This Car is also being listed locally , So I do reserve the right to end the auction at any time.
This Cadillac is well documented, and will come with loads of service records, owners manual, and the protecto plate.
This caddy was keep in one family all its life till just recently, it was keep in great shape. Nothing has been redone, orig. paint ,interior etc. just basic service things were done through the years. Chrome is nice, light lens nice. Trim and emblems are all there and in good shape. Has A/C but has not been converted. Recently had new plugs, points, condenser, and cap&rotor installed.
Keep in mind this is a 43 year old car that has not been messed with, the paint is nice but has normal wear for the age few small nicks & light scratches. One small area about 1" in size on front by hood that has been touched up by previouse owner. The body is very nice considering it is original- only a few areas that need attention - Driver side lower front fender close to were it bolts on at the bottom has a area about 3.5"tall x 8" or so long that could use a small patch, also same spot on the passenger side, but not as bad. I have a sheet of patch steel already marked to be cut that will come with the car to repair these areas. Other then that the only other area is the trunk lid top has some patina rust, just needs sanded and painted. That is the worst of it all. Has one little ding in the rubber piece on the rear bumper-hardly noticeable, one small ding on the passenger side fender hardly noticeableband one small ding on the driver side door. It has good doors, door jams, good rockers, Good rear quarters , nice chrome. Also has a trailer hitch option that was installed be the previous owner nice extra feature if you plan on going to shows, if you do not want it on you could remove it, Normal surface rust under the hood around inner edges, floor pans from what I can tell are good, trunk pan is good( has some light surface rust but no rot,) all these things are not that bad , just wanting to give as much detail as possible. For a caddy this old, these are minimal cosmetic things. Whit top is in decent shape-still looks nice but has normal wear for the age, a few small bubbles starting on rear area close to back window.
The Interior: Again Original- Nice Dash, Old Carpet (normal wear-but overall nice ) Seats- Nice only found one small area on driver seat with a little tear(common area on most cars- I think it could be sewed up) all the gadgets seem to work good including the power windows. Has the radio, speakers are old, and could stand to be replaced. Good Glass & Trim. Headlinner- all there, Looks pretty good, Normal wear.
Engine- Very nice Big block 472, Runs good nice big block sound. Lots of power. Could use cleaned up a bit but operates nice, Has New points, plugs, condenser, cap and rotor, Newer master cylinder, ,and other basic tune up items. Transmission shifts smooth, Brakes stop good.
Pretty decent tires, I am sure I forgot a few things, so just ask if you need any further info.
So overall- Original Car, not show room, but nice survivor, petty clean Runs/Drives, great chance to get an original!

Vehicle must be picked up by the buyer at its current location in Anderson INDIANA, I will not be hauling it., or shipping it . If you live far away you would probably want to haul it due to gas prices -big blocks are not the most economical on gas. I have been driving it around and it does fine, but it was setting a while one I first got it. Added high octane gas and tune up, seems to be good but if it were me I would haul it.

Cadillac considering more engines, Vsport model for Escalade
Tue, 15 Jul 2014Want to roll in the latest Cadillac Escalade? You can get it with a 6.2-liter V8... or a 6.2-liter V8. Cadillac only offers the one engine option. But that may soon change.
According to the latest from Automotive News, Cadillac is contemplating a couple of new powertrain options for its blingin' big ute. The report suggests a twin-turbo V6 and a V6 turbodiesel could be offered, and that Cadillac could create a Vsport version of the Escalade like it offers on the new CTS sedan.
The more diverse engine offerings would help attract buyers from the new Lincoln Navigator, its prime competitor, which switched from a 5.4-liter V8 this year to a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6. The turbo V6 engines (both gasoline and diesel) would also help Cadillac market the Escalade overseas - particularly in Europe, where higher fuel prices preclude the prospect of driving a big V8 SUV for many buyers. Escalade sales have dropped from 35-40k units in the mid-2000s to around 12,000 the past couple of years.
Cool car technology is cool until it breaks
Fri, Mar 27 2015Ah, technology – the beautiful date that impresses all your friends but costs you a fortune to keep happy, up-to-date, and working. Automotive News puts some numbers to the economic toll we're paying to jockey this technological Trojan horse, an analysis it sums up with "Technology is great - until you have to replace it." Back in 2000, for instance, you could replace a Cadillac Escalade taillight lens for $56.08, or replace the entire unit for $220.49. Crack the rear lens on your 2015 Escalade and you have to buy a new unit for $795 - there's no such thing as just replacing a lens anymore. What about headlights? It was $210 for an Escalade headlight in 2000, it's $1,650 for the current unit (pictured). This is nothing we didn't know, these are just hard numbers to demonstrate it. Edmunds recently provided the same with its sledgehammer-bashing of the 2015 Ford F-150, Tesla Model S buyers have been shrieking about repair costs to their electric sedan's all-aluminum bodywork, and used-car sites are full of articles about which expensive-to-repair features to steer clear of if you want to avoid big repair bills. Those expensive bits increase the price of a car - Kelley Blue Book says the average price of a car is now more than $33,000 - and that raises rates for repairs and insurance. This comes in spite of some carmakers that have been collaborating with insurance companies and repair shops at the design stage in order to engineer parts that are easier and less expensive to replace. But the tech can have its cost-saving benefits: a 2011 study by the Highway Loss Data Institute found that Volvos fitted with that company's City Safety feature "filed 27 percent fewer property-damage liability claims" than luxury SUVs without it, and just last month the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety called adaptive headlights one of the top four crash-preventing technologies on cars today (after coming out against them in 2006). So yes, the technology costs a mint when it needs to be fixed - but being able to avoid an accident in the first place might make it worth it.

2014 Cadillac ELR whirs into Jay Leno's Garage
Tue, 18 Jun 2013While Jerry Seinfeld was gallivanting around LA with Sarah Silverman in a Jaguar XKE, our favorite car-loving comedian, Jay Leno, was checking out the all-new 2014 Cadillac ELR. Set to go on sale later this year, Cadillac brought its ELR to Jay Leno's Garage to show off some of its styling and technology as well as give Leno some seat time in the range-extended EV. Leno owns both a Volt and a CTS-V, and the ELR is a kind combination of the two (sort of).
In this episode, Leno spends some time talking to Frank Saucedo, GM director of advanced design, and ELR chief engineer Chris Thomason before logging a few miles on the sleek coupe. Interestingly, it seems that GM has definitely changed its tune a little since the introduction of the Volt a couple years ago; Saucedo and Leno both refer to the ELR as a hybrid, and Thomason says that it gets the "bulk of its propulsion" from the electric motors. Whatever you want to call it, scroll down to watch the latest episode of JLG with some great information and driving shots of the plug-in Cadillac.
