 Greetings,

You are bidding on a 1982 Cadillac Sedan DeVille with 21,700 original miles. This has been a one family owned car since it was bought new from the Cadillac Dealer here in North Central Ohio. This car was garage kept, never saw snow and seldom saw rain. The story goes that it was only driven to church and to special occasions that required the status of showing up in style, and this car certainly fits the bill. Everything works to the best of my knowledge, and the a/c still blows cold. The interior is spotless, with no stains, marks, rips, tears or wear showing in the seats, carpet or door panels. It looks new inside.

The car came standard with power windows, power locks, power 60/40 seats with center armrests both front and back, power brakes, cruise control, tilt & telescoping steering wheel, am/fm cassette, automatic climate control, and headlights, adjustable mirrors, Delayed wipers, and many other options available at the time.    

The outside is in the same condition, with the chrome shining like new, and the paint needing nothing but a touch-up to take care of a scratch or two. The fender fillers are in need of replacement as all of these old cars do. But, I have obtained new ones, and painted them to match. They just need to be put on. You'll want to do something to the old girl, so I left these to the new owner. I will also provide extra matching paint for any mishaps in the future.

The car runs well, given the fact that it wasn't driven much since 2005. The check engine light flutters on and off at a idle, but goes out quickly under power. I believe it will clear itself of this problem the more it is driven. The tires are the originals, but show good tread. It is nice to open a hood of a car this old and find it to be just as nice as the rest of the vehicle. Nothing under the hood shows of excessive wear and tear. It is mileage appropriate.

The title is clean, it is NOT a salvage title, and the mileage stated on the title is State of Ohio correct. The title is marked with a mileage discrepancy only because when it was transferred from the parents to the daughter during the settling of the families estate, they guessed at the mileage instead of looking to make sure of what it actually was. They guessed higher than the original miles on the car, and the old title reflected that. I have a copy of the old title to accompany the new one for anyone wishing to verify it, and the new title reflects the actual mileage on the vehicle.

In closing, this car is one that time has been good too. It was well maintained and kept looking good for the past thirty plus years. You can go to car shows and look at the ones that have been restored and look at the ones that are all original and show only few miles. It is hard to beat getting a piece of history that is as nice today as it was new from the factory. Even the floor mats are in great if not like new shape. I would love to keep this car myself, and hold on to it for another twenty years. It is hard telling what a Cadillac of this condition will be worth in its fifties. But, I do need to find this car the right new owner. One that appreciates a classic and gives it the respect it deserves. 

Please feel free to call with any questions, or concerns. I want you to be happy with you purchase.

Former Cadillac boss Butler takes Ford tech job

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

When Don Butler made the surprising decision to leave his post as Cadillac's VP of global strategic development, it was a surprise. Citing a desire to "recalibrate, reassess my priorities" in that August announcement, it wasn't entirely clear where Butler - a virtual General Motors lifer after spending nearly 30 years with the company - would end up. Turns out he took a trip to Dearborn.
Butler has taken a position in the newly created position of Executive Director of Connected Vehicles and Services at Ford, where he'll be responsible for the Blue Oval's global connectivity strategy. "Not only does Don understand the connected car landscape, but probably just as important, he understands customer expectations," said Raj Nair, who, as Group Vice President of Global Product Development, is Butler's new boss. "Having a leader with technology experience both inside and outside the industry is a rare combination - we're excited to have Don join our team."
As Ford has received its fair share of flak for the sometimes recalcitrant MyFord Touch infotainment system and its Sync voice-controls, it appears that Butler has his work cut out for him.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.

GM extending warranties on Cadillac CTS-V and Chevy Camaro ZL1 for supercharger issue

Wed, 04 Jun 2014

Okay General Motors, we've sat by and watched you recall the compact cars, crossovers and pickup trucks, and aside from reporting on it, we've been fairly quiet. This, though, this will not do. We can almost tolerate the recalls on the bread-and-butter cars, but leave the performance vehicles alone.
According to a report from The Car Connection, GM has discovered a problem with the superchargers of the 6.2-liter V8s found in the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 and the Cadillac CTS-V. Apparently, the issue rests around the internal bearing shaft grease, which can become contaminated (we aren't sure with what). If left unchecked, it'll first lead to a rattle at idle, which goes away under slight throttle. The real warning stage is when a high-pitched squeal develops, signaling that the bearing shaft has failed. Naturally, severe engine damage is the next step (although it's possible that the engine will also just refuse to turnover, although neither case is desirable).
According to TCC, GM will replace the superchargers on vehicles that have exhibited symptoms of bearing shaft failure free of charge. It will also, allegedly, be extending the warranty on all supercharged ZL1s and CTS-Vs to 10 years or 120,000 miles (whichever comes first), from the date of purchase. Officially, only 2009 to 2013 CTS-Vs and 2012 to 2013 ZL1s are suffering from this issue.
