I am selling my 1962 Cadillac Coupe DeVille convertible. This is a beautifully restored classic. It has a brand new Starfire White Pearl paint job with all rechromed parts, including the bumpers and all grille pieces. The dash was and bumpers were completely taken apart and rechromed as well. The grille pieces were all sand blasted and powdercoated for protection and a very clean look. It still has all of the original pieces and emblems that were also rechromed. The convertible top is brand new with all new cylinders, switch, pump and hoses. It has a brand new windshield and all the other glass is there with no cracks. The interior is two tone white and black with new carpet kit throughout, new cushions, and door panels. There are brand new 20 inch rims with new 245-45-20 tires. Brakes are 100% redone including all 4 wheel cylinders, 4 hoses, master cylinder, bearing, shoes and resurfaced drums. Also has 4 new shocks and this classic just got an alignment. I also put in new U-joints which is a three piece. The engine was completely gone through and repaired- New fuel pump, fuel filter, spark plugs, wires, distributor cap and rotor, rear main seal, valve cover gaskets including powder coated black valae cover and air filter housing. All new belts, power steering hose, rebuilt carburetor, rebuilt water pump, all new fluids and new battery. The transmission was 100% rebuilt ORIGINAL! Also has new wiring harness.

Only TOP OF THE LINE work done on this classic!

This car runs and drives great! It needs a couple little things to be 100% finished but nothing major. The wiring harness needs to be ran to the brake lights and headlights. Also the back window switched are new and work great but the chrome on the glass frames in the rear weren't rechromed. The driver side multi switch dosent work but you can still get the windows up an down because they still have power going to them. The pigtail is wired and ready to just plug in the switch for that issue! the other moldings and pieces left to finish the look of the exterior, and the rechromed parts for the steering wheel. You can tell in the pictures the minor things that need to be finished. I have over 40k into this car and hate to sell it but I have no choice.

I have had many classic cars and this is one of my favorites. I am not selling this classic because of any problems with the car, I just don't have the space for it anymore.

HAPPY BIDDING AND GOOD LUCK!!

New V6 engines are only the start at Cadillac

Fri, Mar 20 2015

Cadillac debuted its new family of V6 engines Friday, but that's not all General Motors' luxury brand has in store for the coming years. The six-cylinder powerplants will certainly help Cadillac in the near term, but they're just two of the many parts of the company's future strategy. GM has invested $12 billion in Cadillac to help the brand grow over the next five years, and the company will launch eight new products between now and 2020. That all starts with the launch of the CT6 flagship later this year – a fullsize luxury sedan we'll see for the first time in New York on March 31. The CT6 will introduce several new features and technologies to the Cadillac range, and with its launch also begins the slow restructuring of Cadillac's model-naming system. The new nomenclature means CT and XT badges for cars and utilities, respectively. Cadillac says that of the eight new vehicles it plans to launch by 2020, five of them will be first-time offerings in market segments where the brand currently does not play. But it's not just about new products – new powertrains are an important part of the Cadillac story, too. After the new V6 engines – a naturally aspirated 3.6-liter and a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter engine – launch later this year in the 2016 ATS, CTS and CT6, the company says it has a strategy for V8 power – possibly a twin-turbo application – as well as future electrification. Cadillac also says it's working on adding four- and six-cylinder diesel powertrains, though it's unclear which vehicles will make use of those engines. This new six-cylinder engine family is indeed important, with Cadillac's chief engineer, David Leone, calling it the "most advanced V6 in the industry." With 335 horsepower, the 3.6-liter engine is the highest output, naturally aspirated V6 powerplant Cadillac has done – and that's SAE-certified, and on regular fuel. Beyond that, the 3.0-liter mill (pictured at right) marks the first application of GM's active fuel management system on a twin-turbocharged engine. This means that when full power isn't necessary, the TTV6 can run as a 2.0-liter V4 in order to save fuel. New transmissions are also part of the V6 engine story. GM's all-new eight-speed Hydra-Matic 8L45 gearbox will be paired to the 3.6-liter V6, and the 3.0-liter TTV6 will use the company's existing 8L90 transmission that is already found in the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups (with the 6.2-liter engine).

Cadillac clears camo off the XT3 revealing grille, lighting details

Wed, Dec 6 2017

Up until now, every Cadillac XT3 we've seen has been buried under covers and vinyl wraps, but one of our spy photographers recently captured a group of them with significantly less camouflage. As a result, we finally get a relatively clear picture of what the car will look like. The nose blends the look of current Cadillacs with cues from last year's Escala concept. The headlights still appear to stretch up into the top of the fenders like its production brethren, but they don't descend as far down the front fascia, a hint of Escala influence. The grille also features more of egg-crate mesh like that Cadillac concept. In profile, we can see evidence of the XT3's smaller size compared with the XT5, mainly in the lack of any glass area behind the rear door. Other evidence of the smaller size is that our spy photographer reports the cars were being tested alongside the BMW X3 and Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class. The profile also shows that the XT3 will have a hard-edged rear end with a rakish hatch. At the back, there isn't a whole lot to report, but the taillights look like they'll be interesting. There appears to be a horizontal element in the middle of the hatch similar to what we've seen on the Escala and the refreshed XTS. We can also see some lights up on the C-pillar, which indicates that the XT3 will also have tall vertical elements up those pillars like on the Escalade. We expect the XT3 to show up late in 2018. It will likely be powered by a turbocharged four-cylinder of some sort, and because it will probably be based on an existing GM crossover or sedan platform, it will probably have front-wheel drive and/or a front-drive based all-wheel-drive system.

GM recalling 2013 Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac SRX over transmission software

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued recalls for the 2013 Buick LaCrosse and 2013 Cadillac SRX due to a problem with the software for the transmission controller. On about 27,000 SRX and LaCrosse models, the transmission could accidentally be shifted to Sport mode, which would reduce the amount of engine braking drivers experience.
NHTSA says this could increase the risk of a crash, but, fortunately, the required fix is simply an update to the software.
While we're on the subject of General Motors vehicle recalls, a small number (48) of compressed natural gas versions of the 2011 Chevrolet Express are also being recalled for a potential risk of fire or explosion. Yikes. Both official recall notices are posted below.
