76,000 Miles, Triple White, Good Original Condition, With Extras Included on 2040-cars
Manchester Township, New Jersey, United States
|
Up for auction is my 1976 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible, in
Cotillion White with white interior and white convertible top. It has been garage
kept since I purchased it in 2008, driven sparingly in season and never driven
during winter. All original mileage (76,000+) and factory-installed standard
equipment; I believe the paint to be 1x repainted in factory original Cotillion
White with red pinstripes.
The car has been driven sparingly with care, and has a clean
title/history. It has not been recently detailed and has been mostly sitting in
a garage. Please contact seller if you would like to exchange phone numbers or
see additional pictures – I will try to post more during the week. The car can
be seen in Manchester Township, NJ if you are in the area.
Read on for detailed specifications and terms of sale, payment
and shipping. Thank you for looking.
The exterior of the car I believe to have been redone in its
original cotillion white. When I purchased the car in 2008, I also acquired a
full set of replacement body fillers and painted them to match the factory
Cadillac color. I only got around to installing the front right fender filler,
which had the most immediate need. The rest can be seen in the photos of
additional parts that will be included with purchase. The paint on this car has
some sun fade but overall looks good. There is a noticeable scratch on the
driver’s side rear quarter panel. This car has never sustained any collision
damage and has one small area of rust repair beneath the passenger door. I
never even noticed it myself until the car was up on a lift. The white
convertible top is worn and could use replacing. It was like this when I
purchased the car. I originally intended to do some work to it make it show
quality, but time and money (or lack thereof) got in the way and it stayed the
good looking casual driver it is today. With the work that I never
accomplished, she would be a gem. The car is complete with all of its stainless
and chrome trim except for the hood ornament, which someone helped themselves
to while I was out in it one night. The car sits on older but decent tread
tires and red painted era-correct hubcaps that match the dash, carpet and
parade boot (a nice touch). You’ll see in the pictures I have a brand new set
of chrome plated hubcaps that I am including with purchase. The interior is white leather. The driver’s side seat shows wear
and the vinyl armrest on the driver’s door is torn. The rest of the seats and
doors are quite clean; the back seat is immaculate. The dash is good for it’s
age with some dirt and fading and two small stress cracks to the driver side
upper dash that are very small. Full working power on all four windows and
seats are dual 6-way power. The power to the top does not work. It was in that
condition when I bought it and I don’t know what the cause is. It could be the
top motor or as simple as a relay. I have been raising and lowering the top
manually, but not often as I really don’t ever drive the car unless it is top
down weather. The red parade boot can be seen in the photos and is included. The
driver’s side view mirror glass is a bit loose inside the casing, and there is
a crack in the windshield. Heater/blower works but is noisy at times and A/C does not blow
cold. It has the original Cadillac AM/FM 8 track radio, though it does not play
8 tracks. Power steering, tilt and telescopic steering wheel, front and rear
seat belts, full size spare and jack in the trunk. Carpet is faded and worn in
spots, but better than average for an almost 40 year old car. The original 8.2L 500 CID engine starts and runs every time but
could use a going through and probably a tune up. It does have a newly
installed water pump. It also has a complete new exhaust and runs very quiet.
The suspension is sitting a little low in the rear and could probably stand to
be replaced. The transmission shifts nicely through all gears and the brakes
work well with a recently replaced power brake booster.

Recharge Wrap-up: Free chargers for Canadian ELR buyers, Renovo gets funding for EV supercar
Thu, Sep 18 2014Chevrolet offers versions of its Express passenger van with B20 biodiesel and E85 capability. Customers can buy the van with the Duramax turbodiesel V8, which is compatible with the 20-percent biodiesel blend. There is also a FlexFuel V8, which can use the 85-percent ethanol gasoline blend. It's a great option for shuttling the whole soccer team to practice using renewable fuels. Read more at Domestic Fuels. Early buyers of the Cadillac ELR in Canada will get a 240-volt charger installed at their home for free. It should help convince some buyers to adopt the range extended luxury EV. Cadillac's Chief Marketing Officer Uwe Ellinghaus says, "Professional installation of the fastest home-charging unit is a natural way to mark the introduction of ELR to the luxury market." Read more in the press release below. Renovo has received venture capital funding from California-based True Ventures to build its Coupe electric supercar. The impressive EV, with its 500 horsepower and 1,000 pound-feet of torque, is an inspiring vehicle built by a promising company, according to its financial backers. Toni Schneider of True Ventures says that Renovo has "created incredibly advanced technology and a beautiful machine that is well positioned to disrupt the automotive market." Read more in the press release below. Renault says it will build its Fluence ZE electric car in China for an unnamed brand, pending government approval. Chief Executive Carlos Ghosn announced the plan at a test drive event in France on Monday. Renault has a partnership with Dongfeng Motors to build and sell its cars in China. Read more at Reuters. Germany has lifted its ban on Uber. While the German court believes the ride-hailing service is operating illegally without proper licensing for drivers, it says Taxi Deutschland waited too long to file the case against Uber. The taxi association plans to appeal the decision soon. See more in the video below, and read more at The New York Times. A new report from UC Davis claims that a global expansion of public transit could save 1,700 megatons of carbon dioxide yearly and over $100 trillion by 2050. A "high-shift scenario" would be necessary, wherein governments invest in rail and clean buses, expand biking and walking infrastructure and shift focus away from projects that encourage car use. This shift to public transit would especially be important in the US, China and India. Read more in the press release below.
