You are sure to be noticed in this land yacht. Float down the road in style! One of the greatest years of the Eldorado and the largest engine Cadillac ever made.

For Cadillac, the front-wheel-drive 1967-1969 Cadillac Eldorado was a revolutionary development, as important as the 1915 V-8, the 1930 Sixteen, the 1938 Sixty Special, and the 1949 V-8. It was the first Cadillac with FWD.

The 1967, 1968, 1969 Cadillac Eldorado was a big, luxurious car that featured fine engineering and attractive, revolutionary styling.
Specifications:
Engines: all ohv V-8; 1967 429 cid (4.13 x 4.00), 340 bhp; 1968-1969 472 cid (4.30 x 4.06), 375 bhp
Transmission: 3-speed Turbo Hydra-Matic
Suspension, front: upper and lower A-arms, torsion bars, stabilizer bar
Suspension, rear: live axle, leaf springs
Brakes: 1967 front/rear drums (front discs optional); 1968-1969 front discs/rear drums
Wheelbase (in.): 120.0
Weight (lbs.): 4,500-4,580

In addition to its superb, razor-edge styling, the 1967, 1968, 1969 Cadillac Eldorado was blessed with fine engineering. What Cadillac had specified was a big, luxurious car with all the traditional virtues allied to outstanding roadability -- a combination it arguably never offered before.

Condition: Eldorado is in very good condition. 78,033 Miles on car, 30,000 on rebuilt engine. New interstate battery. New Edelbrock carburetor. New starter. Recently replaced transmission. Has some radiator issues, probably needs gaskets and not a new radiator. Cracked vinyl upholstery on front seats and interior door handles (see photos). Some rust under leather rooftop (see photo). Trunk latch needs repair (closes but does not sink in and seal as designed). Spare tire damaged. Overall very clean. Chrome very good, no dents or dings. Carpet a bit soiled but in good shape. Please see photos and feel free to ask for more photos or any questions on condition.

I am selling this car for a friend of mine. He is the third owner of the vehicle. It is located in Fairfax, Marin County, California. Local pickup will be from that location, or buyer may arrange shipping service.

Please ask questions and feel free to request more photos.

This is a Sweet Ride!

2013 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year finalists announced [w/poll]

Wed, 12 Dec 2012

2012 is almost in the books and automakers are spending December gearing up for the 2013 auto show season, which tips off next month at the Detroit Auto Show. Traditionally, the latter opens up with the announcement of the North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards, and this year figures to be no different.
But up until this moment, we didn't know which six vehicles would be parked ahead of the stage as finalists, with executives and engineers waiting for the winners to be disclosed. Whittled down from October's "short list" of nominees (11 cars and 10 truck/utility vehicles), the finalists are as follows:

This 1969 Ford F-100 has a Cadillac CTS-V engine lurking underhood

Fri, Jan 30 2015

Something always feels just a little taboo when someone builds a custom and then slots in a powertrain from a rival automaker. That's exactly the case with this modded 1969 Ford F-100 boasting a highly tuned LSA supercharged V8 like from the second-gen Cadillac CTS-V. However, with a claimed 800 horsepower on tap thanks in part to running an estimated 20 pounds of boost, it's easy to get over any bad feelings. Built by Tommy Pike Customs in South Carolina, the truck tries to keep the exterior looking somewhat stock. Although, the jade green and satin gold paint, Quaker State logo, lowered suspension and black wheels immediately suggest something is up. Once the F-100 starts up with its menacing growl, absolutely any doubts of this beast being unaltered are immediately gone. Not so obvious are some tweaks to actually help put all that power down, including disc brakes and independent suspension setups at the front and rear. The video gives some glimpses at a few of Pike's other creations, but the real star here is definitely his mean, green Ford.

Cadillac to fight Audi A3, Mercedes CLA with small rear-drive sedan?

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

Compact luxury sedans are fast becoming the trend among upscale automakers. Mercedes has the new CLA (and its many platform-mates), BMW has the 1 Series and 2 Series, Audi has the A3 and, though Lexus apparently isn't interested in anything smaller than its CT 200h, Infiniti is getting in on the action with a compact model of its own. It would only follow logically, then, that Cadillac should launch a competitor, and according to the latest reports, that's just what it has in store.
Speaking with Car and Driver, Cadillac marketing chief Uwe Ellinghaus confirmed that such a project is in the works. But unlike its rivals, Cadillac aims to go with a rear-wheel-drive layout. This despite research that apparently indicates that a surprising 80 percent of owners think that their BMW 1 Series is front-drive. It's the driving dynamics and styling proportions that motivate Ellinghaus and his colleagues to stick with rear-drive, however.
The new model would in all likelihood be based on the same GM Alpha architecture that underpins the ATS and CTS - a platform that has helped Cadillac keep the weight down on both models and which is expected to underpin the next-generation Chevy Camaro, as well. The sub-ATS could be positioned as a four-door 2+2, however, as the ATS grows a little larger in its next iteration in order to make room for its new baby brother.
