1976 Cadillac Seville Base Sedan 4-door 5.7l on 2040-cars

Ogden, Utah, United States

Up for your inspection is a First Generation 1976 Cadillac Seville.  It is a beautiful metallic silver with a matching padded vinyl top and a soft, supple gray leather interior.  

This car has the 5.7L 350 Cu. In. motor with electronic fuel injection and an automatic transmission.  It runs and drives like a dream.  It is a pleasure to drive it and wherever I go I get people giving me the thumbs up, or mouthing their admiration for this beautiful car.  

Once again, here are the things wrong with the car.  Small amount of surface rust where top meet trunk below the rear window as well as one tiny spot of rust on the very front bottom of the drivers side front fender.  The power antenna does not go all the way up but the AM/FM stereo sounds fine. Also the clock does not work as most of them don't and there are a couple of cracks in the top of the dash which is very common in these cars. All windows go up and down properly as well as the power seats.  The main lock switch will open all four doors but for some reason it will not lock the passenger side doors. They do work but just will not lock from the drivers door, but as I stated earlier it will open all four doors. Also, there is a small minor leak in the power steering pump.  It really leaks slowly.  Not a bad drip, but something I want potential buyers to be aware of. Also, there is a scratch in the passenger rear door.  It had a new water pump and hoses installed in January of this year.

I hate to see this car go, but I am currently using it as a daily driver and I want it to go to a home where it will get the attention it deserves and not have the wear and tear on it that it receives now.  I also need a car that is more fuel efficient because I have to make frequent trips between northern Utah and the Bay Area and San Francisco for medical reasons.  As we all know, the mid 70's full size luxury cars weren't produced to be fuel efficient.  

This is a strong running car.  If I were to keep it I would have the minor rust issues addressed and have it repainted in a water based enamel paint.  I know that you can still get the original color.  

This car has a clear Utah title and it is sold as is, where is.  Buyer is responsible to have it shipped but I will be happy to assist in arranging that.  

I think that I have covered everything.  If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.  Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.

Ghostbusters director tweets first photos of new Ecto-1

Wed, Jul 8 2015

Ghostbusters is heading back to theaters next year with a new look. Rather than bringing back the original's aging comedic actors, four actresses are taking over the starring roles, including Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon, and Leslie Jones. Although, one of the movie's major highlights is missing from that list – the Ecto-1. Originally based on a 1959 Cadillac ambulance, we're now getting the first glimpses of the decked-out, ghost-hunting wagon from the new version thanks to director Paul Feig on Twitter. Purists might like that the Ghostbusters are sticking with a Caddy, but the producers are going for a slightly newer, more macabre approach, as well. Rather than an ambulance conversion, the latest one starts as a hearse. Feig also has his Twitter profile picture of a ghost taking over as the hood ornament, and he even tweeted a shot of the rear. @szewcik_james Okay. pic.twitter.com/sHkx1Soj6p — Paul Feig (@paulfeig) July 8, 2015 Being the Internet, Feig is being deluged both with hyperbolic vitriol for changing things, and praise for the switch. He has politely tweeted about the situation. Not blocking or deleting. I hear you all and appreciate all your input, good or bad. Thanks. https://t.co/pxZsWGeNyL — Paul Feig (@paulfeig) July 8, 2015 Keep in mind this Caddy hearse is about as old today as the original Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters' release in 1984. Having the ladies driving a '50s Caddy might stretch the imagination too far even in a movie about fighting the undead. This approach seems like a perfect compromise between old and new.

GM's Mark Reuss explains why a performance Cadillac ELR-V won't happen

Tue, Mar 18 2014

Hey, I've got enough things to worry about. That's one interpretation of General Motors executive vice president Mark Reuss' response to a question posed by Driving the Nation about the recently-introduced Cadillac ELR plug-in hybrid. Reuss said GM will "definitely expand the tuning envelope" for the ELR. The question was whether GM would consider adding magnetic ride control to the quite-powerful-for-a-plug-in Caddy, creating an "ELR-V" model in the process. Reuss' non-answer: "Good question, can't really answer that," but then elaborated that magnetic ride control uses up "a lot" of power otherwise spoken for in terms of providing the longest electric-only range possible. Interestingly, he did add that GM will "definitely expand the tuning envelope" for the ELR, as you can see in the video below. With the model retailing for north of $75,000, fewer than 60 percent of US Cadillac dealers were carrying the ELR as of last month and just 99 ELRs were sold during the first two months of the year. In an effort to sell more vehicles, GM said in January that it would offer the ELR for a 39-month lease for $699 a month for qualified lessees and with a $5,999 down-payment required. Autoblog's First Drive impressions of the ELR can be found here.
