Up for auction is my 1968 Cadillac Sedan DeVille. This particular Sedan DeVille is not a hardtop, it is a post vehicle which means there is a post between the front and rear doors. The car has an original 84,663 miles and is in presentable, original condition. The car still retains approximately 80% of its original paint with some fading on the trunk and hood areas. I did have the vinyl top replaced in 2007 and the vinyl top is still in excellent condition. When the original vinyl top was removed there was no signs of rust and it was treated/prepped/sealed prior to the installation of the new top. There is a small door ding in the drivers door as well as a small ding between the right hand cornering light and headlight door (see pictures). There is also a dent in the rear bumper removable molding insert on the drivers side (see picture). About six months ago I noticed a few rust bubbles on the lower front fenders and I took the vehicle to a body shop to have them repaired and the paint blended into the original paint.

The interior is in excellent original condition for the age of the vehicle, but does have some flaws. The flaws include some armrest cracking on the driver and passenger side front door panels. One button on the front seat upholstery popped off and one floor mat is missing (passenger side front). The carpet, headliner, dash pad, and the rest of the interior looks good. The car is fairly well-equipped including air-conditioning (working - new compressor charged with R134a), power windows (all working), power seat, power door locks (which are lazy at times I think they are vacuum controlled), tilt-telescopic steering wheel, automatic headlight dimmers, AM/FM Stereo Radio with power antenna, cruise-control (works when it wants to from time to time), automatic trunk release with vacuum pull down trunk lock, rear window defrost, and a clock that does not work.

Mechanically the car is in excellent condition. I had the engine rebuilt which included new rings, new bearings, new cam, new lifters, new push rods, new valve seals, new timing chain set, new oil pump/screen, and new gaskets/seals. Also the car has had all of the following replaced: new carburetor, new starter, new distributor, new smog pump, new water pump, new gear box, new radiator hoses, new belts, new power steering pump, new power steering hoses, new thermostat, new fuel pump, and the radiator was cleaned and tested. All the brake components were replaced which included new brake shoes, new brake wheel cylinders, new brake hoses, new hardware kits, and new master cylinder.

The vehicle is currently being sold as-is and where-is with no warranty implied or expressed. Make sure to ask any and all questions prior to bidding on this vehicle. A deposit of $500.00 dollars will be required within 5 days from the close of auction. The buyer is responsible for shipping and transport. The high bidder can make additional arrangements with seller if both agree. Full payment is required within 10 days of auction's close. Cash or Cashiers Check/Money Order. Please note title and car will be held until method of payment clears the bank. As mentioned earlier please ask all your questions prior to bidding. Any questions will be answered honestly, because I do not want anyone to be dissatisfied. 

Lastly, this item is being re-listed due to a bidder who was not aware of how an auction site worked and placed a bid without knowing the responsibilities or consequences associated with not following through with being a high bidder.  Therefore, please bid responsibly and ask questions prior to bidding.  Make sure to read the rules and guidelines of eBay prior to making a commitment to purchase an item.  Thank you for understanding.

2015 Cadillac ATS sedan gets early reveal in making-of video

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

Cadillac is apparently preparing to roll out a minor facelift for the ATS sedan - which we know not because General Motors has already revealed it or because we're looking at it in a fresh batch of spy shots (though we've seen that too), but because a behind-the-scenes video from the filming of its commercial has leaked out online. Which may be bad news for Cadillac, and even worse news for the film production company, but good news for us, because we get to see it ahead of schedule.
The revised sports sedan seems to be sporting a new front bumper and less egg-cratey grille with Caddy's new wreath-less badge at its center, all apparently put in place to bring the sedan more in line with the new ATS coupe.
We're sure Cadillac will be revealing the updated 2015 ATS sedan shortly, but you can scope it out right now in the video below. By way of comparison, we've included an image gallery of the current ATS, released back in 2013, as well.

Cadillac sales chief Peffer resigns amidst slow sales

Fri, 20 Jun 2014

Cadillac continues to hemorrhage executives, as it's just seen its fourth high-level departure in the past year. Vice President of Global Strategic Development Don Butler (who defected to Ford) and European President and Managing Director Susan Docherty both left the company of their own volition, while Chase Hawkins, Cadillac's vice president of sales and service, was fired following a "violation of policy" in July of 2013. Strangely, it's Hawkins' replacement, Bill Peffer (shown above), who has handed in his papers this time around.
"Bill left to pursue other interests. Kurt McNeil replaces him, effective immediately," spokesman David Caldwell told Autoblog via email.
McNeil last held the VP of sales and service position back in 2012. He's currently the vice president of US sales for all of General Motors. According to The Detroit News, McNeil will take on the post in what is likely an interim capacity.

Cadillac CT6 production ceases January 2020 as part of D-Ham layoffs

Fri, Dec 6 2019

General Motors filed paperwork under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act with Michigan's Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity this week, detailing events to come at the automaker's Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Starting February 28, 814 salaried and hourly workers at D-Ham, as its called, will be laid off. The 753 workers represented by the UAW will begin receiving offers in January to relocate to facilities in Michigan and Ohio, or buyout offers. As the 4-million-square-foot plant winds down through April 3 to a skeleton crew, the Cadillac CT6 ceases production in January 2020, and the last Chevrolet Impala comes off the line on February 28. The loss of the CT6 represents the end of Cadillac's latest brief, and highly regarded, adventure into flagship sedans. It might also mean the end of the 4.2-liter Blackwing twin-turbo V8 engine, at least for the moment. Both casualties are calamities. The death of the Impala closes the door on a nameplate in production for 52 years since 1957, having started off as a top-tier trim for the 1958 Bel Air known as the Bel Air Impala, once advertised with the line, "Lets you know you're the boss." As part of the new four-year labor agreement with the UAW, GM is keeping D-Ham open to build a new line of battery-electric vehicles, ultimately investing $3 billion and tripling employment to 2,225 workers when fully operational. The agreement described the coming EV as a "van" that would commence production in late 2021, but various reports say what's actually coming is a range of premium EVs in pickup and SUV bodystyles under the program codename BT1. The easy predictions put an electric GMC Sierra and Cadillac Escalade among the EV fold, but not until 2023, according to auto industry forecaster LMC Automotive. Before that, LMC claims an electric van will debut in late 2021, along with a battery-powered rebirth of the Hummer brand in pickup and SUV forms, also in late 2021.
