1959 Cadillac Coupe DeVille. Excellent project car. Previous owner had this car sitting in his backyard in the heart of downtown Phoenix for about 30 years. Last registered in Arizona in 1974. I was planning on making it a driver and doing the interior but don't have the time to focus on it. This Caddy has a great body. Very cool sun-burnt patina paint. The floors and trunk are super solid. There is some minor rust above the fender skirts, the very lower right qt in front of the rear bumper and signs of possible older repair on the lower front fenders. Overall there is very very little rust repair to do on this Arizona car. The chrome is very good original. The bumpers are straight and rust free (including the bumper ends). The trim is complete and in good condition. I don't believe it is missing any trim or chrome. The hood is sitting loose on the car, but the hood hinges are there. The tires are brand new. Power windows, power seat, AC, etc. The interior is completely shot from the brutal Arizona sun. The dash is disassembled but is complete. The windshield and windshield gasket are new. All other glass is good except a crack in the passenger side door glass. The trunk is full of parts including; radiator, ac condensor, starter, generator, trim, buckets of hardware, etc. The engine and trans are missing but I have a 390 and tranny available that were removed from a running 1962 DeVille for an extra price. I work for a restoration shop and can have the car worked on before being picked up if desired by the new owner (make running and driving, brakes, interior, paint, etc). We ship containers with cars and parts from our shop in Phoenix headed to Sweden every month so I can arrange shipping to Scandinavia easily. It is rare to find a '59 Cadillac coupe in this condition any more. This is a great car to restore, or if you have a rusted convertible they don't get much better for parts. Please email with questions. A deposit of $1000 is due within 48 hours of the close of auction. The remaining balance is due within 10 days. The car is advertised for sale so the auction may end early (I will not close the auction if the reserve is met). |

Cadillac XT5 platform to underpin three-row crossover
Wed, Mar 16 2016Cadillac just launched the XT5 crossover to replace the SRX. But that's only the start. Speaking with Automotive News, Caddy president Johan de Nysschen confirmed that a new three-row crossover is also on the way. The seven-seater is based on a stretched version of the flexible platform underpinning the XT5, which we just drove recently. Taking that approach will give the luxury brand a larger crossover to pit against the likes of the Infiniti QX60, Audi Q7, and Volvo XC90 without having to develop one from scratch. It will also give buyers a more car-like alternative to the larger, truck-based Escalade. "It's one of the benefits of having this very flexible architecture. We can expand it, make it longer and wider. That gives us the ability to develop the car very quickly, as opposed to starting from scratch," de Nysschen told AN. "It's not running yet. It is a program request that we initiated with the engineers only last year. They are working at remarkable, record-breaking speed to get us the car." The new model would likely be called the XT7 and offer similar levels of equipment to the existing, smaller XT5. The existing mid-size model packs a 3.6-liter V6 mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission and comes in four trim levels. Related Video:
GM issues four new recalls, 2.4 million cars affected
Tue, 20 May 2014General Motors has announced another set of recalls, covering some 2.42 million cars in the United States. For those keeping track, The General has now recalled over 15 million cars worldwide this year due to various issues.
Here's the breakdown for this most recent set of recalls:
1,339,355 - Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia models from the 2009 to 2014 model years; Saturn Outlook models from the 2009 to 2010 model years
GM intends to offer semi-autonomous vehicles by 2020
Fri, 30 Aug 2013Prepare for a few years of technological saber-rattling, as the world's automakers begin pushing to bring self-driving cars to market. Earlier this week, Nissan announced that it aims to offer autonomous vehicles by 2020, while Google, BMW and several other marks are working on similar efforts.
General Motors is doing things differently, though. Rather than push for a fully autonomous car, it's continuing to refine its semi-autonomous Super Cruise, a product that we tested in April 2012 and that will eventually see use on some Cadillacs before trickling down to the rest of the General Motors family. Super Cruise, which is undergoing testing in the Cadillac SRX, doesn't take complete control out of the driver's hands. Rather, under a very specific set of circumstances on the freeway, it will marry the capabilities of things like lane departure warning and adaptive cruise control to allow the driver to take their hands off the wheel. All of which sounds a lot like the system Mercedes-Benz is launching on the 2014 S-Class.
The system is still in development, according to John Capp, GM's director of electrical controls and active safety technology. Now that that the biggest hurdle, steering control, has been cleared, GM's engineers can focus on things like teaching the system to adapt to differing road conditions and visibility levels. As we reported in 2012, Super Cruise is still befuddled in low-visibility situations or when road markings aren't particularly clear.
