I bought this car about a year and a half ago and have loved driving in it. The thumbs up from other drivers, and the talks at gas stations are one of my favorite things about driving it. You get attention from men and women of all ages! Who doesn't like to see an American Classic role by? Anyways, I have to sell this car because I am going over to the Middle East for the next 12 months and my darling wife is unable to take care of it. I love this car and hate to see it go, especially after all the money I have recently put into the motor rebuild. 


Here is a brief history of the car before I bought it. 

It was originally owned in Arizona by a husband and wife duo who used it as a their getaway car while robbing a bank. They did so unsuccessfully and the car was apprehended and put up for auction where an FBI agent bought it and babied it for a few years. It stayed in Arizona the whole time up until it as sold to another FBI Agent. When the second Agent was transferred to a Virginia assignment he had to sell the car (which he chose to do on ebay) which is when I became the owner of the car. I shipped the car to Florida where it has been garaged practically ever since except for a few short trips around the East Coast of Florida, and the occasional Sunday drive. As I stated earlier, I have just finished having the engine rebuild less than a month ago, and it starts up every time. The side pipes are loud enough to get attention and really claim that deep throaty engine noise that the muscle cars love to emit, but not so loud that they are a nuisance to drive with or difficult to speak over. The color is actually a very dark blue, but it looks black unless you're looking very close in direct sunlight. The red interior is a classic, and the owner prior to me had them reupholstered before he sold me this dream car. The interior gauge clusters are all original and show a little fading, but are still clearly legible and look great. The 4 speed pulls strong through all the gears and really gives it that classic feel as you are driving. This is the last year that they offered the metal front bumper, and the chrome on it really shines after a cleaning. As you can see in the pictures the car looks great from a few feet away and up close. The interior drive and passenger side windows tint looks great while driving and really help keep the sun out of the interior. The tint is rather old though and could use replacing, but still works just fine. The interior of the car (except the seats) is all original and there is some scratches here and there. The T-Tops look great and come off easily, just two levers on either side and they come off in a jiffy! There is a rack behind the two seats that you can store them on while driving in case it begins to rain so you can get them on quickly as well. Included is all the receipts and paperwork I have collected during replacing parts and having work done on the vehicle, along with some spare bits and ends of parts that I have either not used or had extra. The gentleman before me 

Below is a list of all the new parts and work I have had done while the vehicle was in my care.

Full engine rebuild which includes:
new pistons/rings .30 over
brand new connecting rods and rod bearings
Brand new crankshaft along with main bearings
New oil pump
Double row timing set
Custom camshaft and new cam bearings
All new gasket and freeze plugs for the bottom end. 
The top end was rebuilt with all new valves
Valve guides and a valve job
Brand new valve seals
Rebuild Harland sharp rocker arms
New lifters 
Brand new harmonic balancer 
Brand new brute force clutch kit with clutch, pressure plate, throwout bearing 

The previous owner had some work done on 2/10/2012:
New AC Filter Dryer
AC Flush Solvent
AC Compressor w/ Clutch (remanufactured)
AC Refrigerant
AC Belt
Retro Fit Kit
AC Expansion Valve
CQ Thermostats
CQ Water Outlets
Hose Clamps
Radiator Hose
Cooling System Flush
Global Antifreeze
CQ RED Filters by Wix
CQ Cardone Remanufactured Wiper Motors
NEW ALTERNATOR

As of right now the AC is not kicking out cold air, but does work when you turn it on. I believe the AC just needs to be recharged. Tires are in great shape with plenty of tread left on them. I am leaving on Tuesday 6/25 so I am leaving my mechanic's information for any questions. His name is Josh Super and his email is joshsuper@live.com he will be able to answer any questions you may have regarding the mechanical work done to the vehicle. He has done all of my mechanical work since I've owned the vehicle. 

Thank you for looking and happy bidding!!

One last thing I forgot, if you email my mechanic he has a video of the car running that he can send you as well.

GM recalls Cadillac ATS and Chevy Impala for separate issues

Fri, Feb 27 2015

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration added two recalls from General Motors in the government organization's daily update of safety campaigns. Both were for failing to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards but for completely separate reasons. The larger recall covers 58,698 units of the 2013-2015 Cadillac ATS, but it doesn't really carry huge safety concerns. In vehicles produced between April 25, 2012, and February 9, 2015, the controls for the tilt and slide of the moonroof are not recessed enough, as required by federal law. According to NHTSA, it's possible that someone could inadvertently activate the auto-close for the roof panel, which the agency claims increases "the risk of personal injury." Dealers will install a new trim plate that will add the necessary clearance. The other campaign covers 1,177 examples of the 2014 Chevrolet Impala from between November 15, 2012, and May 27, 2014. However, this is actually a repeat of a previous recall on the Chevy and the Cadillac XTS from 2014. The affected Impalas here "were remedied incorrectly" under the earlier campaign, according to NHTSA. On these sedans, it's possible the electronic parking brake might not fully disengage and still remain in some contact with the rotor, which is in violation of federal rules. The fault can cause excessive heat from the brakes that could potentially lead to a fire, according to NHTSA. To fix the problem, dealers will reprogram the electronic parking brake control module.

