1955 CADILLAC COUPE DEVILLE PROJECT CAR
UP FOR AUCTION IS MY BELOVED 1955 CADILLAC COUPE DEVILLE PROJECT. THE MISSUS SAYS I WON'T OR CAN'T DO IT (THAT IS- PART WITH IT), BUT I GOTTA DO IT! I SIMPLY HAVE TOO MANY PROJECTS THAT DEMAND MY IMMEDIATE ATTENTION AND MY IMMEDIATE DOLLARS. I STARTED THIS RESTORATION IN EARNEST IN 1994 ACQUIRING ONE 1955 CADILLAC COUPE DEVILLE IN BARBERTON, OHIO NEAR MY HOMETOWN (THE CARS AND I ARE IN TENNESSEE NOW). I THEN SET UPON COLLECTING PARTS, ACQUIRING MORE PARTS, CARS, REBUILDING THE ENGINE, RESTORING A BODY THAT WAS TOO ROUGH FOR ANYONE BUT THE HARDIEST BODY MAN. I WILL ATTEMPT TO DESCRIBE EVERYTHING THAT I CAN THINK OF TO HELP YOU CADILLAC LOVERS MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION. THE GRAY PRIMERED, STRIPPED DOWN CAR IS THE ONE THAT HAS RECEIVED THE WELD-IN WORK AND IS THE ONE IF YOU DECIDE TO FULFILL MY HOPE AND FINISH RESTORING THE CAR TO IT'S ORIGINAL GLORY. THIS COUPE WAS LIFTED OFF BODY TO HAVE BODY GUSSETS WELDED IN, INNER AND OUTER ROCKER WELDED IN, FLOOR PAN SECTIONS WELDED IN, AND QUARTER PANEL SECTIONS WELDED IN. THE QUARTER SECTIONS THEN WERE LEADED IN AT THE SEAMS FOR A BETTER BOND OVER THE LONG HAUL. THE CAR WAS THEN PRIMERED IN EPOXY GRAY, BUT AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PICTURES IT NEEDS TO HAVE A DUST-OVER WITH A SAND BLASTER TO ELIMINATE WAS IS MERELY SURFACE RUST. HEY, DID I MENTION I PUT NEW BODY BUSHINGS AT THE FRAME MOUNTING POINTS TO RESTORE THAT SIGNATURE CADILLAC RIDE FROM THE 50'S. I DID NOT GET AROUND, WHILE THE BODY WAS LIFTED, TO DOING ANYTHING WITH THE FRAME DESIRING AS I DID TO HAVE A NICE DAILY DRIVER. OF COURSE, THIS COULD STILL BE DONE AT THIS STAGE OF RESTORATION. AS YOU CAN PROBABLY TELL FROM THIS DESCRIPTION THAT I HAVE A COUPLE HUNDRED OR MORE HOURS ALREADY TIED UP IN THIS PROJECT AND WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE CAR FINISHED AND RESTORED TO IT'S FORMER GLORY. ENOUGH ABOUT THE BODY THEN.
THE ENGINE IS THE ORIGINAL 331 CU. IN. THAT WAS CADILLAC'S SIGNATURE ENGINE IN THOSE YEARS. ( SEE PICTURES) THIS ENGINE WAS REBUILT FROM THE CRANKSHAFT UP BY A PROFESSIONAL MACHINE SHOP IN THE AKRON, OHIO AREA TO THE TUNE OF $3,500 WITH NO EXPENSE SOARED OR BOLT UN-TURNED. OF COURSE, ALL NEW GASKETS , RINGS, BEARINGS, CARBURETOR REBUILT, CRANK TURNING AND BORING OF .30 OVER WAS DONE TO RESTORE THE ENGINE TO BETTER THAN NEW CONDITION. THE ENGINE WAS THEN TEST RUN ON THE MACHINE SHOPS RUN STAND TO MY PERSONAL SATISFACTION. IT HAS BEEN GARAGE-STORED EVER SINCE AND WOULD NO DOUBT START RIGHT UP IF INSTALLED. I HAVE AT LEAST ONE OPERATIONAL TRANSMISSION THAT CAME OUT OF A FOURTH CADILLAC THAT I PERSONALLY DROVE. I HAVE NEW WEATHERSTRIPPING THAT I BOUGHT AHEAD OF THE GAME IN ANTICIPATION OF MY COMPLETION. I HAVE FIVE NEW PERIOD CORRECT WIDE WHITE WALL DUAL 90' TIRES (SEE PICTURES).
THE PARTS THAT WERE REMOVED BY ME FROM THE RESTORATION CAR ARE STORED IN BOXES IN MY GARAGE AND ARE FAIRLY WELL LABELED. I HAVE A WINDSHIELD AND BACK GLASSES. THERE IS A GOOD TRUNK LID (SEE PICTURES ) WITH THE ORIGINAL DIAGRAM FOR THE TIRE CHANGE INSTRUCTIONS STILL INTACT. I HAVE FRONT AND REAR BUMPERS AS WELL THAT DO NEED RESTORED AND RE-CHROMING.
PARTS CARS- AS YOU CAN TELL FROM THE PICTURES I HAVE 2 ADDITIONAL PARTS CARS THAT ARE PART OF THE PACKAGE THAT CAN SERVE TO SUPPLY ANY NECESSARY PARTS AND TO SERVE AS A GUIDE TO ASSEMBLY AND RESTORATION. ONE OF THE PARTS CARS IS A VERY DESIRABLE AIR-CONDITIONED CAR AS YOU MAY HAVE NOTICED AS IS THE RESTORATION CAR. THE OTHER CAR HAS THE VERY REAR AUTRONIC EYE SYSTEM. THESE CARS WERE PURCHASED FROM A GENTLEMAN IN MISSOURI AND HAULED BACK TO OHIO WHERE I WAS AT THE TIME.
