Bid is for a complete package of 1952 Golden Anniversary Cadillac limo and transport trailer, also original engine on engine stand.  

This 1952 limousine (non-divider window) is an excellent and solid vehicle to complete restoration on. Car has been dry-stored for all the years I have owned it. Actual true mileage unknown. Complete with all parts and trim, fender skirts, original drivetrain a running removal and retained. All glass good, power windows, power steering. A  running small block Chevy 350/350 Turbohydramatic has been roughed into place. Original 331 needs a rebuild, and original trans was a working but leaking take-out. Power steering box has been rebuilt by Lares Corp and reinstalled. No evidence of outer body rust through, although floor pan repair is required due to typical pan rust damage, and a small rust spot in the spare tire well. The frame is excellent. 

Chrome: front bumper is decent, rear bumper will need a rechrome. A complete extra front grill assembly is included to combine with the original and make a complete grill assembly without requiring new chrome. Lower rocker panel stainless trim on each front fender will need to be straightened. 

Interior: seats and door panels in good condition, headliner good except for 1 small tear. New carpet kit required.

Body: no outer-body rust. There is damage on the lower front fenders from transport years ago; dent needs to be pulled out and trim straightened on each front fender quarter. Otherwise the body is straight and dent free. All doors open/close with no sagging, and alignment is excellent.

Brakes and wheel bearings inspected and serviced. Brake master cylinder and brake system needs to be bleed. Tires are good. 

Car has clear Florida title.

Included as a complete package with this car is an oversized 2004 Challenger car trailer with a 20-foot diamond plate steel deck. This 7000lb dual-axle trailer has pull-out ramps, tires replaced 2 1/2years ago with only 1000 miles on them, and wheel bearings were serviced at that time. Electric winch that pulls this heavy car on/off the trailer. Front tire straps. Trailer is in overall good condition and was last used 2 years ago on a 1000 mile trip. Occasional towed to keep the bearings limber. Clear Florida title. 
This Cadillac limo will not fit on a standard size auto trailer.

The car will be loaded on the trailer and ready for transport with cash or your certified bank check cleared.  This is a heavy load; I use a F350 to pull it.

Selling due to relocation and other time requirements. 

Feel free to ask questions.......

Combine a self-driving car with V2V, and here's what happens

Sat, Dec 12 2015

Transportation engineers have started laying the groundwork for a traffic world in which cars communicate with other cars and infrastructure like bridges and traffic lights. How about an environment in which cars talk to pretty much everything and everyone? In a preview of its offerings at the upcoming Consumer Electronics Show, Delphi Automotive will deploy just such a concept. Engineers have designed a system that communicates with traffic signals, street signs, pedestrians, cyclists, even to fry pits and parking garages along a driver's route. To date, engineers and researchers across the auto industry have focused on the technical and safety-oriented foundation of future vehicle-to-vehicle communications, which could help cars share information about everything from traffic tie-ups to upcoming road hazards. Beyond those building blocks, many have projected that V2V could also include more consumer-focused features. Delphi's system, dubbed V2Everything, might be the first that combines those sorts of features in a tangible package. At CES in Las Vegas, scheduled to begin the first week of January, company officials say they'll demonstrate in real-world conditions how V2V technology can be used in an autonomous vehicle to provide a range of critical safety information and leisure and convenience options for riders. The first V2V technology installed on a production car is slated to appear on the 2017 Cadillac CTS. "We imagine a world with zero traffic accidents," said Jeff Owens, Delphi's chief technology officer. "To get there, we will need a convergence of active safety, sensor fusion, connectivity platforms and advanced software." Such software might allow a vehicle to start searching for and reserving parking spots at a programmed destination long before arriving. It could allow riders to place their McDonald's drive-through order from the road and have the food ready for pickup along the route. For the drive itself, the Delphi-equipped car can stay updated on the status of traffic lights around Las Vegas, and can anticipate yellow and red lights. Using smart-phone technology, the car can detect pedestrians and cyclists that may otherwise be hard to see. It can send messages to friends or family to notify them of a driver's location. Some of those features have been available on third-party apps or individually developed by automakers. But this system marries them together in a single system that is tailored for use in self-driving cars.

C7 Corvette won't spawn new Cadillac XLR [w/video]

Fri, 23 Aug 2013

Between the new 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray and the even newer Cadillac Elmiraj Concept shown off at Pebble Beach, we were already expecting some sort of chatter of a Cadillac XLR redux. During an in-depth C7 Corvette discussion with Tadge Juechter, the car's chief engineer, Fox News asked if a Corvette-based, Bowling Green-built Cadillac will be built off the C7. Non-spoiler alert: the answer is no.
Juechter says that General Motors has "no intent" on transforming this car into a Cadillac product since the C7 has been optimized for the Corvette buyer, a consumer that's generally a different sort of person than a Cadillac intender who might also be cross-shopping a Mercedes-Benz SL-Class or BMW 6 Series.
While we're not ready to write off a future XLR altogether, we assume that the Corvette Cadillac experiment is most likely never going to happen again. The interview with Juechter is posted below, but the XLR discussion comes in at the 9:00 mark.

Cadillac CTS-V spotted with big exhaust, new grille?

Thu, 20 Feb 2014

If you thought Cadillac was content to leave its twin-turbocharged Vsport as the range-topping CTS, think again. Behold, our first good glimpse at the next-generation Cadillac CTS-V sedan, sporting more aggressive styling (somewhere under there), meaty quad-exhaust pipes, and what very well could be a new face for the V-badged Caddies.
Creating an all-new grille design seems like an awful lot of work just for a prototype, so it's very possible that the vertical-bar treatment you see here could make its way into production. Our spy photographers have pointed out that they've seen this same sort of grille treatment on prototypes for the smaller ATS-V sedan, and we've heard V-series models may soon have greater differentiation from the standard vehicles that sired them - that seems especially necessary if Cadillac insists on expanding this whole Vsport range.
Regardless of how its front end looks, the CTS-V ought to be a real monster. Industry sources say we can expect to see a supercharged version of General Motors' 6.2-liter V8 under the Caddy's hood, and considering the current car already makes 556 horsepower and 551 pound-feet of torque, we wouldn't be surprised to see a decent increase in both of those numbers. After all, one of the CTS-V's main competitors, the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG, is currently putting out 550 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque. Could this mean a 600-hp Cadillac is on the horizon?
