Beautyfull 1977 Cadillac Coupe DeVille for sale, it rides like a dream and runs good. Engine is a massive 425 c.i. with a sound similar to a lions roar, the trunk is massive and I think Jimmy Hoffa is lost somewhere in there and it has seating for you and five of your amigos. I don't like to sell it, but I have limited time (work alot) and money to restore it and I have three other cars to work on. It is a very nice car that just needs some TLC to become a great car. Mileage exempt, should be around 180 000 miles. It is a five digit meter showing 80 000, but I'm sure it's rolled over still incredible solid car for it's age, no rattle or squeeks, SUPER comfortable floaty ride! Could be driven every day, no problem, but this cool car deserves to be restored :)
I have fixed a lot of stuff like the original radio, and put on a lot of new (original part) parts, new interstate battery, new original AC Delco alternator (1 year 12000 mile warranty), new rear tires, new brake lines, new upper radiator hose, new wheaterstripping around driver door and trunk (15 year warranty), new window filt on driver side, new driver side floorpan (90 rust free warranty), new AC Delco spark plugs, new air duct with air filter, new heater hose, installed new door lock actuator and window motor (driver side), AC Blows cold and was just filled full with freon, retrofitted modern unit, got lots of new parts for it like door seals and door/window filt. Most of the parts come with warranty and I have all the recipts and part order slips for you.
I have been very carefull at servicing and maintaining the car, I go to valvoline and get my oil changes with the good oil (no synthetic stuff either). The car has had two owners before me I believe, was last restored in 1994 and is near complete original, 90 percent I would say. The major stuff to do on it is rustwork, rework the vinyl top and a new exhaust end, still this is a nice car and it wouldn't take too much work to make it a show car as all the plastic fillers are on the car (which are rare on 70-80s cadillacs) exept the one behind the liscence plate (around 150-200 on junkyard or rubbertherightway). Does about 21 mpg while cruising at around 55-60 mph not too bad, but floor it and you'll see about half of that.
If I feel the price is right (above 2000ish) I'll throw in a new car cover, haynes manual, new owners manual, an awesome Cadillac pen and perhaps some other goodies :)

How GM's grueling 24-hour test gets the kinks out of its performance cars
Tue, 27 Aug 2013One of the biggest challenges automakers face when designing a high-performance car is making sure that it is both fast and reliable. For General Motors, any car that might be taken to the track by its owner - like the Corvette, Camaro Z/28 (shown above) and the Cadillac CTS-V, for example - undergoes a rigorous and strenuous 24-hour test by engineers at the Milford Proving Grounds, as pointed out by Car and Driver.
We've posted on this topic in the past - on a video showing the Camaro ZL1 being brutalized, for instance - but this article gives a more in-depth look at what actually happens behind the scenes... including what that poor ZL1 went through. Though the test isn't for 24 hours straight, the cars are pushed as hard as possible by some of GM's best drivers with only the brakes and tires replaced frequently.
We don't want to ruin the fun for you, but it is an interesting article that tells just some of what GM does to develop its sports cars. Check out the full article over at Car and Driver for the rest of the story.
GM posts $4 billion third-quarter profit thanks to trucks and SUVs
Thu, Nov 5 2020DETROIT — General Motors is posting huge third quarter numbers, pulling in $4 billion in profit over three months after losing money due to the virus outbreak. GM's adjusted earnings were $2.83 per share, easily outpacing Wall Street's per-share projections of $1.43, according to a survey by FactSet. Revenue of $35.5 billion also edged out most expectations. Shares jumped almost 6% before the opening bell Thursday. The company swung back from a $806 million loss in the second quarter, when it was restarting factories shuttered for safety during the early stages of the pandemic. The Detroit automaker joined most global automakers in reporting better-than-expected earnings from July through September as sales across the globe started to rebound from coronavirus lockdowns, especially in China. GM sales in China jumped 12% in the third quarter, with sales of its Buick and Cadillac brands both rising more than 25%. In the U.S., GMÂ’s most profitable market, sales fell 9.9% in the third quarter compared with a year ago, but were a dramatic improvement over the 34% drop in the second quarter. Sales improved sequentially each month, the automaker said, an encouraging trend. GMÂ’s profit was boosted by higher-priced pickup trucks and large SUVs, which have seen strong sales in the U.S. through the pandemic. It was the best quarter on record for GM's Chevrolet Blazer. Sales of the Cadillac XT6 spiked 45% in the U.S. over last year. Large pickups also sold well. GM also said it was pumping $2 billion into its Spring Hill, Tennessee manufacturing plant to push its transition to produce electric vehicles. Last week, crosstown rivals Fiat Chrysler and Ford reported strong third-quarter net income. FCA said it made $1.4 billion for the period, while Ford earned $2.39 billion.

GM to add 1,200 workers at 2 Michigan factories
Sat, Feb 29 2020DETROIT — General Motors is adding 1,200 jobs at two Michigan factories to build midsize SUVs and two new luxury sedans. GM said Friday that its Lansing Delta Township plant will get a third shift and 800 more workers to build the Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave SUVs, which have three rows of seats. The Lansing Grand River plant will get a second shift and 400 more workers to build two new Cadillac sedans, the CT4 and CT5. Employees laid off at other GM factories will fill the new jobs first, then workers will be added, GM spokesman Dan Flores said. The company has not determined yet how many new people will be needed, he said. Both additional shifts will start working sometime between April and June, the company said. Lansing Delta Township now employs about 2,500 salaried and blue-collar workers, while the Grand River plant has 1,400. GM sold more than 147,000 Traverse SUVs in the U.S. last year, a 0.4% increase from 2018. Enclave sales were up 3% to just over 51,000, according to Autodata Corp. Related Video:
