1969 Cadillac Deville Convertible.  I drove the Cadillac Convertible today, and it runs good. This is a running, driving, Cadillac Convertible. It starts easily, the engine sounds good, and it shifts and stops properly. The power steering and power brakes work well. I have a clear original Utah title in my name.  This car is an excellent candidate for a restoration project. Drive it while you go through the restoration process.  Please look closely at all of the photos. The hood and trunk trim pieces in the trunk, along with an extra grille, headlight rims, and power window motors. The reserve price on my Cadillac Convertible is well below its value. I will gladly help the new owner in shipping the Cadillac anywhere in the world. The shipping expense is the new owner's responsibility.

I want the new owner to know exactly what they are getting.  With this in mind, I will explain in detail the problem areas of the car. 1. The convertible top is tattered and needs to be replaced. The top bows are in good condition, and the top bows align properly and lock securely to the front windshield. 2. There is old body work that was not completed.  Metal has been welded in and needs to be completed. Again, please look closely at the photos. The floors are dry and there are no rust holes. The body is straight and the doors align and close properly. The hood hinge on the passenger's side needs adjustment. 3. The tires hold air, but will need to be replaced and it is missing the spare tire. 4.The top can be put up and down by hand, but the motor needs attention. The fabric top needs to be replaced. 5. One hubcap is missing. 6.  The power windows work, but the passenger's side door window is slow, and the driver's side rear window is slow. 7. The trunk lock does not work properly, but the parts needed to fix have been purchased and come with the car. 8. The dash pad has some cracks. 

 If you have any questions about the car please don't hesitate to give me a call.  My phone number is (801) 745-5835 or use the Ebay message system.  Please review my Ebay feedback scores. I highly value my 100% positive feedback.
If you have less than 5 positive feedback in your Ebay feedback score, please email or call me before bidding.  I want this to be a good straightforward auction.  A $500.00 deposit is required within 24 hours of the auction closing unless other arrangements are made.

How GM's grueling 24-hour test gets the kinks out of its performance cars

Tue, 27 Aug 2013

One of the biggest challenges automakers face when designing a high-performance car is making sure that it is both fast and reliable. For General Motors, any car that might be taken to the track by its owner - like the Corvette, Camaro Z/28 (shown above) and the Cadillac CTS-V, for example - undergoes a rigorous and strenuous 24-hour test by engineers at the Milford Proving Grounds, as pointed out by Car and Driver.
We've posted on this topic in the past - on a video showing the Camaro ZL1 being brutalized, for instance - but this article gives a more in-depth look at what actually happens behind the scenes... including what that poor ZL1 went through. Though the test isn't for 24 hours straight, the cars are pushed as hard as possible by some of GM's best drivers with only the brakes and tires replaced frequently.
We don't want to ruin the fun for you, but it is an interesting article that tells just some of what GM does to develop its sports cars. Check out the full article over at Car and Driver for the rest of the story.

GM to idle car production at five factories as Americans continue CUV love affair

Mon, Dec 19 2016

In case you needed another reminder that Americans have fallen out of love with sedans, General Motors today announced plans to idle five factories in January in a bid to cut its inventory to 70 days. Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly ( Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac CT6, Chevrolet Volt and Impala) and Fairfax Assembly in Kansas ( Chevy Malibu) will stop production for three weeks. Lansing Grand River ( Cadillac ATS and CTS, and Chevy Camaro) is going down for two weeks, while Lordstown, OH ( Chevy Cruze) and Bowling Green, KY ( Chevy Corvette) will go idle for a week each, Automotive News reports. GM's shutdown reflects a broader problem with the company's supply – at 847,000 vehicles, the company's supply increased unsteadily from a low of 629,000 units in January of 2016. That's more than a 25 percent increase in the past year. Citing information from Autodata, The Detroit News reports that at the end of November, GM had a 168-day supply of LaCrosses, 177 days' worth of Camaro, 170 days of Corvette, 121 days for Cruze, 119 days for ATS, 132 days for CTS, and 110 days of CT6. Meanwhile, inventory of the company's more popular vehicles is actually below the professionally accepted 60- to 70-day supply, The News reports. The Trax, Colorado pickup, and GM's full-size SUVs are sitting below 50 days and experiencing year-over-year sales increases. GM needs a rethink of its inventory levels, which is something that's apparently coming. "We're going to be responsible in managing our inventory levels," GM spokesman Jim Cain told The News. Another unnamed spokesman told Automotive News the company's day-to-day supplies would "fluctuate before moderating at year-end." But at least one analyst thinks this won't be the last time Detroit needs to stop production to level things out. "Incentives are elevated, residuals are declining, and rates are rising," Brian Johnson, an analyst with Barclays, told The News. "And while GM in particular may benefit in the months ahead from new product launches, it's important to recognize that GM's inventory is elevated at the moment, and it wouldn't surprise us if they need to announce another production cut – which could pressure the stock."

Cadillac considering more engines, Vsport model for Escalade

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

Want to roll in the latest Cadillac Escalade? You can get it with a 6.2-liter V8... or a 6.2-liter V8. Cadillac only offers the one engine option. But that may soon change.
According to the latest from Automotive News, Cadillac is contemplating a couple of new powertrain options for its blingin' big ute. The report suggests a twin-turbo V6 and a V6 turbodiesel could be offered, and that Cadillac could create a Vsport version of the Escalade like it offers on the new CTS sedan.
The more diverse engine offerings would help attract buyers from the new Lincoln Navigator, its prime competitor, which switched from a 5.4-liter V8 this year to a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6. The turbo V6 engines (both gasoline and diesel) would also help Cadillac market the Escalade overseas - particularly in Europe, where higher fuel prices preclude the prospect of driving a big V8 SUV for many buyers. Escalade sales have dropped from 35-40k units in the mid-2000s to around 12,000 the past couple of years.
