. The vehicle is equipped with A/C, however at the time of this listing, it is inoperative. Everything is there, but I just not have had a chance to try and charge it. The interior is beautiful as the seats were all redone in original fashion at the end of last summer and look like brand new. All the interior chrome is polished and shiny and the original door cards, headliner, and other interior pieces are in great condition. It also has like new 4-ply wide white wall tires, a brand new battery, fully rebuilt water pump, new air filter, and all the fluids were flushed just about a week or so ago (oil change, coolant flush, transmission flush). I also just recently had the transmission gone through and adjusted as well as the carburetor cleaned and throttle return spring replaced. All the chrome is in great shape with no pitting or blemishes. The grill, like all other Cadillac's of this age, does have slight oxidation in areas, but nothing that stands out. The paint is in great condition except for a few small imperfections here and there (left front fender-shown in pictures). No rust! This car has only had two owners before me dating all the way back to 1961 and was always garage kept and winterized every year! I also had a whole new stainless steel exhaust system put on it end of last year as well (sounds great!). It runs and drives beautifully with no issues and is a great cruiser with plenty of power. The only other thing it will need is to have the seat belts installed. Last summer I had the old ones taken out and new ones bought (included with the car) and just realized they were not installed yet. I also have a folder of paperwork including maintenance records, receipts, old blue prints, etc. as well as extra parts such as air filters, bulbs, seat belts, color-matching paint, and a water-proof car cover that will all be included with the car. All in all this car is ready to be driven daily with no issues and would be a great addition to anyone's collection. I just took her out the other day for a cruise with no issues whatsoever and if anyone is local and wants to come take a look or test drive it, feel free to give me a call or email. Also feel free to contact me if you have any questions whatsoever or if there's something I missed in the pictures that you would like to see. Happy bidding!

2019 Cadillac XT5 Sport package isn't really that sporty

Thu, Feb 7 2019

Between the just revealed XT6 three-row crossover and last year's XT4 compact, the stalwart midsize XT5 has been a bit neglected. But Cadillac is giving it a little love at the Chicago show with the introduction of the Sport package. Don't get too excited, though, because this package is just a trim group. Outside, the XT5 with the Sport package gets a black grille, LED lights all around, and the rear lights have clear lenses. These design cues line up with the existing Sport trims on the XT4 and XT6. The new lighting and trim are complemented by 20-inch dark gray wheels and side steps. Inside, buyers get a choice between an all-black or black and gray upholstered interior with diamond-cut aluminum trim and aluminum pedals. And that's all the package adds. The suspension isn't retuned. The 3.6-liter V6 still makes 310 horsepower and 271 pound-feet of torque. But if the looks are enough for you, you'll be able to add the package to either the Luxury or Premium Luxury trim levels, which sit between the base XT5 and top-level Platinum. Related Video:

This 1969 Ford F-100 has a Cadillac CTS-V engine lurking underhood

Fri, Jan 30 2015

Something always feels just a little taboo when someone builds a custom and then slots in a powertrain from a rival automaker. That's exactly the case with this modded 1969 Ford F-100 boasting a highly tuned LSA supercharged V8 like from the second-gen Cadillac CTS-V. However, with a claimed 800 horsepower on tap thanks in part to running an estimated 20 pounds of boost, it's easy to get over any bad feelings. Built by Tommy Pike Customs in South Carolina, the truck tries to keep the exterior looking somewhat stock. Although, the jade green and satin gold paint, Quaker State logo, lowered suspension and black wheels immediately suggest something is up. Once the F-100 starts up with its menacing growl, absolutely any doubts of this beast being unaltered are immediately gone. Not so obvious are some tweaks to actually help put all that power down, including disc brakes and independent suspension setups at the front and rear. The video gives some glimpses at a few of Pike's other creations, but the real star here is definitely his mean, green Ford.

Cadillac reveals futuristic EV crossover in Detroit

Mon, Jan 14 2019

Cadillac just revealed a futuristic EV crossover model at an off-site event before the Detroit Auto Show. The vehicle doesn't have a name now, but Cadillac says that and additional information will be revealed closer to the car's launch. Any sort of specifications, range and things of that matter are not available right now. Although, Cadillac mentions we can expect both two- and all-wheel drive and for it to be sold globally. What we know for sure is that this vehicle is meant to preview an actual production model at least somewhat resembling this one. As we look at the two photos, this vehicle looks a bit concept-like but probably won't need a whole lot of change to make it production-ready. When that production will start, Cadillac doesn't make any mention of either. GM said on Friday that Cadillac "will be at the vanguard of the company's move toward an all-electric future." This reveal is the first vehicle related to that goal since the statement only a couple of days prior. We contacted Cadillac in an attempt to understand a bit more about where this car stands in the concept versus production car realm, and will update when we learn more. For now, take a gander at what Cadillac says represents the future of its brand. Related video:
