I'm selling my beautiful classic 1941 Cadillac Fleetwood 60 Special. I acquired this prewar survivor about 5 years ago out of a barn where it was stored most of its life. I consider this car in driver condition. It was repainted in the 60's and does have chips, thin spots in the paint and dings expected with a car of this age. The car has not been restored although I did have the original 348 flathead engine totally machined and sleeved back to the original bore and specs including hardened valves and seats to operate on todays gasoline's. The 348 ci engine (also used in tanks during the war) is backed by the first year Cadillac offered as an option, automatic transmission which is quite rare.

1941 Cadillac Fleetwood 60 Special, this is the Bill Mitchell designed car. Complete rebuild on the 346 ci engine, resleeved to original bore, all new internal parts. New white wall radial tires with under 100 miles look good with the original restored hubcaps. Engine, frame and body numbers all match. Factory equipped optional automatic trans., heater works nice, most everything works except the radio although it does power on. I just didn't have time to repair it. Drives down the road nice, starts and runs nice. It looks to have been repainted and new interior installed in the 1960s. The body tag shows the paint to be a two tone grey from the factory. I acquired it right out of storage where it was stored in 1971, I have pictures as it was removed. This is one of the last of the prewar cars in good solid survivor shape. The chrome is not show quality as it has pitting, but everything there to work with if you should decide to restore it. I enjoy driving it in this "driver" condition. I'm amazed by the public's looks and thumbs up's on every drive. Also be prepared to make time for those who want pictures with it also. You'll see.

Serious bidders can ask for specific pictures of interest if you provide me an email to send them to. Please ask any questions you have before bidding.

Good luck

Dennis

South Dakota dealer filled to brim with classic cars

Wed, 12 Mar 2014

Other than the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and Mount Rushmore, South Dakota isn't generally a hot topic, but that just means that cool stuff can hide in the open waiting to be discovered. Case in point: the classic car dealer Frankman Motor Company that operates three locations in Sioux Falls, SD.
Unearthed by the folks at Bring a Trailer, Frankman is a treasure trove of vintage, American iron. Their collection is full of the type of vehicles your irresponsible but cool uncle would show up with when you were a kid. Even better, these cars are priced at a level a working man can afford.
If you are lusting about a cruiser then Frankman has a 1956 Cadillac Deville Hard Top Sedan (pictured right) with 82,896 miles for $12,975. It's painted a color called Cascade Grey, but looks more like a pastel purple in pictures. While it needs some repairs to the accessories, the Caddy runs and drives, which is all you really need.

2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe prepares to fight BMW 4 Series

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

Cadillac introduced its new ATS Coupe at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show today, bringing customers an alternative to the growing range of sport luxury coupes typified by the BMW 4 Series, Audi A5 and Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe.
The ATS Coupe, as a slightly more premium offering, ditches the wheezy 2.5-liter engine found in the basic ATS Sedan, but retains the four-door's 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder and 3.6-liter V6. That four-pot turbo benefits from a fettling that has increased torque from 260 pound-feet to 295, although its peak is only available from 3,000 rpm to 4,600 rpm, unlike in the sedan, where peak twist arrives at just 1,700 rpm and sticks around until 5,500 rpm.
Power can be channeled to either the rear or all four wheels by the owner's choice of a Tremec six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission. According to Cadillac, the new Coupe can get to 60 in 5.6 seconds when fitted with the 2.0-liter turbo.

Cadillac cancels sponsorship of Trump's PGA event

Thu, Jun 2 2016

Cadillac has ended its sponsorship of the PGA's World Golf Championship, which has incited a response from Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee. Without the automaker's money to run the event at a property owned by Trump in Miami, the PGA announced it will move the WGC to Mexico City. Trump responded by saying, "Cadillac's been a great sponsor, but they're moving it to Mexico. They're moving it to Mexico City which, by the way, I hope they have kidnapping insurance. They're moving it to Mexico City. And I'm saying, you know, what's going on here? It is so sad when you look at what's going on with our country." In 2010, the PGA announced a multi-year deal with Cadillac to sponsor the WGC, starting in 2011. Since 2007, the event has been held at what is now known as the Trump National Doral Miami location. Trump took ownership of the property in 2012. Cadillac issued a statement to Autoblog that says: "We are proud to have been the title sponsor of the World Golf Championships-Cadillac Championship since 2011. We have made the decision, however, not to extend our sponsorship beyond this year. We thank the PGA TOUR for a great six years with the Cadillac Championship."
