Nice, Low Mileage, Fully Loaded 1983 Cadillac Eldorado Convetible up for auction with NO RESERVE

65k original miles, fuel injected 4.1 V8. Options include power convertible top with boot cover, "Touring Suspension", split bench power seat with pillowtop leather seats, tilt wheel, "Sentinel" auto headlights, cruise control, digital "Symphonic" AM/FM cassette radio,  dual mirrors, remote trunk release with power pulldown, locking wire wheels and the standard power windows, power steering and power disc brakes. 

Mechanical: The Caddy has always been well maintained. Recent work over the last ten years includes new front end work including both front axles/cv joints, shocks, ball joints, and bushings, new exhaust, new alternator and shocks as well as brakes, full tuneup and a recent brand new set of Michelin tires. The climate control works properly and the a/c compressor turns on but only blows cool, it could use a charge of R12 if available or a retrofit to modern freon. I will include a new driver's seat motor, it just needs to be installed. Otherwise, all the amenities work, the AM/FM stereo and cassette (the digital display of the radio station numbers is intermittent), the cruise control, the power windows are quick, the power top works perfectly, the remote trunk release and power pulldown work. I've had several 80's era Eldorados and this one by far runs and handles the best, you don't even feel the engine when you're stopped at a light.

Cosmetics: The car still wears her original paint and still looks pretty good. There is a small spot of bubbling above the driver's rear wheel well, only visible up close and the rear plastic bumper fillers are beginning to crack.The door panels, rear panels dashboard / dash display, headliner and visors are in excellent condition, no cracks, tears or missing parts. The seats are in excellent condition as seen in the pix. The cushioning of the seats feels soft and comfortable. The convertible top was replaced around 2000, now the glass back window is becoming unglued from the convertible top at the bottom. The Caddy has never had any body repair, the floors and frame are solid and the chrome shines nicely. She's never been out in the winter, she's always been a "Garage Queen".

The engine starts easily even after sitting for weeks and the garage floor is always dry when I pull the car out. She cruises nicely on the highway, shifts smoothly, disc brakes stop the car quickly, she idles evenly and the suspension is silky smooth over the roughest roads. On the highway she'll get easily over 20 MPG. The directional/brake/turn signal/headlights/brights work properly, as well as the wipers and  the the external three color fender indicators (lights, brights and turn signal). Drives overall like it would have when driven off the dealer's lot in 1983.

I reserve the right to end the auction early as the Caddy is for sale  locally and I'm open to reasonable buy it now offers as well. I can assist with shipping in the USA or internationally if necessary, cost of shipping to paid by buyer. I can recommend a door to door auto shipper I've used in the past; they're  professional, reliable and have great rates. If you need to get a quote my zip code is 10579.

Classic Cadillac convertible which will only appreciate in value!

Cadillac expects major growth in China

Thu, 25 Sep 2014

The US sales issues facing Cadillac are not being paralleled in the People's Republic of China, as a new report from Automotive News indicates the US luxury maker should see its sales increase by as much as 40 percent.
The report cites Cadillac's own forecasts, which put its 2014 sales in the PRC at 70,000 units after cresting 45,000 vehicles at the end of August. Provided the sales pace holds true through 2015, the brand would hit its new 100,000-unit sales goal, AN reports.
"We're very optimistic about the luxury market, we believe that the luxury market by 2016 here will become the largest luxury market in the world, surpassing even the size of luxury in Europe," GM China President Matthew Tsien told AN. "With [Cadillac president] Johan [de Nysschen], we have somebody that really is an executive that understands luxury, but he also is very, very keen on understanding what do we need here in China for Cadillac to be successful."

Wed, 01 Oct 2014



"Our strategic plan is a pathway to earn customers for life and create significant shareholder value in the process." - Mary Barra
General Motors laid out ambitious plans on Wednesday to become the world's "most valued automotive company," a goal it says it can reach by strengthening its business in China, rebuilding the Cadillac luxury brand and fixing the foundering GM Europe operations.
