Beautiful 1968 Cadillac Deville Convertible No Reserve!!!! on 2040-cars

Washington, Pennsylvania, United States

Up for auction is a 1968 Cadillac DeVille Convertible.  I have owned this car since 2010 and have done my best to baby it and get her back in the shape she deserves to be in. It has sat with a cover on it in a garage for the past 3 years; I probably only put about 35 miles on it. Unfortunately I have to part ways with it, but that's good luck for you!

The paint is in fantastic shape for the most part; there is minimal chipping and zero bubbling.  This car is 90% rust free.  There are a few tiny spots on the body, a few on the undercarriage, and some in the engine bay.  The right exhaust pipe has a hole in it.  I was planning on running a straight pipe back to replace it but clearly never got around to it.  I have pictures to detail any and all flaws.  

The red carpet is the original carpet and is in great condition.  The interior is custom red and white leather and looks absolutely beautiful.  There is a small slice in the drivers seat, and a piece of trim has come loose on the drivers side door.  Again, reference the pictures to see everything. 

I just replaced the battery a few days ago.  The engine cranks over every time with no hesitation.  

The top has a few small tears in it that could probably be patched no problem. 
The previous owner had speaker wire running throughout the vehicle.  Me not knowing enough about the wiring of a 68' Deville left that in place.  I'm sure it wouldn't be difficult to remove.  He also added a new head unit which you can see under the dash.  I kept that because it was nice to plug my iPhone into.

It leaks a bit of oil, and a bit of power steering fluid.  I started it up last weekend after sitting for a year and it fired right up.  The transmission was working perfectly before I stored it, but when I started it up it hesitated a bit.  My mechanic told me this was due to a clogged filter because it was just sitting around not being run.

This spectacular car is 90% done.  I'm leaving the last 10% up to the next owner.  If you're looking for a classic car that barely needs any work, you've found it here.

Also,  I have the original 1968 hubcaps for the DeVille in the trunk of the car.  The original owners manual and extra fuses are in the glove box.  There are also the correct wheel studs I purchased (the previous owner didn't have the right hardware) but did not put on that are in the car as well.

Please don't hesitate to ask me any questions you may have as I would be happy to answer them!!

Thanks for looking and good luck!

Consumer Reports loves the 2014 Cadillac CTS

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

Our first drive of the 2014 Cadillac CTS was just published today... we really liked the Vsport version. And Consumer Reports has some even stronger words of praise for the all-new luxury sedan. We already knew that Cadillac had stepped up its game with the third-gen CTS, but CR bluntly states that the sedan drives better than its German luxury counterparts.
While CR shows plenty of love for the new CTS, the outlet still takes issue with some of the in-car technology including the CUE infotainment system - no surprise there. The testers' offer all manner of positive comments where the impressive handling capabilities of the sedan are concerned, with lots of drifting around CR's private test facility in evidence to bear them out. Scroll down to watch the CTS get put through its paces.

Reuss says Cadillac CT6-based Buick could happen

Wed, Apr 15 2015

Could the upcoming Cadillac CT6 and its Omega platform spawn a Buick variant? According to General Motors' product chief Mark Reuss, it could potentially be in the cards, but "not yet." "We're working on that," Reuss told Automotive News at the 2015 New York Auto Show. While there hasn't been a large, rear-drive Buick on dealerships since the Roadmaster in 1996, the company gave a big hint that it could head in that direction with the Avenir Concept, shown earlier this year at the Detroit Auto Show. As Automotive News explains, a rear-drive Omega-platform Buick could be a real hit in China, where consumers buy 13 Buicks for every one Cadillac. That move would be a big help to GM's bottom line, too, as it'd significantly increase the Omega platform's economy of scale. If a large Buick based on the CT6 were to head to China, though, it likely wouldn't be a simple case of badge engineering (thank God). Reuss hinted to Automotive News that while the mixed-material construction of the CT6 platform "is very flexible," doing an "identical version of that platform or not is a different conversation." What are your thoughts? Should Buick adopt the Omega platform for an Avenir-based sedan? Should that vehicle be sold here in the US, or should it be a China-only offering? Have your say in Comments.

Cadillac ELR getting massive discounts, some up to $14,000

Mon, Jul 14 2014

Well, that didn't go as planned. General Motors had marketed the Cadillac ELR extended-range plug-in as a premium version of the Chevrolet Volt with some Caddy refinements. Now, it looks like that premium, at least from a price standpoint, is shrinking. Shoppers in a number of states are reporting that GM and its dealers are discounting the ELR in order to move more off dealer lots. The issue is that few people are biting at the official price tag of about $76,000, so GM has started offering as much as $8,000 worth of dealer and customer incentives, Transport Evolved reports. More recently, dealers in states such as Florida, Texas and Maryland are offering discounts in the $12,000-to-$14,000 range, and that's before any federal and state plug-in incentives kick in. It's not difficult to guess why. Through the first half of the year, GM sold fewer than 400 ELRs. Last month, Caddy moved just 97 units, or about as many as Tesla sells of its Model S in a day. Perpahs recent spy shots that reveal a test ELR that appears to up the sportiness quotient, with touches such as larger wheels and brakes, will also help sales. Check out Autoblog's "First Drive" impressions of the ELR here.
