Here is a great opportunity to own an American classic! This is a 1967 Cadillac Eldorado Hardtop. First year for this new and highly acclaimed model design. Just rebuilt engine with less than 100 miles on it. Have all receipts for parts and machine work (over 2K). Block was machined, new maximum torque specialities cam, valve job done, master rebuild kit installed, new oil pump, new fuel pump and fuel lines from gas tank to engine, gas tank dropped and cleaned, new fuel sending unit installed, fuel gauge does not work though, new temperature sensor, new vacumn hoses, radiator removed, hot tanked, roded and resoldered and pressure checked, new radiator cap, new overflow, new passanger side power window motor, new battery, new carpet, exhaust repaired and new seals/gaskets installed, two new tires installed in front. Since the engine has been replaced, I entered 0000 as the mileage in this listing. If you want to know the mileage on the odometer (which is not the miles on the engine) let me know
Front end has been aligned. Transmission serviced and filter replaced.
Included with the car are the following new items that have not been installed:
weatherstrip - new rear quarter window seals, roof rails, door seals
I have other parts and will add an addendum later this week. However, there is a spare instrument cluster, compressor tank for the air cushion ride and A/C compressor. Also, I have a 1 pound can of R12 and the a/c tools to recharge that are included. I have not tried to test the cruise control.
The chrome on the car is very very nice original condition. The body is very straight, there are some small old repairs on the roof side panels of some sort and the roof was repainted to protect from elements as the old vinyl roof appears to have been removed a long time ago. Glass seems to be good. two small scratches on a side window. No chips seen. The body appears to be in very good overall condition, there is however some surface rust in the trunk. Photos will be posted to show it. The floor pans also had rust at some point and the previous owner put in new heavy duty custom floor pans.
The car has the original jack, full size spare, mag style hubcaps (factory) factory strato seats. Also the shop manual, body manual and Cadillac Eldorado collector car book are included too. I will be posting some more pictures this weekend. There is the original 8 track tape unit too..
I have driven the car the 100 miles consisting of short trips. It drove good. But as I have had this car in my garage for about 4 years, I would not recommend driving it a long distance without getting the rear tires replaced. You will notice that the engine is 472 cid vs the 425 cid . The 472 block is much better with many improved designs for water flow in the engine, reduction of vibration from a/c and other improvements. The block was a 1968 Cadillac Eldorado block. The car will need a new paint job.

Chrysler, Nissan looking into claim that their cars are industry's most hackable
Sun, 10 Aug 2014A pair of cyber security experts have awarded the ignominious title of most hackable vehicles on American roads to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, 2014 Infiniti Q50 and 2015 Cadillac Escalade.
Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek are set to release a report at the Black Hat hacking conference in Las Vegas, Automotive News reports. The two men found the Jeep, Caddy and Q50 were easiest to hack based not on actual tests with the vehicles, but a detailed analysis of systems like Bluetooth and wireless internet access - basically, anything that'd allow a hacker to remotely gain access to the vehicle's systems.
Considering this lack of hands-on testing, the pair acknowledge that "most hackable" could be a relative term - they point out that the vehicles may actually be quite secure.
Autoblog's ultimate holiday rides
Tue, Dec 16 2014Over the hills and through the woods, it's the time of year when many of us visit family and friends for the holidays. But getting there can be a chore. It's cold and snowy across much of the United States, and even if the climate is favorable, the drive to grandmother's house often is not. Think back to holiday road trips of yore: They probably included crying babies, antsy children, hungover adults and frequent bathrooms stops all around. Now, we're all at different life stages here at Autoblog, and the perfect car for one staffer might be as useful as a team of Budweiser Clydesdales to another. Some of us bounce from family event to family event with children and a labrador in tow, while others prefer a quieter, simpler holiday. But whatever the endeavor, we all need wheels. With that in mind, here is the unofficial Autoblog list of the ultimate cars in which to tackle the holiday season. 2015 Ferrari FF To borrow a chestnut from Top Gear presenter James May, "As you'd expect, I've done this properly." That oddly voluptuous ruby bolide in the photo above? It's a 2015 Ferrari FF – all 652 all-wheel-driven horsepower of it. What makes a Ferrari the ideal for holiday time in PaukertLand? My Midwestern winter breaks are wonderful, but they're typically frenetic and slushy, involving a lot of schlepping from house to house and even city to city, not to mention inevitable last-minute runs for forgotten presents and dinner ingredients. Needless to say, a powerful V12 is a welcome ally for such duties. And this one isn't just a friend when the road is clear. The FF has been gifted Ferrari's novel 4RM AWD system, and despite sitting lower to the ground than, say, an SUV, it's a pretty effective tool for real winter driving, especially when outfitted with a set of snow tires. Unlike other Ferraris, it's also a rather practical thing, with legitimate seating for four adults and 15.9 cubic feet of cargo space – that's precisely as much room as a Mercedes E-Class – and you can fold the rear chairs and cram 28.2 cubes-worth of holiday cheer in the back. Okay, so it's far from cheap and fuel economy isn't that great, but who cares? Just drop a paddle-shifted gear or two, bury the throttle and Repeat The Sounding Joy. Ain't the holidays grand? – Chris Paukert Executive Editor 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe My Mom gives out more presents than any other human being I've ever encountered.
Cadillac ATS was almost front-wheel drive
Wed, 03 Apr 2013"We were going to do a front-wheel drive Cadillac compact off of Delta because it was going to be less expensive," Doug Parks, General Motors' vice president of global product programs, told the Automotive News during the Detroit Auto Show in January of this year. That sentence, referring to early ATS discussions more than five years ago - a period when the automaker, and the industry, was struggling - reveals that Cadillac's highly acclaimed rear-wheel drive compact sedan almost never happened.
Parks revealed that that automaker actually built a 2.0-liter test mule, on GM's Delta platform (shared with the Chevrolet Cruze and Buick Verano) and tested it in Europe. While the prototype was "pretty darn good," according to Parks, the team realized that in order to compete against Mercedes-Benz and BMW it would have to invest in a new rear-wheel drive platform.
The resulting all-new Alpha platform would eventually underpin the Cadillac ATS, and many would argue that its balanced rear-wheel drive chassis is its single most important attribute. Thankfully, the Alpha's goodness won't stop with the ATS. The upcoming 2014 Cadillac CTS and the future Camaro will also share its architecture, meaning the Cimarron will remain a distant memory.
