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 welcomes back Entourage favorite Ari Gold

Mon, May 18 2015

With publicity for the long-awaited Entourage movie ramping up, we're finding that one of the stars of the film happens to be the handsome Cadillac Ciel Concept convertible. It makes a number of appearances in the trailers with Vince, E, Turtle, and Johnny Drama cruising about, despite the fact that it isn't actually a production vehicle. We guess it pays to be Aquaman and Enzo Ferrari. Supporting its tie-in with the flim, Cadillac has enlisted Jeremy Piven, famed for his roll as outrageous, obnoxious, abrasive, and amusing talent agent Ari Gold, to star alongside its droptop sedan. The pair are the focus of a four-minute featurette welcoming the actor's character back while expounding on the series-ending cliffhanger that basically made the movie a sure thing. Take a look at the spot, which was directed and written by Entourage creator Doug Ellin. And be sure to check out the brotastic HBO series when it makes the jump to the big screen on June 3.

Cadillac Elmiraj has production potential

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

There are many reasons to love the Cadillac Elmiraj Concept, but not the least of which is how production-ready this big coupe appears to be. Take out the overly fancy interior and a few conceptual elements of the exterior, and this looks like a coupe that could be in dealers now as the successor to the Eldorado.
On top of that, Automotive News is quoting Bob Ferguson, Cadillac senior vice president, as saying that a production version of this car is "very doable." AN adds that if the Monterey showstopper gets the green-light, this car would compete against the upcoming Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe and would based on Cadillac's upcoming rear-wheel-drive flagship sedan due out in 2015. The range-topping coupe would debut sometime after the sedan model. Cross your fingers.

Cadillac ELR update delayed over autonomous drive systems issues

Fri, Nov 28 2014

Rumors had been circulating that the 2016 Cadillac ELR would bow in Los Angeles recently, featuring, in Cadillac's own words, "engineering enhancements." The rumors and that quote are as far as it got – the updated ELR pulled a no-show in LA, and no one outside of the brand appears to know when it will appear. GM Inside News says its sources at Cadillac pinned the ELR's absence on some autonomous driving features not being ready to reveal. According to GMI, Cadillac insiders say the upgraded ELR will be a "highly autonomous vehicle," and the company needs more time to gets its systems polished. The site says "it's not unreasonable to assume that ELR will be [the] vehicle" that gets Cadillac's Super Cruise technology, but that seems a lot more involved than "engineering enhancements," and in September Cadillac said we'd see it sometime in the next two years. It's possible the wait for the 2016 ELR and its secrets might only be a couple of months: the next-generation Chevrolet Volt, which shares a platform with the ELR and whose engineering updates we know quite a bit about, is scheduled to appear at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show in January.
