Classic 1997 Cadillac Eldorado Etc Touring Coupe 2-door Emaculate/pristine on 2040-cars
Mesa, Arizona, United States

Have you noticed that most of the cars listed here
on ebay are from the Rust Bucket States like New Jersey, New York, Illinois and
yes, even Pennsylvania? Talk to any mechanic, and they will tell you that the
bolts break off the end of almost every single connection on the car. Little bubbles appear in the paint job at
most of the wheel wells and the floor boards feel springy when you get in. My Mechanic will not even do an oil change on
an “Eastern Sea Board” car as they seem to bend once you get them on a rack and
something always goes wrong with the car even on minor maintenance. Yes, some car’s are advertised as being kept
in a heated garage but unless you do a complete undercarriage car wash after every
time you drive it, well, you get the picture.
People flock to Florida for the “little Old Lady” syndrome for low
mileage and excellent care of the car. Don’t
kid yourself; you have no idea of the
damage living near the Salt Water of Florida does to a car. Out in Arizona, we have every major Airline in the
world parking their 747’s in storage as a plane stored In Arizona is like
having a time capsule. Even the United States
Government parked their World War II planes at Davis Monthan Air Force Base in
Tucson. Even the DEA parks their
confiscated planes there as they may sit there for years before trial. We also have Sun City, the original housing
development created by Del Webb for retirement folks over age 65. Arizona is probably the only place in the
Nation that you can truly find a “clean” used car. We have an auction out here called Barrett-Jackson Classic Car
Auction where you can find million dollar cars.
Only a true connoisseur of fine
automobiles are even going to know the name of Barret-Jackson, but real
collectors do. Don’t
make a mistake. You can buy a car here
really cheap from one of the Rust Bucket States or you can buy a pristine car,
well kept and truly a “keeper”. My
private collection is constantly updated with classic cars that will sooner or
later end up at Barret-Jackson. Look at
a 1958 Cadillac listed at a quarter of a million dollars and you will get a
clue. The first car I ever bought new
was a 66 Corvette. Kept my used Jaguar XKE because I just had an idea that it
would go up in value. I was right. The
next new car I bought was a 1969 Mustang 428 from a garage owned by a former
race car driver called Carroll Shelby. I
did pretty well with that one also. The
Cobra from the same garage was my best hit.
Certain cars have that look and feel that will eventually put them in
the “hall of fame”. When people stop and
turn their heads to stare, you have a pretty good idea your on to the right
model. Certain cars have what is called
curb appeal and those cars are the first ones that sell on a lot as opposed to
the plane Jane’s that sit on the rear of the lot and never get any
attention. Did you ever wonder why Cops
write twice as many speeding tickets to “red” cars as they do “Black”
cars? It’s not because they speed twice
as often, it’s because a red car will even make a cop turn his head to
look. Unlike
most people here on ebay, I am in no big hurry to sell my cars. I always like to update my collection and ad
new and exciting cars to it. I offer a
few of my cars from time to time to increase my collection, not reduce it. I usually ad money to what ever I sell and go
out and seek a rare and collectible. If
it is from my collection, you can be assured it is low mileage, cherry and
destined for greatness. It didn’t take a Rocket Scientist to know that a 57
Chevy or a 65 Mustang was going to light up the collectors boards. It’s the sleepers that are difficult to spot
and what was very much in demand the day they were bought (think 63 Corvette
split window coupe or Gull Wing Mercedes) will end up being collectors cars
when you least expect it. OFFERED
FOR SALE: 1997 Cadillac Eldorado ETC a truly classic Touring Car. Fire Engine Red with immaculate leather interior. Just look at the other cars offered here on ebay and look closely at the cracks In their seat leather and you will soon discover what the advantage of being kept in an Air Conditioned Garage is. A/C is also a dehumidifier and that removes the moisture from the air taking away water that not only causes Rust, but also removes the dryness from real leather. Sitting down in the car is like sitting on the show room floor. This car has less than 64000 miles on it and the last ten years it has been driven less than a thousand miles per year. Yes, you heard that right. According to AutoCheck, this car was driven less than Ten Thousand miles in the last ten years and stored in an air conditioned garage for its entire life. My mechanic spent the last three days going through this car trying to find something wrong. He Couldn’t. He didn’t want to return it either as his wife fell in love with the car. Don’t miss out on this one. A real classic are far and few between and you might not see one this nice for quite a while to come. If you have ever wondered what the true meaning of the word "antique" or Classic really means, simply compare it to the day it was made. If it was truly a work of art the day it was built, it will still be a piece of art fifty years later. Build a piece of junk and no matter how old it is, it will still be junk when it arrives on the antique market. That can never be said about the classic lines or design artwork on a Cadillac Eldorado. Quality is built in, not given freely on some advertising brochure. This fine piece of History was garage kept it's entire life. It has never left the cover of it's air conditioned sealed and locked garage unless it was in use. Stored in an environmental controlled condition since the day of manufacture, this car shows it. One look at it's pristine luxury interior and you know the car was well kept, well loved and preserved for the ages. Not every car can become a classic, but this one was destined for History the day it was built. Don't miss your opportunity of owning a truly great piece of History, the Cadillac Eldorado. |

