you are looking at my 1960 cadillac 62 series 6 window sedan. it has 29,935 original miles!!! you just read that right.....30k ORIGINAL MILES! here is what i can tell you about the history of the car. i have old oil records that state the car had about 21k miles back in 1962 at an oil change. in 1976 it only had 26k miles. between 1976 and 2011 it basically sat in the owner's garage undriven! after the owner passed away his son sold it to a cadillac dealer. i obtained it from the cadillac dealer. it is an excellent condition true survivor. never wrecked, never restored, etc. its a living time capsule! the exterior paint is in very good condition. it is by no means show quality paint. there are various dings, scratches, spider webbing, etc in the paint. it is perfect as a sunday afternoon cruiser. the interior is in fabulous condition. the seats are unbelievable. seats are in super nice shape. the seats are a very unique and rare turquoise blue. when we bought the car it was a bit musty from the old carpet. we bought some new cut pile carpet and installed it. that took the smell away immediately. the interior trim is excellent as well. the chrome on this car is fabulous. chrome is everywhere on this car too! it is in excellent condition and it is everywhere! the curved front window is cool too. everything works that i can think of. all the turn signals, radio, wipers, headlights, horn, antenna motor, power windows, power seats, interior lights, etc all work!!!! the 2 little turn signals on the front hood scoop even work as well! its hard to believe but true. the only think standing between this being a 75k car is a high quality paint job. all of the original cardboard dividers are still in the trunk!! try to find those in any 1960 currently for sale. i heard that the cardboard alone can sell upwards of $2k!!! i had carburetor work done by a master mechanic. the mechanic works on high end autos and race cars and he personally rebuilt the carburetor. it is new with some performance parts. the cadillac starts right up! i invested quite a bit in that. we also had to put a new gas tank on this car because the original one had basically rusted out from sitting so long and we didnt wanna chance contaminating the engine. the only feature not currently working is the gas tank gauge. it was working before we changed the fuel tank. when we installed the new tank we placed a detector line in the wrong place. it is an easy fix that we could do before the sale or i can discount the price to have it fixed. but rest assured its an easy fix and it will work! we sanded and undercoated the whole undercarriage of the car with satin black diamond grip paint. makes for a nice clean look and will protect it from rust for years to come. when i bought this car i wanted a cool big car to drive the kids around town in. it is all of that and more. people GO CRAZY WHEN THEY SEE THIS CAR. everyone, including cops, want to pull you over and talk about it. people try to buy it each time i take it into town. my kids love it because there are no seatbelts in it and the car was grandfathered into the new law requiring seatbelts. i have had the cops talking to me thru the front window as my 4 year old was standing next to me on the front seat!! its legal with this car. it is huge. you can seat 8 people comfortably. plenty of leg room. huge trunk. you could fit 3 people in the trunk! the bubble provides so much headroom. i am 6 ft 4 inches tall and this is the most comfortable car i have owned. huge steering wheel. it is a shade over 19 feet long. huge fins. strong engine. i dare you to find a lower mileage survivor than this. it is the 62 series 6 window sedan. some people call it a deville but i think its just called the 62 series. 1959 and 1960 were the most popular cadillac years so finding parts is not an issue at all. feel free to ask questions!! thanks for looking!!

GM moving international sales HQ to Singapore from Shanghai
Wed, 13 Nov 2013General Motors has announced that it will be moving its international headquarters from Shanghai to Singapore, a move that will see 120 employees working from the city-state by the time business opens in 2014. Meanwhile, 250 to 300 of the employees at the Shanghai office will remain in China, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal.
The shuffle is part of a bigger reorganization that will see GM isolate its operations in the People's Republic from its broader international efforts. This sort of divide-and-conquer strategy will allow GM to still react to emerging markets while, according to the WSJ, providing a dedicated management team for the Chinese market. The team in Singapore will be responsible for operations in Africa, southeast Asia, Australia, India, South Korea and the Middle East, on top of managing Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe, according to a statement from GM.
The shift to Singapore "will help us to create a renewed identity for CIO (Consolidated International Operations) and lead GM's umbrella strategy for the region," said GM Executive Vice President of CIO, Stefan Jacoby.
Cadillac CTS wins 2014 Motor Trend Car of the Year [w/video]
Thu, 07 Nov 2013For the second time, the Cadillac CTS has been named Motor Trend's Car of the Year. After winning the COTY crown for 2008, the new-for-2014 CTS outdid the other two finalists for Car of the Year honors, the Mazda3 and its corporate cousin, the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray.
What's notable about the Caddy's victory, though, is how it simply brushed off its competition. Both the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and BMW 5 Series failed to make the finalist's bracket, leaving the CTS to claim victory. "It had to beat [Mercedes and BMW] on style, on performance, on comfort, and on quality. It has," Motor Trend said in its COTY recap for the CTS.
The team at Motor Trend praised the CTS chassis, calling it "fantastic," and citing weight advantage the Caddy has over the competition. There was also praise heaped on the car's engines, with the 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder getting nods of approval from the MT team. The team also raved about the VSport model and its twin-turbocharged V6, magnetic shocks and other performance accoutrements.
Autoweek divulges details on Presidential limo
Tue, 22 Oct 2013Ever since the latest presidential limousine, also known as The Beast, debuted in 2009, we've wondered what's underneath that black Cadillac body. We already know a few details, like the fact it isn't a Cadillac at all, but a very heavy duty truck chassis from General Motors with a body that resembles a super-sized Caddy. Autoweek, however, has managed to extract new details from veteran Secret Service agents about the closely guarded presidential limo. Their methods, of course, are classified.
Designed to be a rolling office, bunker and escape pod all in one, the current presidential limo is far different from previous presidential state cars, which were heavily modified production vehicles. As we would expect, The Beast uses thick, military-grade body armor (eight inches on the doors), an armored fuel tank, special run-flat tires with Kevlar lining, an encrypted satellite phone, a fully sealed cabin with its own oxygen supply and a trunk full of weapons and medical equipment that includes a supply of the President's blood type (in case the car gets cut off from the ambulance that's always present in the President's motorcade).
The Beast also comes with a Halon fire-suppression system, night vision and is powered by a V8 engine, which we already knew runs on gas and not diesel, that returns an EPA-unfriendly estimated 3.7 miles per gallon. The Secret Service operates a fleet of 12 limos and each Beast costs $1.5 million. Lastly, AW estimates that the 18-foot-long state car weighs 15,000 pounds, and each Secret Service agent that drives the car must be specially trained to maneuver such a massive vehicle.
