1966 Cadillac DeVille

Great Driving Car

Black Interior

This is a 1966 Cadillac I bought about a year ago to go cruise around in and enjoy.  I wanted one of these cars and kept finding ones that were perfect (approx $20,000) or junk (approx $2500).  I wanted something in between that I could enjoy driving but not have to worry about breaking down constantly or being afraid to touch it because it was so nice.  I found that in this car.  

This car is a VERY nice example of a 1966 Cadillac.  It is in good shape overall with very little rust.  This car has never been restored but has been painted.  I am a very picky person and I can live with the paint.  It is about an 8/10 in my opinion.  From a couple feet away, it looks great but you can find issues in it if you look hard.  It does have some rust in the places all these cars rust.  A little behind the back window is starting to come up and there is some beginning to show at the bottom of the trunk lid.  Neither is very bad at all.  The bumpers could be re-chromed but don't look too bad the way they are now.  The interior is in very good condition also.  The headliner is perfect.  The seats and carpet are really nice.  The windows all work surprisingly fast and the AM radio even works good.  The dash pad has a crack in it and there is something missing right above the steering wheel on the dash pad. That is the worst part of the interior as you can see in the pictures.  

Mechanically the car is in great condition.  I just had the driveshaft rebuilt and it is very smooth at highway speeds.  The transmission had a small leak when I got the car.  It was a rear seal and I had it replaced.  The person that I bought it from just replaced the window rubbers, some bushings underneath the car, put 4 new tires on it, and had it aligned.  It drives great.  The car still has drum brakes on it and stops like a car with drum brakes.  Not bad, just different than a new car.  The mileage shows at 31,358.  I have had the conversation with multiple antique car people and we think this is the original mileage.  The driveline is really tight and the car is nice enough to have only 31,000 miles.  

I have enjoyed this car but I bought a couple more cars and don't have room for this inside anymore.  I don't want to store it outside and watch it ruin so I am going to let someone else enjoy it.  If I had to rate this car between Perfect (10) and Junk (1), it would be a good solid 8.  You will not find another one that is ready to enjoy that is this nice for this kind of money.  KEEP IN MIND, THIS CAR IS NOT PERFECT, IT IS A UNRESTORED, 1966 MODEL CAR.  Feel free to ask questions and I'll get them answered as soon as I can.  

I can deliver it to a shipping terminal in Birmingham, Al if necessary.

Cadillac ATS Coupe headed for Detroit reveal

Mon, 25 Nov 2013

Cadillac wouldn't be Cadillac without its two-door models. But the XLR has been discontinued for over four years now, the Elmiraj concept may never see production and the future of the CTS Coupe is still up in the air. That leaves just the ELR, which may not be conventional enough for traditional Cadillac coupe buyers. Fortunately a new coupe is coming along to fill the void.
According to Edmunds, Cadillac will reveal the new ATS coupe just a couple of months from now at the Detroit Auto Show. Expected to mechanically mirror the existing ATS sedan, the new coupe will also more conventionally resemble its four-door counterpart than the CTS, whose coupe version was distinguished by a rakishly sloping roofline.
Expect the same choice of engines to carry over, with a 2.5-liter four serving as the base engine, and both a 2.0-liter turbo four and a 3.6-liter V6 offering more power for those looking for that extra bit of oomph. Following the Detroit reveal, sources anticipate the ATS coupe to go on sale next summer.

Expensive Cadillac ELR at least comes with free Level 2 home charger

Tue, Jan 28 2014

"But wait, there's more!" Anyone who's watched late-night television is familiar with the telltale phrase of a spokesman looking to reel in a potential customer who may otherwise be disinterested in what's being advertised. Now, General Motors, faced with selling the first Cadillac extended-range plug-in vehicle to a public that may find it rather expensive, is throwing in a bonus. In this case, GM will give away a 240-volt home fast charger to "early" buyers of the Cadillac ELR, including professional installation. How early? Well, we're not finding that information in the press release below, so it may be a moving target. Earlier this month, GM said it would offer the ELR for a 39-month lease for $699 a month for qualified lessees. The deal requires $5,999 down and GM originally said it would only be good until the end of the month (though we assume that could change). It's also an "ultra-low-mileage" lease that allows for only 10,000 miles of driving each year, before per-mile surcharges of 25 cents kick in. Last fall, GM set the base price for the ELR at $75,000, before government incentives get factored in. Like its Chevy Volt sibling, the ELR can go about 340 miles using both the electricity in the battery and the gas-powered on-board generator. Check out our ELR First Drive here. Cadillac Enhances ELR Buying Experience Early adopters to receive complimentary home charger and installation DETROIT – Cadillac is offering a complimentary 240-volt home charging station and installation to early buyers of the all-new 2014 ELR electrified luxury coupe. "The ELR's blend of leading technology with provocative design and fun-to-drive performance is set to bring new buyers to Cadillac and to electrification itself," said Uwe Ellinghaus, chief marketing officer, Global Cadillac. "Professional installation of the fastest home-charging unit is a natural way to mark the introduction of ELR to the luxury market." Cadillac is offering the ELR on an ultra-low-mileage, 39-month lease for qualified lessees at $699 per month with $5,999 due at signing after all offers. The Cadillac ELR offers a convergence of luxury, electrification and sporty driving in a premium coupe with dynamic design and an award-winning range-extended electric powertrain capable of 340 miles of total range.

Cadillac may not build Elmiraj coupe

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

Despite the fact that most everyone who has laid eyes on the Cadillac Elmiraj concept coupe loves it, General Motors insiders are still trying to prove the business case to build the car. And it's certainly not a guarantee.
"I want to see this car go into production badly. Very badly," Ed Welburn, GM's Global Head of Design, told Autoblog. But the Cadillac design studio is busier than it's ever been before, and the company is working on prioritizing which cars deserve to get the billion-dollar price tag needed to research and develop a new model.
No matter what happens, Welburn says the car has made its mark on Cadillac
