This Cadillac is in great shape and runs as good as it looks. Driven daily last summer. Speedometer reads 70808, but should add about 400 miles from last years mileage. The speedometer cable broke last year as I pulled it out of storage. I am only the third owner of this car. A doctors wife bought it new and drove it during the summers until 1990 at which time my father purchased it. Beginning in 1998 he employed a body shop to complete a frame off restoration. Every part was stripped down, repaired, repainted, or replaced with all original Cadillac parts. The restoration was complete in the spring of 2000 at a cost of $18,000. The 472 cubic inch motor and transmission were rebuilt and the frame and underbody were thoroughly undercoated. In all of it's 41 years this car has never seen a winter road. All suspension and brake system parts were replaced with new. The interior is completely original leather. There is no major damage to the leather, however it is very old and isn't as supple as it once was. Both armrests are cracked as you can see in the photo's. You will also notice that there are a few areas with some rust. This is mostly evident around the fender skirts. The skirts themselves are in great shape, but were removed last year to install new rear tires. At that time the hardware used to secure the skirts to the body were too rusted to re-secure the skirts. There is also a slow leak at the rear seal of the transmission. More photos can be made available through email upon request. **Shipping will be the responsibility of the buyer.** I have a car hauler so a delivery deal may be negotiable.

Cadillac chief says ATS convertible, wagon on the table
Wed, 15 Jan 2014What we do know is that the ATS will wear at least one more bodystyle. That comes from Cadillac head Bob Ferguson, who answered "Absolutely" when Automotive News asked him about the possibility of another variant. What we don't know is what that bodystyle or styles will be.
We now have a sedan and coupe ATS, there's supposedly a V sedan coming. After that, a convertible is a likely option given that the man who just became the global product honcho at General Motors, Mark Reuss, admitted to having one already designed in 2012. The decision on it can't get out of the underworld and a wagon is the other option, but the droptop would seem to make the most sense if one considers the competitive set: the BMW 4 Series and Audi A5 convertibles are hot property and Mercedes is bringing a C-Class convertible. Meanwhile wagons are the sentimental utility vehicles that, refusing to die, seem forever destined for life support... CTS Sport Wagon, anyone?
Based on Ferguson's statements, it appears that what Cadillac definitely won't do is play model variant catch-up with the European luxury brands it has spent years hunting down, telling Automotive News, "We want to keep our focus on a limited number of vehicles and do them very well."
Cadillac's de Nysschen takes aim at Porsche 911, Cayenne
Mon, Nov 24 2014Johan de Nysschen has big plans for Cadillac. He's moved the brand from Detroit to New York, revamped its model nomenclature, and planning a raft of new models for the near future – including a $250,000 luxury sedan to take on the likes of Rolls-Royce and Bentley. But the veteran executive of luxury automakers has some more performance-oriented machinery in mind, too. Speaking with Car and Driver at the Los Angeles Auto Show last week, de Nysschen suggested Cadillac could be ready to launch a flagship sports car sometime in the next decade. The halo model would take aim at the Porsche 911 and do for Cadillac what Audi did with the R8, Mercedes is doing with the AMG GT and Acura once did (and is aiming to do again) with the NSX. Just what form it would take remains a big unknown, but de Nysschen indicated that the brand would need to be built up further before the sports car would be launched, lest it emerge too detached from Cadillac's image. The last time Cadillac delved into that territory was with the Corvette-based XLR, of which it sold only 15,000 or so examples – far below initial targets. The 911 rival isn't the only performance model de Nysschen has in mind, however. He plans to further expand the V series into a more substantial sub-brand to include a crossover to take on the likes of the Porsche Cayenne Turbo, BMW X5 M and all those many AMG-tuned Mercedes utilities. The idea of an entry-level model to slot in below the ATS was mooted as well. A range of diesel engines are slated to help Cadillac break into overseas markets in similar fashion to how Maserati has expanded its market reach with oil-burning versions of the Ghibli and Quattroporte. And we wouldn't be surprised to see Cadillac get in on a new flagship SUV being launched by Opel in Europe, either.