Cadillac Celestiq, Lyriq, Hummer, other future GM electric cars: Here's everything we saw at ‘EV Day’
Wed, Mar 4 2020WARREN, Mich. — Today, General Motors held an “EV Day” event at its Warren, Michigan, campus to present its new “Ultium” battery technology, modular electric vehicle architecture and soon-to-come electric vehicles. Unfortunately, we were forbidden from bringing cameras into the event, so while we canÂ’t show you what we saw, we can tell you more about it. While we saw the previously teased Cadillac EV (which we now know to be called the Lyriq) and the GMC Hummer pickup teased during the Super Bowl, there were a number of other future cars at the event, which GM President Mark Reuss assured us are all real vehicles in the works. The biggest surprise came at the end of the event, though, in the Cadillac Celestiq electric sedan, which Reuss described as a future flagship that would be hand-built “very locally.” It had been hiding under a dark sheet all morning, with the front and rear illuminated Cadillac emblems shining from underneath. When the wraps came off, we saw a long, white, four-seat fastback sedan. The 23-inch wheels were pushed out to the very corners of the car, giving it what appeared to be a very long wheelbase. The model on the stage had no side mirrors or visible door handles. The grille mirrored that of the Lyriq crossover next to it, with integrated lighting in lieu of the usual mesh or slats youÂ’d see in an internal combustion car. The entire roof, all the way until it tapered to the tail of the vehicle, was tinted glass. In back, vertical tail lighting ran down the C-pillar before turning rearward across the top of the trunk. Inside, everything below the beltline of the windows — essentially all but the headrests and top portion of the steering wheel, was hidden from view. Behind the Celestiq, a large digital display showed a rendering of its interior. The dash consists of a pillar-to-pillar curved LED display serving as both instrument panel and infotainment system. Protruding forward between the front seats was another touchscreen that appeared to house some more controls, with open area, probably for storage, below it. The rear seats had the same sort of touchscreen between them. Built into the back of the front seats were a pair of rear-seat entertainment screens, much like we saw in the Lyriq. The door panels blended wood, metal and animated lighting to give character and a sense of opulence. GM interior design manager Tristan Murphy was on hand to tell us a bit more about the Celestiq.
Cadillac partners with Saks Fifth Avenue for limited-edition ELR
Fri, 08 Nov 2013There's no softening the blow with this one - this is the limited edition 2014 Cadillac ELR Saks Fifth Avenue Edition, and it costs $89,500, including $995 for destination. The special model, limited to just 100 units, is part of a holiday season collaboration between Cadillac and luxury retailer Saks Fifth Avenue. In addition to the ELR, there will also be a special "Frozen Escalade" window display at the Saks Fifth Avenue flagship store near Rockefeller Center in New York City, which will feature the 2015 Escalade with functioning LED running lamps that, as the automaker says, "appear embedded and breaking through a wall of ice."
But back to that ELR. This Saks edition plug-in hybrid coupe commands a surcharge of $14,500 over the $75,000 base model that over 85-percent of Autoblog readers polled already feel is overpriced. For that extra coin, you get an ELR wearing exclusive (to this car) White Diamond paint matched with either a jet black or light cashmere interior. Buyers will also receive an upgraded 240-volt charging station complete with professional installation, and the cars come with Cadillac's ELR Concierge service - representatives "trained in white-glove customer care" that serve as an additional point of contact beyond the dealership when it comes to topics like like battery care, charging, service scheduling and news updates.
Folks who order the Saks Fifth Avenue ELR are expected to receive their cars in March of next year. Price aside, we're sure it'll look great parked alongside the Neiman Marcus Aston Martin Vanquish Volante in owners' garages. Scroll down for Cadillac's official press blast.
