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.

Cadillac goes white-out on social media as prelude to Oscars announcement [w/video]

Fri, Feb 13 2015

Cadillac appears to be in a very odd place at the moment. On one hand, Johan De Nysschen is pushing the company towards a much more luxurious image that includes converting 700 dealers into boutiques, and a blitz of new products is also supposed to be on the way in the coming years. However, at the moment sales aren't necessarily keeping pace with production, and there are reportedly heavy incentives available on some models. Now, we're seeing the earliest hint at the next strike in the brand's strategy as its social media presence goes white across the web. Go check out Cadillac's official pages on the major social media hubs, and all you can find is blank space. There's just a period on Twitter, a blank box on Facebook, another one on Instagram and the company logo is even gone from Pinterest. Perhaps most bizarre is YouTube, where Caddy is showing five minutes of absolutely nothing (embedded below) with no sound at all. The video description is only a period. All of this nothingness is supposed to be a lead-up to Cadillac unveiling a completely new advertising campaign during the Oscars on February 22. This method of blanking everything out beforehand could suggest a minimal, to-the-point message in the future. While it wouldn't be shocking for a few teasers to come out in the meantime, Caddy is keeping quite a secret before the big reveal.

Next, they move on to what they've been driving. Spoiler alert: That means more V8 talk. Zac has been driving the Cadillac Escalade with the 6.2-liter V8 and BMW M550i with its 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8. Greg and Zac take a pause from the V8 theme by discussing their shared time in our long-term Acura TLX. From this, they segue into a "Spend My Money" feature about garage lifts to finish the show.
