Hello and Thank You for viewing my auction. Up for bids is a 1969 Convertible Cadillac. I purchased this vehicle to restore and when it arrived it was completely misrepresented and I am listing it here as a parts car. I do however have a title(1 owner). He filled in my information under the buyer section so if anyone is planning on fixing this car and would like a title there will be a $100.00 additional fee added to tthe highest bid so I can go and pay the taxes and get a title in my name that I could then transfer to you. Here is some interesting history on the vehicle. It was purchased new in Michigan and kept in the same family it's entire life. I have the original "cancelled" title for this vehicle and the current "2007" title for this vehicle. In 2007 the parents sold the vehicle to their son. This was a beautiful vehicle...a long time ago! A rare yellow with white top and white interior and a fully loaded car. I have the original bill of sale and a bunch of other paperwork for the vehicle that is yours if you want it as well. Now lets get to the vehicle... The interior is completely stripped other than a few wire harnesses and the steering column and some other behind the dash components. The floor pan was actually in decent condition with exception of underneath the rear seat where the water would puddle from the convertible top leaks. The front windshield still looks good. The convertible top frame was working perfectly until this morning when someone came over and purchased the convertible top pump. The header panel of the frame has some rust. These frames are worth a fortune especially a complete one like this(only missing the pump). People shorten,lengthen,widen and customize the frames to use on their custom chop top cars. Other than the hood and the trunk which are decent...the rest of the body is bad. Doors and rocker panels and lower front fenders(near doors) are actually not too bad. The rear quarters are bad. The frame is junk...has some spots rotting out. The car still starts and moves and stops and steers(complimentary pair of vice grips for a steering wheel). I did not want to sell off any of the drivetrain parts because I wanted to keep it running because this is the real value in this vehicle for someone looking for a hotrod,ratrod or custom drivetrain with power! Under the hood the items that are missing are the wiper motor assembly the horns,cruise control,air cleaner assembly,valve cover breather,coolant overflow bottle. Underneath the car the only thing gone is the fuel tank. There are no keys and I have it starting on the steering column or with 2 wires from starter. There is a small gas can to get it running to get it on a truck or trailer. The front seat is the spare tire and another tire for the backrest. The car only had 97,000 original miles and the engine sounds very healthy and was really taken care of. This pretty much sums it all up. You get a complete running 472 motor with transmission and rear end and all the brakes and hardware and all the suspension and so forth. You get a convertible top frame you can sell. A windshield you can sell. You get a few other parts you can take off to sell and when your done you can scrap the big heavy beast for a bunch of money! If you are planning on restoring it...hopefully you have a complete 69 or 70 2 door hard top sitting around that you could build a convertible out of...and you will also need a lot of money and a lot of patience! If you are looking to have an excuse to get out of the house to get away from your wife....this is the project for you. If you are looking to get divorced....this project may do this as well:) If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to ask. One question I get all the time is "will this car make it to my house in wherever?"...well we know the answer to that one with this car..... :) I guess it could be possible and you would probably become famous or in jail for a long time.... It would be all daylight driving...an umbrella...many gas cans...a lot of bungee cords and duct tape and ??? I will consider BUY IT NOW prices too. Happy Bidding!!

GM delivers best Q3 sales since 1980, 2.4M vehicles sold
Wed, 15 Oct 2014People are a weird sort. Even after registering over 70 recalls through the first three-quarters of 2014, General Motors saw its best Q3 results since Jimmy Carter was in the White House, registering over 2.4 million global sales between June and September on the back of strong results in the US and China.
US sales were marshaled by good results for GM's pickups, the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, which bumped the manufacturer's truck market share to 35.6 percent, up nearly three points from Q1 2014. Buick has seen healthy growth as well, with the Encore dominating its segment for the sixth month running.
It was China, though, that really bolstered GM's sales, as the company's efforts to top last year's record-setting 3.16 million units continued apace. Small SUV sales saw massive growth, with Encore, Chevrolet Trax and Captiva figures jumping 90 percent in Q3. Brand-wise, Chevrolet, Cadillac and Buick all saw sales gains in the PRC, with each recording double-digit year-over-year jumps. Cadillac sales alone were up 63 percent compared to the first nine months of 2013.
2016 Hennessey CTS-V is properly ridiculous with 1,000 horsepower
Thu, Apr 9 2015We truly live in a halcyon era of automotive performance with models like the latest Shelby GT350 Mustang and 707-horsepower Challenger Hellcat. And now Hennessey Performance Engineering is bringing something with absolutely obscene power to the world with its tuned 2016 Cadillac CTS-V that packs a ludicrous 1,000 horsepower. The latest CTS-V isn't even on sale yet but should be a powerhouse straight from the factory. Under its carbon fiber hood is a 6.2-liter supercharged LT4 V8 with 640 horsepower and 630 pound-feet of torque that makes the sedan capable of a 200-mile-per-hour top speed. Hennessey's take ditches the blower in favor of two turbos to feed air to the engine. To cope with the extra power, the mill gets upgrades like forged aluminum pistons and forged steel parts for the rods and crankshaft, and transmission upgrades are also necessary to make it all work. Buyers can even spec things like carbon-ceramic brakes and a widebody kit to allow for bigger tires. The crazy numbers are leading to some big performance claims from company founder John Hennessey. "I believe that our 2016 Twin Turbo CTS-V will have a top speed approaching 240 mph," he said in the Caddy's announcement. Hennessey is building just 24 of these 1,000-horsepower sedans for the 2016 model year. However, for those that want to keep the supercharger under the hood, the company is also offering upgrades with 750 hp and 800 hp for the CTS-V too. All of them sound absolutely ridiculous in an utterly fantastic way. 2016 HPE1000 Twin Turbo Cadillac CTS-V Texas Tuner Plans to Build World's Fastest 4-Door Sedan Sealy, Texas-When the next generation Cadillac CTS-V hits the streets later this year, it will have 640+ hp and a top speed of nearly 200 mph. To the team at Hennessey Performance Engineering (HPE), this is a good starting point. The company plans to pick-up where they left off with the last gen CTS-V by producing the world's fastest 4-door sedan: The Hennessey HPE1000 Twin Turbo CTS-V. "A couple of years ago, the State of Texas gave us the opportunity to test one of our specially tuned CTS-Vs – our VR1200 Twin Turbo coupe. It ran 221 mph (356 km/h) on State Highway 130, near the Circuit of the Americas", said company founder, John Hennessey. "It was still pulling on when we ran out of road. I believe that our 2016 Twin Turbo CTS-V will have a top speed approaching 240 mph (386 km/h)". Hennessey plans to offer a limited run of only 24 units for the 2016 model year.
Cadillac abandons plans for six-digit flagship sedan
Mon, 01 Jul 2013So much for that party. Cadillac has announced that it is walking away from plans to build a high-dollar, rear-wheel-drive ultraluxury sedan. The low-volume model would have been based on the lusty Ciel Concept, and the production iteration would have carried a price tag well over $100,000. Executives with the automaker reportedly claim the model wouldn't have bolstered the brand enough to be worth the investment.
Even so, Automotive News reports Cadillac is still on track to build a range-topping four-door to go head-to-head with the BMW 7 Series and Mercedes-Benz S-Class. That model will likely be constructed on the company's upcoming Omega rear-wheel-drive platform, but we won't see it bow until at least 2016. Right now, the front-wheel-drive XTS sits at the top of the Cadillac lineup, and while that machine and it's twin-turbocharged V6 variant makes a compelling argument against certain luxury entries, it falls short serving as a legitimate competitor for the likes of the 7 Series and S-Class for enthusiast drivers.
