Up for auction is my 1968 Cadillac Sedan DeVille. This particular Sedan DeVille is not a hardtop, it is a post vehicle which means there is a post between the front and rear doors. The car has an original 84,663 miles and is in presentable, original condition. The car still retains approximately 80% of its original paint with some fading on the trunk and hood areas. I did have the vinyl top replaced in 2007 and the vinyl top is still in excellent condition. When the original vinyl top was removed there was no signs of rust and it was treated/prepped/sealed prior to the installation of the new top. There is a small door ding in the drivers door as well as a small ding between the right hand cornering light and headlight door (see pictures). There is also a dent in the rear bumper removable molding insert on the drivers side (see picture). About six months ago I noticed a few rust bubbles on the lower front fenders and I took the vehicle to a body shop to have them repaired and the paint blended into the original paint.

The interior is in excellent original condition for the age of the vehicle, but does have some flaws. The flaws include some armrest cracking on the driver and passenger side front door panels. One button on the front seat upholstery popped off and one floor mat is missing (passenger side front). The carpet, headliner, dash pad, and the rest of the interior looks good. The car is fairly well-equipped including air-conditioning (working - new compressor charged with R134a), power windows (all working), power seat, power door locks (which are lazy at times I think they are vacuum controlled), tilt-telescopic steering wheel, automatic headlight dimmers, AM/FM Stereo Radio with power antenna, cruise-control (works when it wants to from time to time), automatic trunk release with vacuum pull down trunk lock, rear window defrost, and a clock that does not work.

Mechanically the car is in excellent condition. I had the engine rebuilt which included new rings, new bearings, new cam, new lifters, new push rods, new valve seals, new timing chain set, new oil pump/screen, and new gaskets/seals. Also the car has had all of the following replaced: new carburetor, new starter, new distributor, new smog pump, new water pump, new gear box, new radiator hoses, new belts, new power steering pump, new power steering hoses, new thermostat, new fuel pump, and the radiator was cleaned and tested. All the brake components were replaced which included new brake shoes, new brake wheel cylinders, new brake hoses, new hardware kits, and new master cylinder.

The vehicle is currently being sold as-is and where-is with no warranty implied or expressed. Make sure to ask any and all questions prior to bidding on this vehicle. A deposit of $500.00 dollars will be required within 5 days from the close of auction. The buyer is responsible for shipping and transport. The high bidder can make additional arrangements with seller if both agree. Full payment is required within 10 days of auction's close. Cash or Cashiers Check/Money Order. Please note title and car will be held until method of payment clears the bank. As mentioned earlier please ask all your questions prior to bidding. Any questions will be answered honestly, because I do not want anyone to be dissatisfied. 

Lastly, this item is being re-listed due to a bidder who was not aware of how an auction site worked and placed a bid without knowing the responsibilities or consequences associated with not following through with being a high bidder.  Therefore, please bid responsibly and ask questions prior to bidding.  Make sure to read the rules and guidelines of eBay prior to making a commitment to purchase an item.  Thank you for understanding.

Cadillac will kill the plug-in ELR

Tue, Feb 2 2016

Johan de Nysschen, president of General Motors' Cadillac division, says Caddy's ELR extended-range plug-in won't have any future generations, Automotive News (subs. req.) says. The publication previously reported that the car would be around for another couple of years, but even that's questionable, and the model could be yanked even sooner. Cadillac spokesman David Caldwell confirmed that there won't be a second-generation ELR. "Subsequent generations of the car will not be developed," he wrote in an e-mail to Autoblog. "It's available currently as a 2016 model, and there's no change to that status." The model debuted in late 2013 and used a version of the powertrain in the Chevrolet Volt. The main problem, of course, was that the car had a $76,000 price tag that proved too much for most automobile buyers to stomach. Last year, GM sold 1,024 ELRs, down 22 percent from 2014's totals. By comparison, the Chevy Volt moved more than 15,000 units, and that itself was still down 18 percent from year-earlier figures. The merciful end to the ELR shouldn't be much of a surprise, as Cadillac Chief Marketing Officer Uwe Ellinghaus went on the record in December of essentially calling the model a dud. It's a far cry from the excitement, though, that the concept model of what was then called the Converj was unveiled to the public at the Detroit Auto Show in 2009. For those feeling misty-eyed or nostalgic, though, check here for Autoblog's First Drive impressions of the extended-range plug-in.

2013 Cadillac XTS [w/video]

Wed, 30 Jan 2013

The Cadillac Of Stopgaps
As confusing as most alphanumeric car names have gotten in recent years, at least one constant has been that the letter "X" is generally indicative of a crossover. Then why did General Motors use this letter on its new 2013 Cadillac XTS luxury sedan? Well, for that, we'll have to look to the world of mathematics where "X" stands for an unknown variable or a placeholder. Now we're talking. The XTS is just an interim product sitting at the top of Cadillac's four-door food chain until the brand gets a true flagship in place. That sounds like a lot of resources to spend on what will likely be a one-and-done model, but the automaker needed to get something - anything - to replace the DTS.
So here you have the 2013 XTS. A big luxury sedan that was created to bridge the gap between Cadillac's recent past and its pending future. Going into our week with this XTS knowing that it was a stopgap measure proved to be both a blessing and a curse. On one hand, we know (or hope) that this car will act as a baseline for future high-end Cadillac models, but at the same time, we couldn't help but be mindful of past stopgap models, albeit in more entry-level segments, like the Cimarron and Catera.
