1978 DeVille. 4 door. Bought in Victoria B.C. in 2004. Has been in my garage year round. Although during the summer months i take it out and use it a bit as a second car. New windshield in 2008. Air conditioning was converted to modern type freon in 2003 or so. ( $700.00 upgrade) Tires are Micheline X with 85% wear left. I had the ball joints and tie rod ends swapped out with qaulity MOOG parts in 2008 or so. And a wheel alignment. So she steers like a dream. The alternator was changed in 2010. The brakes were done in about 2008. And i have only driven it 2000 to 3000 KM per year since then. In 2011 the car never moved.
I had the car professionally painted the stock color in 2007. There was no body work to be done at that time. And certainly none needed now. The car fits the antique category. Plates run about $120.00 per year. The engine is the 7.0 L 425 ci big block Caddy engine. The tranny is a turbo 400 BOP bolt pattern.

I would consider any type of expensive jewelery on trade. Cheers

GM CEO Akerson calls out Tesla, says Cadillac will compete on EVs

Tue, 24 Sep 2013

Cadillac will be taking on Tesla Motors, the underdog EV manufacturer that's seen heaps of critical acclaim and stock market buzz with its most recent sedan, the Model S. "If you want to compete head-to-head with Tesla, and we ultimately will, you want to do it with a Cadillac," Dan Akerson, the chairman and CEO of General Motors, told media in Washington, according to The Detroit News.
Akerson continued, telling The News, "We'll sell more Volts and lose less money on the Volts than they'll lose on the Model S." He also took time to point out that Tesla getting vehicles out to customers isn't a guarantee of success or permanence, using Fisker as an example, saying "Does anybody even remember Fisker? I mean, there were a number of them; they are all gone."
This strong talk from Akerson comes after Doug Parks, another GM exec, let slip that the Detroit-based manufacturer has an EV in the works that will cover 200 miles per charge and only cost about $30,000, a massive upgrade over similarly priced EVs that struggle to top 100 miles per charge. Until that vehicle arrives, though, GM is preparing the Cadillac ELR, a small coupe that, like the Volt with which it shares technology, uses a gas engine as a mobile generator to recharge the batteries. Akerson took aim at Tesla again, saying, "But I do think when the ELR comes out late this year, early next - it's certainly the same postal code as Tesla, but now we're going to move up. It's not going to be a mass-produced car."

Cadillac issues stop-sale on recalled CTS, SRX

Mon, 21 Jul 2014

General Motors has issued a stop-sale order on the Cadillac CTS and SRX, both of which were recalled late last month. Why the stop-sale after all this time? Well, um, GM apparently doesn't know how to fix them.
The stop-sale covers all used Cadillac CTS sedans, coupes and wagons from model years 2003 to 2013, as well as new 2014 coupes and wagons. The SRX crossover stop-sale, meanwhile, only covers used vehicles from model years 2004 to 2006.
Automotive News reached out to GM spokesperson Alan Adler, who told the news pub that the company's engineers were "looking at one common solution" for the affected vehicles, although "they don't have it yet."
