*** THERE IS A SLIDESHOW WITH MORE DETAILED PICS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS AUCTION *** 1969 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Special 60. 4dr Sedan. Sable black with blue cloth interior. Black vinyl top. 472 V8 Automatic. A/C. Power steering, power brakes, power windows, power door locks, power seats, cruise control, even power trunk release. This car is a mixed bag. Mechanically, this car runs just fine. Starts up on the first key turn. Gas tank was cleaned out, Holley carb was rebuilt, new brake booster and new rear brake shoes. So it runs and stops just fine. It even still handles nice and smooth just like a vintage Cadillac should. Most of the issues are cosmetic and will need a body man to fix. The A/C will need some work to get running. The passenger side window does not work. And there may be various other little things that need addressing. Not really sure. The major issue is the roof. The vinyl top needs to be removed and the roof needs to be sanded down. Some of the roof will have to be welded or patched. Mainly in the top of the rear on the passenger side. There are also some rust holes above the windshield and in the rear under the vinyl top trim which leak into the trunk that will also have to be spot welded up. Once this is done, a new top can be put on and you are good to go. The body is pretty straight except for a slight ding on the drivers side fin and some scrapes in the bottom of the doors. I believe the scrapes are from where the previous owner might have drove it up on his car hauler which was too narrow for the car. I think all of these can be repaired without replacing the doors. The drivers door is the worst and I think you can remove the door panel with the window up and hammer it out and it will be fine. The trunk weatherstrip channels on this car do not have any rust. The weatherstripping will have to be replaced though. I am including new trunk weatherstripping with the car. The interior obviously will need new seat covers, carpet, and a headliner once the roof is repaired. The door panels are pretty rough as well. You can find these parts with a simple search online and on Ebay. The steering wheel will either need a new pad or need to be replaced. You can do a search on Ebay for "Grant Cadillac Wood Wheel". They make a pretty cool wooden one for it with a Cadillac center cap. I inspected the floors while this car was up on the rack and there were no holes. The trunk pan is also solid. The drop-offs were even holding water from the holes mentioned above until I dried them out so there are no holes in the rear quarters either. Both of the bumpers are almost mint. All the glass is good except for the front windshield. It has bubbled around the edges and has some wiper scrapes. I have included pics of some late 60s Cadillacs to give some build ideas for this car. It would be a pretty sweet car with some new paint or maybe done in satin, lowered, with some 20s or Coker white-walls. It just depends what you want to do and how far you want to go with it. *** The car will come with a bill of sale ONLY.

Cadillac planning more Vsport models
Wed, 28 Aug 2013There's a new intermediate class of luxury performance cars emerging. Audi has been doing it for years with its S-line bridging the gap, in many cases, between the standard fare and the full-on RS performance range. BMW's getting in on it with the M Sport line slotting in below the full M models. And now Cadillac is joining the fun with its Vsport offerings.
Models like the CTS Vsport and XTS Vsport are packing a new 3.6-liter twin-turbo V6 with 410 or more horsepower (along with bigger wheels and brakes) to slot in between the standard model and any impending V variant. Well, it appears Cadillac isn't about to stop there.
Speaking with The Detroit News, Cadillac product chief Hampden Tener revealed that, based on the response to the XTS Vsport, the brand is planning more Vsport models. He did not, however, indicate which would be the next to get the slightly sportier treatment. With the full ATS-V expected to pack a version of the same engine powering the aforementioned XTS and CTS Vsport models, an ATS Vsport would have to pack a smaller engine to fit in below. That only leaves the SRX crossover, Escalade SUV and the upcoming ELR hybrid. Food for thought.
Cadillac CT6 ushers in new naming convention
Wed, 24 Sep 2014Johan de Nysschen has been at his new post as president of Cadillac for not even three months , but he's already seen two of his most notable accomplishments from his two-year tenure as president of Infiniti matched by Cadillac. The brand has announced that it is relocating its headquarters, and is now officially changing its nomenclature.
The brand's new flagship model will abandon the familiar three-letter designation enjoyed by every other model in the range (aside from the Escalade), and adopt an alpha-numeric title. So, rather than the expected title of LTS, Cadillac's top-end car will be called the CT6.
Of course, this won't be limited to just one model. According to Cadillac's press release, "familiar lettering like 'CT' would be used for car models, with the number indicating the relative size and position of the cars in the hierarchy of Cadillac models." And yes, that means what you think it means - Cadillac will use the exact same naming formula, albeit with different letters, as Infiniti.
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.
