1995 Cadillac Eldorado Base Coupe 2-door 4.6l Bagged 2nd Owner. on 2040-cars
Beckley, West Virginia, United States
I am selling my 1995 Cadillac Eldorado. The car was bought by my neighbor when new and was driven very rarely due to health reasons. I bought the car last May when it had just over 20k miles and drove it for the last year while on rotation for school, and I made a few changes along the way. The car was basically a 15 year old new car... I have replaced a wheel bearing on the drivers side and also a cv joint, I did both of these while I had it apart and they were cheap enough..lol I swapped the rims to some 18's with the same as factory offset and swapped out the suspension. I have listed below,the parts I ordered from bagriders.com for the air ride, but it doesn't list every thing I bought... I also retrofitted non-electronic ride struts up front that would work with the air bags. I also swapped out sway bar links up front with replacements that would flex a bit better. I also installed a quick coupling fitting on the air tank in the trunk and have an air hose included that will reach the tires in case of a flat. I also have a few parts to include to help in case of leaks, or busted lines...I am including the extra tubing and cutter as well. I spent the extra money to get the all metal swivel fittings to prevent a weak point in the air system. When I installed the air ride system, I went ahead and bought a stereo amp install kit with heavy guage cable, underhood fuse mount, and 2 distribution blocks, one for power and one to run the grounds...I started working and never had time to detail out the trunk, but left plenty of slack in the wiring and air lines to allow the components to be mounted whever I chose...or you choose... Now, I have no time to spend working on it and need to move it along to someone that will take care of it...The tires are new (less than 200 miles)and the miles are right and correct, but will change as this is my daily driver, and I had been driving it 400 miles per week over the summer so it is reliable... Since the factory suspension is no longer on the car, the check suspension light is on, I have the resistors for the front, and will include those with the car, and I have not found the resistors for the rear to turn the light off.. and like I mentioned in the info section above, the car has been modified and will ride and drive different than a factory car with factory suspension...the following link will take you to the videos, just click on my user name and look over the other eldorado videos...be sure to read their descriptions for more info as well...and No paypal please on this car...And I will wait until the check clears before shipping/delivering...which you need to set up on your own, but I can drive it to meet somewhere no too far away... I am located in Beckley WV, which is about an hour south of Charleston WV and an hour north of Bluefield VA/WV but often return back home to Pikeville KY so meeting or dropping off the car in this area could be arranged just message me with any questions... Go to the following sites to see details on the control setup that I am running, thee-level controlled over wifi by the i-level, which uses an app downloaded on an ipod, ipad, iphone or other devices... and allows adjustment of the suspension even while driving, but dont adjust it while driving, could be dangerous...or illegal... and it even has an auto level feature, to maintain ride height with a load in the trunk or more people in the car...or you can just use the rocker switch mounted inside..to choose one of the preset heights... if not familiar with it...read up on it in the following links as they can explain it better than I can... also you can download the i-level app to see what it looks like..it is free.. Here is a link to the site where I bought everything, so check the prices to see what a deal this is!!!! The items I bought are listed below...and this does not include everything it took to install the suspension, that involved a lot of time,elbow grease and calculating to make sure my ride height would be level and be drive-able without destroying the undercarriage... I set it up so that if a catastophic event occured within the system, even with all the air out of the bags, I would still be able to drive it to a safe place..maybe drive slow, but be able to drive it... and the videos show my setup running at 175 psi...I can bump it up to 200 psi for faster airing up, but I figure the life of the compressor would be a lot longer with a lower pressure...so I left it there...

First-edition Detroit muscle raises millions for charity at Barrett-Jackson
Mon, Jan 19 2015Amidst all the classic metal crossing the auction block each year in Scottsdale, AZ, Detroit automakers have a tradition of donating the first examples of their most enticing new muscle cars, with the proceeds of their sales going towards worthwhile charities. This year, Barrett-Jackson handled three noteworthy examples. The highest price among them was the first Ford Shelby GT350R Mustang with the VIN #001, which raised $1 million for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. General Motors donated the first new Chevy Corvette Z06 Convertible, the first retail example of the droptop supercar garnering $800,000 for the United Way. Along with the Z06, GM also donated the first new 2016 Cadillac CTS-V sedan, which brought in $170,000 for Detroit's College for Creative Studies. Although these were the headline Motown muscle machines furnished by the automakers themselves, they weren't the only vehicles auctioned off for worthy causes. A 1950 GM Futurliner bus donated by collector Ron Pratte led the charge when it brought in $4.65 million for the Armed Forces Foundation. Other lots included a custom Jeep Wrangler donated by SEMA ($85k), a new M5 donated by BMW ($800k), a '79 Oldsmobile Cutlass Hurst ($140k), '39 Cadillac LaSalle C-Hawk ($410k), Jeff Gordon's 1999 NASCAR-spec Chevy Monte Carlo ($500k) and a Victory Cross Country 8-Ball motorcycle ($180k). All told, the charity lots raised over $8.7 million for local and national charities.

Weekly Recap: Car-pedestrian crashes remained elevated in 2014
Sat, Feb 28 2015The 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.
2014 Cadillac CTS Vsport [w/video]
Mon, 16 Sep 2013Bridging The Gap With Power And Poise
As you read these words, West Coast Editor Michael Harley is preparing to drive the brand-new 2014 Cadillac CTS along the gorgeous, sun-drenched roads of Southern California. And while I'll wait for Harley's full report before I put words in his mouth, I'm willing to bet he enjoys the hell out of Cadillac's new CTS. In fact, I'm sure of it.
I say this with confidence because, about a month ago, I spent the better part of a day flogging the new CTS Vsport around the 2.9-mile Milford Road Course - a challenging circuit laid out in the infield of an oval test track at GM's proving grounds in southeast Michigan. The MRC was built about a decade ago after Bob Lutz was lured out of retirement to work closely with GM's product development team, and thus, this circuit is known informally as the "Lutz Ring." The main objective of the MRC was to have an in-house facility for engineers to fine-tune vehicle dynamics, without having to constantly schlep cars over to Germany's infamous Nürburgring. (Of course, they still do.)
