Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"I had hoped to restore this car but the person who was compensated to do it skipped town. The car is pretty bare bones as he stripped all chrome, headlights, etc off before stopping work. I will be selling those parts in separate auctions. Body work is 85% done. Trunk is not bolted to hinges. Top is pretty thrashed. Top mechanics seem to start working but will definitely need work and adjustment. I Seats are thrashed as is the carpet, dash, etc. Car starts up and idles nicely, but goes to zero pressure quickly according to a mechanic that recently checked it out. I am not mechanically inclined, so I am turning this over to someone that can work on it and get it back to where it needs to be. Tires are holding air, but I wouldn't drive the car on them due to their age. Again, car runs, but will need to be towed on flatbed from its current location. Shows 44788 miles, not sure if it is 44788 or 144788. What you see in the pictures is what you get. No other parts are included."

I am selling a car that I have owned since 2007. I hired someone to do the restoration project, but they bailed without completing the work. The car has been driven a total of about 10 miles since purchase. Prior to me buying it, it sat for 10 years. It is listed on non-op status right now, but was previously registered through 2010 or 2011. This car is pretty bare bones as the guy stripped most of the parts off the car to do the body work and painting. I will sell those parts in separate auctions. The car is in San Diego and you will need to arrange pickup within 7 days of the close of auction. I will not arrange shipping. I have a copy of the title in hand.

Car was stripped down to bare metal and primered before going on non-op status. Weatherstripping was removed. Door panels are not on the car anymore. All windows are still there and all window regulators were there and working as of 2 years ago. I cannot guarantee that they work now, but they should.

To be clear...What you see in the pictures is what you get. No other parts are included. Car is sold as is, where is. I have been as clear as I can about the condition as I know it.

Thanks and good luck! I hope someone can rescue this baby and return it to its former glory! Only 16K of these '76 convertibles were made so I don't want to see it get scrapped.

Cadillac ATS-V shares track time and new face with CTS-V sibling

Tue, 24 Jun 2014

It's been about eight months since we last heard anything on the eagerly anticipated Cadillac ATS-V, meaning it was high time a new batch of photos arrived of the twin-turbocharged, V6-powered sedan.
This latest round includes a shot of the hot ATS-V alongside the upcoming CTS-V, allowing us to glimpse through the camouflage and spot the family resemblance between the two über sedans. According to our spies, this is the first time we've gotten a look at the ATS-V's fascia without a nose bra to obscure larger details. This isn't the first time we've seen a vertically slated grille on an in-development Cadillac V car, although it is the first time we've seen it on the ATS-V. Aside from the main grille, the shapes of the sportier front fascia of the ATS-V tie in nicely with its big brother. We are rather curious about the hood on the ATS-V. It's difficult to tell from these images, but it looks like there may be some vents up there that may be meant to improve cooling to the alleged 425-horsepower engine.
Other details that we can see include swollen fenders and larger wheels that hide amplified brakes. The rear of the car remains heavily obscured by camo, with the sole details of note being the quad exhausts, which we've spotted on previous ATS-V prototypes.

Weekly Recap: Auto execs face life in prison for recall delays under proposed legislation

Sat, 09 Aug 2014

The stiff punishments are part of broader transportation legislation, but clearly McCaskill has automakers in her sights.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill threw down the gauntlet this week, proposing a bill that could send auto executives to prison for life if they were found to have delayed a recall. She also wants to eliminate the limit for fines for auto safety violations, which are currently capped at $35 million.

Cadillac XTS to become Opel flagship sedan?

Tue, 24 Jul 2012

According to Auto-News.de, Opel is considering using Cadillac's all-new big sedan, the XTS, as the base for its new flagship car, which would likely carry the name Omega.
WorldCarFans.com speculates that Opel could use GM's 3.6-liter direct-injection V6 that generates 304 horsepower or, possibly, a 2.8-liter turbocharged six-cylinder engine that creates 321 horsepower to power the vehicle. The European automaker could even use a 195-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder engine in this application - fine, since many of Europe's largest sedans are powered by smaller, more efficient engines.
Regardless of power, the Omega could arrive at dealerships by the end of 2013.
