For sale here is a show quality 1976 Cadillac Fleetwood Eldorado Convertible with just over 71,000 original miles. This Eldorado was purchased new at a dealer located in North Carolina, and the owner held onto it for more than 30 years! I bought it from a Florida resident 3 years ago, and have stored it during the winter months here in Michigan. Since I've owned the car, it has only been driven in the best of weather, and has been garage kept otherwise. I've put a lot of time and effort into making this classic stand out in a crowd. I have a collection of papers and documentation including the factory window sticker, owner's manual, and receipts going all the way back to the first owner.

The car is in beautiful condition, and is ready to drive. The matching number 500cid V-8 engine purrs like a kitten through a dual exhaust system that I had installed. The carburetor has recently been rebuilt, and I've added many new mechanical items including: Front axles, ball joints, and American Classic wide white wall tires.

Overall this classic Cadillac is truly gorgeous. The car has been repainted in the factory color (Brentwood Brown Metallic), and that remains in great condition. I had a local artist add subtle pinstripes in gold to set off the body lines. Included is a new fiberglass parade boot painted to match the body color that can be seen in the photos. The hood ornament is a 1939 Cadillac piece, and the original is also included. The vinyl top and the rubber inserts on the rear bumper were replaced last year too! All the sheet metal is straight, damage, and rust free.

The interior is just as nice as the exterior. The steering wheel has been replaced, as has both of the dashboard covers. The stereo and speakers have all been upgraded, and I still have the factory deck that is included. There is a custom center console that I had made which houses some of the new speakers and adds functional cup holders.

Bid to own this stunning Cadillac as my reserve price is very fair. I've invested more time and money than I could possibly recoup from this auction. What that means for you is a great deal while this lasts...don't miss out on this opportunity!

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me @ (231)775-5734 (Ask for Ron). Thanks for looking and GOOD LUCK!

GM laying off 510 amidst slow Cadillac, small car sales

Wed, 12 Nov 2014

General Motors is laying off about 510 workers from two factories beginning in January, and it could be months before the automaker needs some of that latent capacity to come back on line. A combination of poor sales and high dealer inventories are prompting the cutbacks, according to Automotive News.
The largest changes come at GM's Lansing Grand River plant, where the Cadillac ATS and CTS are made. An entire shift of about 350 workers is being laid off, but the automaker hopes to find positions for some of them at other nearby factories. The decision leaves just a single shift building vehicles there. According to Automotive News, the move is partially spurred by Johan de Nysschen's plan to make Cadillac a more exclusive brand.
The lost shift will likely return for production of the next-generation Chevrolet Camaro at the plant, according to the report, but GM isn't saying when that will be. A previous announcement from the Canadian Auto Workers union indicated that the Oshawa, Ontario, factory would lose the coupe in late 2015 or early 2016.

New presidential limo spotted in use for the first time

Mon, Sep 24 2018

It has been a long lead-up to the new presidential limousine, but now it appears General Motors has "The Beast" in working order for President Donald Trump. The new limo was spotted in public for the first time this weekend in New York City in Trump's motorcade, reportedly on its way to Trump Tower. Said to have been in development since 2013, the $15.8 million armored Cadillac is making its debut as Trump's ride to the U.N. General Assembly this week. The grille suggests looks along the lines of a Cadillac CT6 V-Sport, but the similarities don't go much beyond that. If you look closely, Trump appears to be in the second "Beast" of the twin truck-based Cadillacs that go by in the video. The limo has a diesel engine to propel its near-20,000-pound self down the road, but we couldn't detect much of an oil-burner sound over those gigantic truck tires. This week in NYC will showcase motorcades and fancy presidential limos from around the world, all coming in for the big annual meeting at the U.N. Trump's presidential limos get shipped around the world too because they have their own plane: a C-17 Globemaster cargo carrier. There's no shortage of cool features on the new limo, and we detailed those here. While some of the awesome defense mechanisms are public knowledge, we're sure there are plenty that remain classified. New model presidential limo noticed awaiting Pres Trump at Wall Street heliport.

2013 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year finalists announced [w/poll]

Wed, 12 Dec 2012

2012 is almost in the books and automakers are spending December gearing up for the 2013 auto show season, which tips off next month at the Detroit Auto Show. Traditionally, the latter opens up with the announcement of the North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards, and this year figures to be no different.
But up until this moment, we didn't know which six vehicles would be parked ahead of the stage as finalists, with executives and engineers waiting for the winners to be disclosed. Whittled down from October's "short list" of nominees (11 cars and 10 truck/utility vehicles), the finalists are as follows:
