owner, has been consistent over the years, and has remained with the car today. Fans know that Elvis Presley loved
Cadillacs, and he really loved flashy Cadillacs. He also made sure they were modified to his taste. Everyone has
heard the true story of Elvis and June Juanico flying to a Houston, TX. Cadillac dealer June 12, 1956, and buying
a white 1956 Eldorado Biarritz convertible with black interior. He immediately turned it over to his customizer,
Jimmy Sanders, of Memphis. He squashed a handful of grapes on the fender and told Jimmy that was the color he
wanted. Hence, his purple convertible came to be. He also changed the interior to white roll and pleated leather.
The coupe in this ad, according to verbal history, was purchased and given by Presley to his manager, Colonel Tom
Parker. The car was an unimpressive green and white with green and white interior. Presley bought the car, then
stipulated that it be repainted red and white and a red and white interior installed. Later, Elvis also gave Parker
a 1975 Blue Cadillac Seville, that displayed the TN. license plate “ADMIRAL”. Clean southern body. Paint is good driver quality, some older and some newer blend work on the quarters. Mandan red
and alpine white two tone. Dual rear antennas. EZ Eye safety glass is in good condition. White sidewall tires and
Eldorado saber spoked wheel covers. Chrome and stainless is in good condition. Tasteful pin striping on hood and
deck lid. Fit and gapping is all good.
Red and white leather interior. Seats and cushions in good condition. Door panels in good condition. Interior
chrome trim is in good condition. Would clean up more with a little work. Original steering wheel is in good
condition, with a few cracks. Power windows. Air conditioning. Signal seeking radio. Autronic Eye headlamp dimmer.
Aftermarket tachometer mounted on the eye. Overall nice interior, comfortable, good looking, and well appointed.
365 Cu. In. Cadillac engine. Engine and engine bay are primarily in stock configuration. The exceptions- the Carter
WCFB carburetor has been replaced with an Edelbrock Competition Series four barrel. The bat wing air cleaner has
been replaced with a chrome pie pan type. Upgraded to electronic ignition. Dual exhaust. Hydra-Matic automatic
transmission.
Trunk area is clean and solid as a rock. Undercarriage is not detailed, but is also clean and solid.
This is the chance to own a car that most Cadillac enthusiasts would love to have. It is rare, unique, and
investment quality. Priced significantly under book value, leaving plenty on the table if you choose to do some
more restoration work. Runs and drives as well as it looks. Don’t hesitate.

GM recalls 3.6 million vehicles for airbag-software problems
Fri, Sep 9 2016The Basics: General Motors is recalling 3.64 million vehicles across its lineup for an airbag-related issue. The recall covers the 2014-2015 Buick LaCrosse, Chevrolet SS, and Spark EV; 2014-2017 Chevrolet Corvette, Trax, Caprice PPV, Silverado 1500, Buick Encore, and GMC Sierra 1500; and 2015-2017 Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, Silverado HD, GMC Yukon, Yukon XL, Sierra HD, Cadillac Escalade, and Escalade ESV. The Problem: Affected vehicles have a sensing and diagnostic module that controls the airbags and seat-belt pretensioners. The software it uses has a defect that can prompt the module to run a diagnostic test under specific driving conditions, which will also deactivate the front airbags and pretensioners. This means that it would be possible for those safety systems to not activate in a crash, potentially leading to injury or death. Injuries/Deaths: General Motors began an investigation that led to the recall after a 2014 Silverado was involved in a crash in which the airbags did not deploy. No information was given as to injuries or deaths. The Fix: Owners can bring their vehicles to a local General Motors dealer where a software update will be installed to fix the issue. The fix will be free of charge. If you own one: General Motors will contact owners of affected cars, and owners can check whether their vehicles are affected by visiting entering their vehicle identification numbers at either the GM Owner Center website or the NHTSA website. Owners can then schedule a time to have the update installed. Related Video:
Cadillac ATS coupe and sedan get Midnight Editions
Sun, Jul 19 2015Horror stories and fairy tales make a mint by having the scariest things happen at midnight, but automakers make a mint by marketing midnight. Chevrolet busted out a Silverado Midnight Edition early this year, followed shortly thereafter by an Impala Midnight Edition. In between those two we got the Cadillac CTS Midnight Edition, and now comes an ATS following in the zero-dark-thirty tradition, according to GM Inside News. The ATS Midnight Edition will add $1,695 to the sedan price and $600 to the coupe. For that cash outlay you get black chrome on the grille, around the windows, and on the rear fascia, 18-inch "After Midnight" wheels, "sueded microfiber" trim on the steering wheel and shifter, plus the Cold Weather Package with a heated steering wheel and heated front seats. Just those few exterior changes make a big difference up front, increasing the appeal and aggression of the sports sedan without being ostentatious. You can't go dark with just any old ATS, though. The package is limited to rear- and all-wheel-drive versions of the Performance trim. And the color palette is reduced to four hues: Crystal White Tricoat, Red Obsession Tintcoat, Phantom Gray Metallic, and Black Raven. The three possible interior combos are Light Platinum with Jet Black accents, Morello Red with Jet Black accents, and Jet Black with Jet Black accents.

Cadillac dealers get $5,000 incentive for ELR test drives
Tue, 13 May 2014The 530 Cadillac dealers - out of 940 total dealers - that signed on to sell the brand's ELR for $75,000 or lease it for $699 per month have managed to move 247 of them in the last five months. That's a little less than two cars for each dealer more than two dealers for each car if you need help with the math. With inventories of the luxury plug-in hybrid building up - Automotive News reports a 725-day supply - General Motors has created the Demonstrator Allowance Program to billow the sails on that slow moving ship, giving dealers $5,000 to promote ELR test drives.
A dealer with one ELR in its test fleet that racks up 750 test driven miles between May 1 and June 2 earns the fifty Benjamins, a dealer with two ELRs in the test fleet will get one hundred Benjamins. That will be added to summer incentives for dealers that pay $2,000 for units sold in July and $1,000 for units sold in August, while on the customer side, Cadillac has put "customer discount certificates" worth $3,000 on the hood for buyers and lessees.
Cadillac suggests this is about raising awareness of the ELR, but the question is how much dealers will be able to do for a car that observers - and buyers, apparently - still consider highly overpriced.