Hotter Cadillac CT4-V prototype spied testing at GM's Proving Grounds
Thu, Jun 27 2019Cadillac already teased us once with the hotter CT4-V and CT5-V at the Belle Isle Grand Prix, but these photos are still the best look yet at what's next for the Cadillac V-Series. The car we're looking at in heavy camouflage here is a high-performance CT4, but we don't really have a name to call it at this point. Cadillac hasn't said, so it could be anything. We'll just refer to it as the faster V, as it's certainly looking a bit more racy than the warmed-over CT4-V already revealed. While the styling isn't drastically different from the CT4-V already out there, the front intake and openings look deeper and more aggressive. The middle, raised section of the hood is a little taller and the whole front-end design looks a lot like the one teased in Belle Isle. This vehicle even appears to have the same mirror design as the faster V. The side sills, quad exhaust tips and wide rear tires lend this prototype an aggressive look, but we did note that it doesn't have the big ducktail spoiler we saw teased previously. Maybe Cadillac is trying to keep a low profile while testing. A keen eye will notice a wild apparatus attached to the front, which would serve as a great jousting pole if you were into that kind of thing. We don't know exactly when Cadillac plans to introduce the faster V machines, but we wouldn't doubt if it happened before the year was out. The ATS-V and CTS-V didn't look wholly different than the pedestrian versions of those cars, and this prototype indicates Caddy may follow a similar pattern this time around. All will be explained from GM soon, but for now, we wait.
Sunday Drive: Classic American nameplates and one exciting new German
Sun, Mar 25 2018Our look back at last week's biggest automotive stories focuses first on the Jeep Wagoneer, an unequivocal American classic. Not only did the Wagoneer play a pivotal role in kicking off America's current love affair with the sport utility vehicle, it legitimized the Jeep brand in the mind of consumers looking not just for something to ably take them off the beaten path, but to do so in comfort, with the entire family along for the ride. So it comes as little surprise that Jeep decided to take one vintage Wagoneer, modernize it with a 5.7-liter Hemi V8 engine, and put the thing on display as part of its annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari. We're in love. Our next two stories focus on Cadillac. First up is news that the striking Escala Concept is headed for production in 2021 to serve as the brand's flagship luxury sedan. The second story involves Caddy's current top rung, the CT6, which gets a new twin-turbo V8 engine as part of its V-Sport package. And finally, we round out this look at last week's headlines with the 2019 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe and Cabriolet. We're mighty keen to try out Benz's new AMG-fettered turbocharged inline-six engine, and the C Coupe looks like a fine point of entry. As always stay tuned to Autoblog this week for all the latest automotive news. Jeep delivers basketful of concepts for the Moab Easter Jeep Safari Cadillac's striking Escala concept is reportedly headed for production Cadillac CT6 V-Sport wants to take prisoners with 550-hp 4.2L TT V8 2019 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe and Cabriolet revealed ahead of New York
Why GM will import the Cadillac CT6 PHEV from China
Fri, Jan 29 2016There's a clear-cut reason that General Motors is going to build its upcoming plug-in hybrid CT6 sedan in China. Sure, the car will be sold in China and the US, but the real reason for the "Made In China" stamp is environmental. If an automaker wants to build a new model in China, adding a green powertrain is an easy way to do that. The CT6 will have both a PHEV option as well as standard gas engine versions. David Leone, Cadillac's executive chief engineer, told AutoblogGreen recently that, "[China is] far more receptive to approving localized production of vehicle programs that have new energy vehicle powertrain applications." To put it succinctly, since the CT6 has a PHEV option, it is easier for GM to build all CT6 models in China. Some of them will then be imported to the US. "Most new global Cadillacs will also be produced in China as well. It's our second-largest market in the world." "To bring any new car into China, to produce it, you need government approval," Leone said. "The government isn't interested in bringing many new cars to market that don't have new energy credits. [The CT6] also provides new energy credits that enables it to be an attractive, well-received product in China." Leone said that there are two main markets for the various CT6 models: China and the US. The car will arrive in the 2017 model year, so some time after the end of June 2016. There are other practical reasons to build the PHEV in China, like the cells in the battery pack. Those are provided by LG Chem, which makes some cells in Michigan but more in South Korea. And GM already builds cars in China through its joint venture with SAIC, Shanghai General Motors, or SGM. "In February 2013 we started making the XTS, in summer of 2014 we started making the ATS-L," Leone said. "We will be producing [the CT6] within a number of months. Most new global Cadillacs will also be produced in China as well. It's our second-largest market in the world." The Chinese and US versions of the CT6 will be identical, Leone said. While some Cadillacs sold in China are slightly different than the US versions – the Chinese ATS is 77 millimeters longer, for example – the CTS6 PHEV will be exactly the same in both places, other than slight tweaks to the trim levels. Still, "more of our cars going forward will be the exact same car," he said. That doesn't mean that sales will be the same everywhere.
