1967 Cadillac Deville Convertible Runs Goodfellas Blue Loaded Ac Solid Az Car on 2040-cars

1967 Cadillac Deville convertible

Up for Auction: SUPER LOW FAIR RESERVE !!!

This 67 Caddy convertible has had the same owner since 
1967 when he bought it with 4000 miles on it. It was originally
sold new in Flint Michigan where from the factory it was
undercoated and only went thru 2 Michigan winters, but even
then it wasnt driven in the winter snow.  In 1969 the owner
moved to Tucson and the car has been here ever since.
Its been parked in a carport for about the last 15 yrs rarely
driven due to owners age etc. His wife drove it most of the
time when it was driven anyways.

Next time you watch  the movie Goodfellas or Casino
watch how many of these cars are driven by gentlemen
who knew cars knew what to drive. Another good movie
to see these cars in for the period is A Bronx Tail.

Car starts and runs, but it does idle rough. We rebuilt the
carb and after removing any old gas in the tank and lines
but not sure exactly why it runs like it does. I can start
it and drive it around the parking lot and it would drive
possibly drive onto a car hauler. problem.
I may do a mild tune up on
it this week to see if we can get it to run better.
If its not carb or std tune up stuff, I guess its possible it jumped
timing a tooth causing the issue. Its possible, the original owner
couldnt recall if he had ever done the timing chain.
Check back later in the week we will add to the cars description
on if we got it running better. 
No smoke from the exhaust at least and no major leaks under
the car.

The fuel tank may need to be dropped and flushed out one
good time too.
But seeing as the car runs and moves on its own, this makes
shipping much easier and less costly.
At the moment we have it running off a small container of
gas under the hood.  If I have time Ill try to empty the tank
and try to get it running off the rear tank.

RESTORE it back to stock or do something along the restomod
way, or rat rod and have an awesome 1 of a kind car
your friends only wished they had for such a low investment.

This car is much more solid then the last 67 we sold. The only
spots we can find real rust is both lower front fenders, which
is a pretty common spot even on AZ cars. But check out all the
pics, the trunk floors etc are very solid and clean other then
a little surface rust.
Check out the pics.
These cars are getting harder to find esp in this shape
which is still affordable for the builder.

DRIVETRAIN:  the original motor runs and sounds good.
Last yr for the 429 V8 4v matted to the 3 spd auto.
Motor does have all the AC stuff including PS, PB and
more. Its a very nice area that would restore with a
little work. Maybe just finish the tune up stuff after 
that and should be able to drive it. Well check all the
brakes too. But it stops right now, pedal feels good but
the booster may be going bad.

INTERIOR: All original blue interior shows some wear
and tear for a car with 96k on it, but even for AZ its
nicer then most out there. Obviously its not restored
and as is the interior is fine for a daily driver. Take it
to the next level with a new top, carpet and redo the
front seats for a really clean cruiser.
The chrome inside here too is in amazing shape for its
age. No pitting I could see because of the Az climate.
All the PW currently work and go up and down, they are
slow so may need some lubrication on the regulators
and tracks. PS works well too. The dash is very clean and
represents well for a weekend cruiser or driver.
Radio should work, but think the speaker is shot.
Again, all 4 PW go up and down, but they probably could
use some grease on the tracks etc.
POWER TOP has worked fine every time Ive put it up and
down so nothing bad to report there.

EXTERIOR: Original color is the Blue you see in the pics.
The car has alot of patina and showing its age in areas and
is even down to the original primer and metal in a few spots.
I dont see any signs of bondo anywhere on the car.
Front windshield has a crack in it from age and the
dr side side view mirror is cracked too.
The "missing" front lower bumper grill comes with the car
its loose in the trunk.
Hood hinges are bent, someone tried to close the hood
after some blocks of wood holding on a car cover slid down
the windshield and they didnt notice. Hence the reason
they bent the hinges. They are available used all over the bay.

SUSPENSION: all factory the best I can tell and Im sure some bushings
are old and shocks, but again this stuff is easy to fix these days
then rusted out bodies.
Leave it stock or put some 22" wheels on it.

Check out ALL the pics below ----->

it may take a full minute for them all to load if you have a
slow connection, so be patient AND looks for the extra schroll
bar on the right side.
Az gets maybe 12" a yr of rain and Az very dry climate.