AS YOU CAN SEE ON THIS PROJECT I HAVE DONE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF LEGWORK IN THIS RESTORATION THAT CAN SERVE TO MOVE THIS THING ALONG FOR WHOEVER WILL STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND SEE THE COUPE DEVILLE TO COMPLETION.
IT IS MY HOPE THAT SOME HARDY CADILLAC AFICIONADO WILL DESIRE TO FINISH THIS PROJECT AS THESE CARS HAVE GONE UP IN PRICE AND VALUE AND ARE HARDER TO FIND THAN EVER. MY LOW STARTING BID PRICE IS REFLECTIVE OF MY DESIRE TO HELP TOWARD THAT END. I WILL RELUCTANTLY CONSIDER TO BOW TO A DIFFERENT REALITY OF SELLING PARTS INDIVIDUALLY IF SOMEONE IS WILLING TO ARRANGE TO PURCHASE THE MOTOR ONLY AT $3,000.00 BUT ONLY AFTER I HAVE EXHAUSTED MY OPTIONS TO SELL THIS PROJECT AS A PACKAGE SALE. PLEASE GIVE THOROUGH CONSIDERATION BEFORE BIDDING AND CONTACT ME IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, WOULD LIKE MORE SPECIFIC PICTURES. OR WOULD LIKE TO ARRANGE FOR AN IN-PERSON INSPECTION OF THE CARS. I CAN BE CALLED AT MY PLACE OF BUSINESS HERE IN SUNNY COOKEVILLE, TENNESSEE AT 1-800-277-3575.
SHIPPING - IF YOU ARE THE SUCCESSFUL BIDDER ON THE PACKAGE DEAL I CAN OFFER SHIPPING AND TRANSPORT AS I HAVE BOTH A BOX VAN FOR THE PARTS AND A 3 CAR WEDGE TRAILER TO HAUL THE CARS TO YOUR LOCATION. THE COST FOR THIS SERVICE WOULD BE $2.00 PER TRUCK PER LOADED MILE.

Cadillac prices 410-hp XTS Vsport from $63,020*
Mon, 24 Jun 2013Cadillac has officially released pricing for the 2014 XTS Vsport. Buyers can expect to pay $63,020 for the fleet four-door, including destination and handling fees. That kind of coin will snag you a twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V6 good for 410 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque. As you likely already know, engineers have done a lot more than simply bolt a pair of turbos onto the company's tried and true naturally aspirated 3.6-liter V6. The engine uses an all-new block, strengthened connecting rods and domed aluminum pistons and is fed through a revised direct-injection fuel system. Combined, the tweaks allow the V6 to suck down 12 psi of boost.
The price tag puts the 2014 Cadillac XTS Vsport well under potential (if ambitious) competitors like the Audi S6 at $71,900, plus destination fees. A base BMW 550i will set you back $62,700, excluding destination charges, but throwing options at the German sedan will quickly see that number climb higher. You can check out the full press release below for more information.
Best luxury SUVs of 2022 and 2023
Mon, Sep 12 2022Once upon a time, the idea of a luxury SUV meant a Range Rover, and even that was pretty agricultural by modern standards. Then Jeep Grand Cherokees and Ford Explorers started offering fancy, range-topping versions followed soon by Lexus, BMW and Mercedes dipping their toes in the water. And then the floodgates opened. Today, there is a staggering number of luxury SUVs available in every shape, size and price point. There are electric luxury SUVs like the Tesla Model X and Jaguar I-Pace, as well as gas-swilling, high-performance SUVs like the BMW X5 M and Cadillac Escalade V. Sports car makers Porsche, Aston Martin and Lamborghini have even dived in. But of this great many, which are the best luxury SUVs? We sat down, scoured our reviews, took some votes, had some discussions and came up with the luxury SUVs we view as the best. They are listed alphabetically within the six segments listed below. Best Subcompact Luxury SUV  |  Best Compact Luxury SUV  |  Best Midsize Luxury SUV (Two-Row) Best Midsize Luxury SUV (Three-Row)  |  Best Flagship Luxury SUV (Two-Row)  |  Best Flagship Luxury SUV (Three-Row) Best subcompact luxury SUVs Mercedes-Benz GLB-Class Why it stands out: Outstanding space and versatility; legit luxury interior; amusing GLB 35 versionCould be better: Overwhelming and confusing tech interface Most subcompact luxury SUVs are a dubious value, with cramped interiors of marginal quality and unrefined driving dynamics. You'd be much better off paying less money for a loaded, non-luxury compact SUV. The Mercedes GLB is different, though. Its boxy design provides space few other subcompact SUV can match (luxury or otherwise), while its cabin design and feature content are in keeping with pricier Mercedes models. The quality's not exactly up to GLC standards, nor is driving refinement, but the difference is appropriate for how much you're saving and still perfectly acceptable. There's nothing dubious about buying a GLB.   Volvo XC40 Why it stands out: More features for the money; spacious and versatile interior; distinctive design; electric versionCould be better: Fuel-efficient base engine only available with FWD Most subcompact luxury models feel a bit like cheap knockoffs of their bigger, pricier brand mates. The XC40, by contrast, is a break from the Volvo norm in a good way.