In the affected vehicles, the power-operated roof panels auto-close when the non-recessed "Slide" or "Tilt" switches are pressed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) No.

Cadillac Celestiq, Lyriq, Hummer, other future GM electric cars: Here's everything we saw at ‘EV Day’

Wed, Mar 4 2020

WARREN, Mich. — Today, General Motors held an “EV Day” event at its Warren, Michigan, campus to present its new “Ultium” battery technology, modular electric vehicle architecture and soon-to-come electric vehicles. Unfortunately, we were forbidden from bringing cameras into the event, so while we canÂ’t show you what we saw, we can tell you more about it. While we saw the previously teased Cadillac EV (which we now know to be called the Lyriq) and the GMC Hummer pickup teased during the Super Bowl, there were a number of other future cars at the event, which GM President Mark Reuss assured us are all real vehicles in the works. The biggest surprise came at the end of the event, though, in the Cadillac Celestiq electric sedan, which Reuss described as a future flagship that would be hand-built “very locally.” It had been hiding under a dark sheet all morning, with the front and rear illuminated Cadillac emblems shining from underneath. When the wraps came off, we saw a long, white, four-seat fastback sedan. The 23-inch wheels were pushed out to the very corners of the car, giving it what appeared to be a very long wheelbase. The model on the stage had no side mirrors or visible door handles. The grille mirrored that of the Lyriq crossover next to it, with integrated lighting in lieu of the usual mesh or slats youÂ’d see in an internal combustion car. The entire roof, all the way until it tapered to the tail of the vehicle, was tinted glass. In back, vertical tail lighting ran down the C-pillar before turning rearward across the top of the trunk. Inside, everything below the beltline of the windows — essentially all but the headrests and top portion of the steering wheel, was hidden from view. Behind the Celestiq, a large digital display showed a rendering of its interior. The dash consists of a pillar-to-pillar curved LED display serving as both instrument panel and infotainment system. Protruding forward between the front seats was another touchscreen that appeared to house some more controls, with open area, probably for storage, below it. The rear seats had the same sort of touchscreen between them. Built into the back of the front seats were a pair of rear-seat entertainment screens, much like we saw in the Lyriq. The door panels blended wood, metal and animated lighting to give character and a sense of opulence. GM interior design manager Tristan Murphy was on hand to tell us a bit more about the Celestiq.

2016 Chevy Volt will have more EV range, bigger battery

Tue, Oct 28 2014

Meet the new Volt, not the same as the old Volt. That appears to be the story when General Motors introduces the 2016 Chevy Volt at the Detroit Auto Show in January. Today we're getting some more details on the guts of the new plug-in hybrid, and it turns out they're going to be much improved from the current Volt, which first went on sale at the end of 2010. Sure, the first-gen Volt did get some improvements along the way (a slightly larger battery pack, lane departure warnings) but the new Volt – which will go on sale in the second half of 2015 – marks the first time GM has been able to return to the drawing board and really make the improvements that its customers want. That's how Larry Nitz, GM's executive director of vehicle electrification explained it to AutoblogGreen today when explaining the all-new Voltec extended range electric vehicle (EREV) powertrain. "In the Gen 2 is we gave the engine a little more power, a little more torque, a little more displacement, more capability." – Larry Nitz Nitz said that the new Volt will be better in almost every sense: a bigger battery, longer EV-only range, 20 percent better acceleration in the low speed range and higher overall efficiency. This is due, in part, to the Volt's two motors being able to both act as generators and power the car. As we noted this morning, the 2016 Volt will use a larger, 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine, a version of which is already used in the Chinese-market Cruze. Nitz said that this has a number of benefits, including more power and quieter operation. "Some people would say, why did you make [the first-gen engine] so big. I would say, why did you make it so small?" he said. "It works good, our customers love it, but the reality is that if you go a little bit off and use the car a little harder, you can get the engine to need to operate at a higher speed. In an EV, that's quite noticeable. So, what we did in the Gen 2 is we gave the engine a little more power, a little more torque, a little more displacement, more capability and what it has marginally enabled is not only is it more efficient but it's also quieter." Nitz wouldn't talk about how the new powertrain might affect the two other products that use the Volt's underpinnings – the Cadillac ELR and the Opel Ampera – but if you've got a quieter option, we assume that's something ELR drivers would enjoy. But that's a story for another day.
