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

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!

2014 Cadillac CTS images leak from somewhere

Sun, 24 Mar 2013

The redesigned 2014 Cadillac CTS will be unveiled this Tuesday on the eve of the New York Auto Show, but as often happens, some images of the car have leaked onto the web a few days early. Previously, the only information we had on the 2014 CTS concerned the all-new twin-turbo V6 engine that will be found underhood, rated at 420 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque.
While none show the new car in its entirety, the images do show much of the front end, particularly the headlights that feature vertical bars of LEDs that start down low as foglights and continue up to the top of the front fenders. They're similar to the lighting design first shown on the XTS and ATS, except the lower portions are much taller.
There are also views of the rear end and one of the taillights, as well as an interior shot of the front passenger door. The latter image has us most intrigued, as it shows some very high end materials being used in the new CTS interior. The low-gloss wood trim, in particular, looks very premium.

Weekly Recap: Car-pedestrian crashes remained elevated in 2014

Sat, Feb 28 2015

The death of American Horror Story: Freak Show star Ben Woolf served as a reminder this week that car crashes involving pedestrians remain a problem, and a new study issued on Thursday reinforced that the situation isn't really getting better. The Governors Highway Safety Association found a slight decline, 2.8 percent, in the number of pedestrian deaths in the first six months of 2014. Fatalities dropped from 2,141 to 2,125 compared with the same period in 2013, though the association says it's a statistical wash when factoring in undercounting. Deaths are still 15-percent higher than in 2009. "The number of deaths remains relatively high and is cause for concern," wrote Allan Williams, who compiled the report and is the former chief scientist at the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. This is the first look at data from last year, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration will issue its full-year results later. The GHSA found some progress on the roadways, as 24 states and the District of Columbia reported drops in pedestrian deaths. In some states, the problem isn't even a problem at all: Nebraska and Wyoming reported one fatality apiece, though large population centers in urban areas are where most accidents occur. "This is a clearly a good news, bad news scenario," Jonathan Adkins, GHSA executive director, said in a statement. "While we're encouraged that pedestrian fatalities haven't increased over the past two years, progress has been slow." Other News & Notes Cadillac previews CT6 during Oscars Cadillac previewed its upcoming flagship sedan, the CT6, in commercials that aired Sunday during the Oscars. As expected, the creased sedan carries on Cadillac's recent design language, and the car in the commercial looks like a larger version of the CTS and ATS sedans. The CT6 will be revealed this spring at the New York Auto Show and launch late this year. It will be assembled at General Motors' Detroit-Hamtramck factory on a rear-wheel-drive chassis, and the CT6 is the first car to use Cadillac's revised alpha-numeric naming scheme. The commercials also kicked off Cadillac's "Dare Greatly" campaign, which is the first with its new advertising agency, Publicis Worldwide. Honda unexpectedly changes CEOs Honda unexpectedly announced this week that it will change CEOs. Current chief Takanobu Ito will step down in June and be replaced by company veteran Takahiro Hachigo.

Hear the new Cadillac CTS-V torture some tires

Thu, Dec 25 2014

The 2016 Cadillac CTS-V seems like the type of wonderful gift that Santa might cook up in his workshop for one extraordinarily good boy or girl. However, the first chance for most people to actually see the super sedan and its carbon fiber pieces in real life is at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show in January. As a stocking stuffer until then, Caddy has released this video highlighting the latest V-Series roasting its tires better than any dinner for the holidays. With the supercharged 6.2-liter V8 from the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 nestled into the CTS-V's engine bay, the Cadillac certainly has quite a bark coming from its exhaust. The mill might be detuned slightly from the 'Vette to 640 horsepower and 630 pound-feet of torque, but that's still plenty for this smoky application. Enjoy this tease of the future V-Series, ahead of the Detroit show.
