No Reserve - Nice Caddy Eldorado Convertible, 65k Orig, Not 1975 1976 1984 1982 on 2040-cars
Putnam Valley, New York, United States
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. |

Weekly Recap: Auto execs face life in prison for recall delays under proposed legislation
Sat, 09 Aug 2014
The stiff punishments are part of broader transportation legislation, but clearly McCaskill has automakers in her sights.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill threw down the gauntlet this week, proposing a bill that could send auto executives to prison for life if they were found to have delayed a recall. She also wants to eliminate the limit for fines for auto safety violations, which are currently capped at $35 million.
May 2016: FCA wins, Ford and GM stumble on weak car volumes
Wed, Jun 1 2016The May 2016 sales numbers are in, and it looks as though FCA is getting some vindication for boldly cancelling two slow-selling car models. Meanwhile, Ford saw overall sales dip and GM's May volume took a big dive versus the same month in 2015. While Marchionne's decision to axe the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Dart has drawn criticism as being short-sighted, it's working for FCA so far. Although the Dart and 200 aren't out of production yet and no capacity has been shifted to crossover or trucks, May's numbers show that the emphasis on Jeep and Ram models makes sense right now. FCA's US sales rose 1 percent last month compared to May 2015, putting the year-to-date total at 955,186 vehicles, an increase of 6 percent compared to the same period last year. Standouts included the Jeep Renegade, Compass, and Patriot, and the Fiat 500X. Ram pickup sales were down 3 percent. And your fun fact is that Alfa Romeo sales were up precisely 10 percent, for a total of 44 4Cs sold versus 40 in the same month last year. At FoMoCo, the Ford brand took a hit to the tune of 6.4 percent from May 2015 to 2016, registering 226,190 sales last month. Lincoln showed improvement on its modest numbers, going from 9,174 to 9,807, a 6.9 percent increase. Overall, Ford was down 5.9 percent for the month to 235,997; despite the slump, year-to-date total Ford sales are up 4.2 percent to 1,112,939. Strong sellers included Escape, Expedition, F-Series, and Transit - big stuff. Most small and/or efficient models (Fiesta, Focus, Fusion, C-Max) saw sales slides. Fusion sales were also down, likely due to effects of model changeover to the freshened 2017 model. Ford has promised four new crossovers and SUVs by 2020 and if things keep trending this way the company will be able to sell them, but things could change in the next four years. GM saw the worst of it for domestic brands. Retail and fleet sales were down for each of the four divisions, with the May 2016 total dropping 18 percent to 240,450 vehicles. GM's year-to-date sales are down 5.0 percent in 2016 to 1,183,705. Both the Sierra and Silverado were down significantly, and the majority of Chevy, Buick, GMC, and Cadillac nameplates saw sales decreases, with both small cars and larger utilities included. Not even big stuff could help GM this month, it seems. We'll have more on the rest of the industry's May sales as those figures trickle in.
GM moving international sales HQ to Singapore from Shanghai
Wed, 13 Nov 2013General Motors has announced that it will be moving its international headquarters from Shanghai to Singapore, a move that will see 120 employees working from the city-state by the time business opens in 2014. Meanwhile, 250 to 300 of the employees at the Shanghai office will remain in China, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal.
The shuffle is part of a bigger reorganization that will see GM isolate its operations in the People's Republic from its broader international efforts. This sort of divide-and-conquer strategy will allow GM to still react to emerging markets while, according to the WSJ, providing a dedicated management team for the Chinese market. The team in Singapore will be responsible for operations in Africa, southeast Asia, Australia, India, South Korea and the Middle East, on top of managing Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe, according to a statement from GM.
The shift to Singapore "will help us to create a renewed identity for CIO (Consolidated International Operations) and lead GM's umbrella strategy for the region," said GM Executive Vice President of CIO, Stefan Jacoby.
