THIS IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION!
I purchased this car from a seller here on eBay in September 2013, just a few short months ago. We had just returned from the Woodward Dream Cruise in Detroit, MI and I decided that it was time for a new weekend cruiser/ hobby car and I've always loved the body lines of the 1967 Cadillac Eldorado so I got this one. When I received the car it needed quite a few small repairs to get it on the road - new brake switch, fuse box work, turn signals, new bulbs, Unfortunately, my time is more limited that I thought it would be and I don't even get to take her out of the garage much, so I've decided to let her go. All in all, this is a very nice car! She is an head-turner every where we go and she is always ready for a nice easy cruise. The car runs and drives, handles pretty well, but as it is a 47 year old car, I'm sure that a lot can be improved on with a little time and effort - things like the drum brakes, suspension, etc. Before I get into the list of what's wrong, note that I've only owned her for less than 5 months (most of which were winter) and I've actually only driven her a handful of times for a grand total of less that 40 miles. Most of our trips have been up and down the street, cruising the neighborhood with the kids, or driving to a gathering of classic cars. Accessories and Options: Cruise Control (untested), remote drivers mirror (has crack), Power locks (work), power windows (work), Tilt steering wheel, map light on dash (works), 5 person lap seatbelts (all work). Engine: Runs fine. Starts up every time and runs strong. I do occasionally find an oil spot on the ground, but I think that's just surface grime dripping off of the hot engine. Transmission: Strong, easy shifts, great. Body: Very straight. I believe she was repainted at some point the original color - Baroque Gold. I believe the top is relatively new as well. Mouldings: All of the original mouldings and trim pieces are there. Again, I was told by the previous owner that they are all original. Wheels and Tires: original hubcaps and tires are in good condition with plenty of tread. Interior: The interior looks all original and is very good for 47 years old. The seats are tear free and the carpet, while stained a little, only has one tear near the drivers pedals. The dash is cracked (as seen in the pictures). Some surface rust on some of the metal parts. The dash could use some work - noted in electrical. Electrical: Headlights, taillights, brake lights, corner markers, interior map light and courtesy lights on lower dash all work perfectly. Turn signals work but the lever doesn't "click", so you have to hold it in the direction that you are turning to get it to flash (I purchased the kit to fix this, but just can't find the time - it will be included). A few interior lights don't work - not sure if it is switches or bulbs. Dash doesn't light. Speedometer cable clicks - needs to be replaced. I have a replacement Speedometer face/Odometer cluster that I purchased to replace the original with, but just haven't had the time - it will be included in the sale. Steering wheel and horn work, one pad screw is broken. Vacuum: The headlight doors open when you turn on the lights, but when you turn them off, they don't close automatically. I believe this is a vacuum leak, not sure. Documentation: Car still has the California title from previous owner. Not yet registered in Texas. The car comes with the original manuals and case in the glove compartment. Air Conditioning: Factory air is present and works, but doesn't blow cold. Beyond that, please look at the pictures. This car is a beauty and I only wish I had the ability to keep her and fix the little things needed to make her perfect. If you have any other specific questions, please contact me and I will answer them, provide more pics, whatever you require. Shipping is by the buyer. The down payment is due within 24 hours of auction end. If you can't buy the car, PLEASE don't bid on her! THIS USED CAR CARRIES NO WARRANTY and is sold AS IS WHERE IS! Thanks for looking and good luck! ************* LISTING REVISIONS AND ADDITIONS ********************** - Added the Body Plate photo per request - Added the car color name - "Baroque Gold" - Added the VIN number to the listing - Answered 3 questions from watchers - Added Air Conditioning info to listing |

2015 Cadillac ATS, CTS recalled over brake issue
Tue, Jun 23 2015A problem with the brakes on the 2015 ATS and CTS has prompted Cadillac to issue a recall. According to the notice below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the issue revolves around the bracket that connects the brake pedal assembly and the rod that actuates the brakes. Even under normal operation, that bracket could fracture, impeding the ability to slow or stop the vehicle. That, as you're surely aware, could increase the risk of a crash. The issue affects a reported 2,163 vehicles in the United States. Owners will need to be bring their vehicles in to their local dealership to have those brackets replaced starting on August 1. See the complete recall notice below. RECALL Subject : Brake Pedal Bracket may Fracture Report Receipt Date: JUN 09, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V358000 Component(s): SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC Potential Number of Units Affected: 2,163 Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2015 Cadillac ATS and CTS vehicles. The affected vehicles have a bracket between the brake pedal assembly and the rod that actuates the brakes that may fracture during normal brake pedal operation. CONSEQUENCE: If the bracket fractures, the driver would not be able to apply the brakes, increasing the risk of a crash. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicle and replace any affected bracket, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin August 1, 2015. Owners may contact Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006. GM's number for this recall is 15352. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
Brock Lesnar does M. Bison impression on Cadillac CTS
Fri, Jul 10 2015There's no doubt that a huge amount of physicality is required to survive night after night in the ring as a professional wrestler. Conversely, the storylines that tie all the action together are as staged as any soap opera. However, there's nothing fake about watching two axes being embedded in a Cadillac CTS by WWE wrestler Brock Lesnar. Lesnar's prodigious brawn was really putting this luxury sedan out of its misery, though. With matte black stripes on the hood, fake fender vents, camouflage along the side, and a decal proclaiming "Redneck" on the windshield, this particular Cadillac was far from the standard of the world. In favor of the CTS' build quality, Lesnar's hatchets didn't immediately do quite as much damage as you might expect, and he had to take several swings to achieve the destruction here. If you think that destroying a sedan one piece at a time sounds like something from a video game, you aren't alone. Someone else noticed a definite similarity to the bonus round from Street Fighter 2 where you get points for beating up a car at the dockside until it falls apart. Appropriate sound effects were even added, but having Lesnar throw a few pixelated fireballs would have been a nice inclusion, too. For the significantly longer, original version, check out the one embedded below. After Lesnar crushes the CTS, the actual wrestling does eventually ensue. The Caddy even briefly acts as a prop for some of the action.
