1966 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible 


The 1966 Cadillac Eldorado convertible, with a production run of only 2,250 vehicles makes this baby a rare gem. With over 200,000 Cadillacs sold in 1966... the 1966 Cadillac was the best ever in sales and production in the history Cadillac. The 1966 Cadillac convertible production reached its peak with 19,200 1966 Cadillac DeVille Convertibles and 2,250 1966 Eldorado convertibles produced. This is an ultra rare car. Only 2,250 1966 Cadillac Eldorado convertibles manufactured. Of which less than ten percent (200 cars) were equipped with the ultra rare bucket seats and console. Furthermore, how many were built like this car and equipped with dual power bucket seats? Additionally, this car appears to have been originally equipped with rare factory head rests.

This car has an interesting history, having been bought new by a cattle dealer in the state of Vermont, who upon his retirement sold it to a Vermont State Senator. It has been blessed to have never have been driven in inclement weather and stored indoors during the winter months. As such, it has only racked up 73,068 original miles on its odometer. This is a very original and unmolested car. It still sports its original leather interior and carpeting. Best of all, it has an uncracked dash pad. It was treated to a very high quality paint refinish in its original Aztec red using Sikkens paint a few years ago by its third owners (a pair of physicians) who owned the car for 17 years and lovingly kept it garaged and out of the rain. The black convertible top was also replaced at that time and is close to new.

This car could be enjoyed the way it is, or upgraded with very little effort. I have located the original missing stainless trim for the bottom of the rear quarters. I just drove this car on a 300 mile trip at highway speeds with no problems. I am a fussy Dentist.

Online Find Of The Day: 2008 Cadillac XLR picks up where Excalibur left off

Thu, 23 May 2013

We try very, very hard to keep snark away from creations like the one you see here. After all, someone poured plenty of enthusiasm, time and money into turning a 2008 Cadillac XLR into a modern interpretation of the new-old cars typically done by cottage builders like Excalibur and Clénet. Even so, it's hard not to wince when you set an eye on this machine. With its wheelbase stretched to accommodate the extra bodywork, goofy sidewalls and upkicked nose (examine it in profile, it looks slightly bent in the middle), this "neoclassic" takes whatever was loveable about the Cadillac underneath and buries it in a tacky grave.
Miraculously, the engine bay has been left unmolested, which means the retractable hardtop convertible still features a 4.6-liter Northstar V8 engine good for 320 horsepower. If only that were enough to outrun its shame. If, for some reason, you feel like taking this thing home, Harry Kaufmann Motorcars of Milwaukee says it can be yours for a paltry $74,998. We wish were joking. Check it out here.

Watch the 2014 Cadillac CTS get its groove on in the rain

Sun, 31 Mar 2013

In case you haven't got enough of the 2014 Cadillac CTS that just debuted at the New York Auto Show, Cadillac has let us have some rolling footage of the car around its test track along with a few words from VP of marketing Don Butler and executive director of design Mark Adams.
You won't learn much more about its 420-horsepower, twin-turbo V6 but you can hear how it growls in the rain, and you can get a better idea of how you'll look in the driver's seat giving it a workout. That's got to be worth something, right? You'll find both videos just below.

Meet the mother-daughter team that's worked on almost every Chevy Volt

Sun, May 11 2014

It's Mother's Day, and we're soft enough we love our mothers enough to share a new video from General Motors with you. In it, we meet Monique Watson (left) and Evetta Osbourne, a mother-daughter team that works at the Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly where GM makes the Chevy Volt (along with all of GM's other plug-in hybrids: the Opel Ampera, Holden Volt and Cadillac ELR). The two work side-by-side and have installed the lithium-ion battery pack on almost all of those vehicles - nearly 80,000 of them - since GM started making the pre-production Volts in 2009. In a prepared statement, Watson said that she likes working next to her mom, day in and day out, and they the two are totally in sync when it comes to putting the 400-pound, 16.5-kWh packs into the vehicle undersides. They two can also share stories throughout the day, and Watson said, "The arrangement has absolutely improved our relationship." Osborne started working at Detroit-Hamtramck in 1999, Watson since 2006. If you're driving a Volt today, you probably have them to thank for doing a bit of the work putting your car together. See a short video of them in action below. It's Always Mother's Day for Detroit-Hamtramck Duo Mother, daughter install lithium-ion battery pack in nearly all GM electric vehicles 2014-05-08 DETROIT – For Detroit resident Evetta Osborne, every day is Mother's Day. That's because she literally works side by side with her daughter, Monique Watson, at General Motors' Detroit-Hamtramck assembly plant. They have installed the lithium-ion battery pack on nearly every Chevrolet Volt, Opel Ampera, Holden Volt, and Cadillac ELR since production began. In fact, apart from vacation days and an occasional sick day, the mother-daughter duo has installed almost every battery pack since the Volt was in pre-production in 2009. The ELR launched earlier this year. All told – including Ampera – that's more than 80,000 electric vehicles. "We're a good team and our relationship is secondary when it comes to performing our jobs – but it's great to work alongside my daughter, said Osborne, a mother of five. Because the battery packs weigh more than 400 pounds each, automatic guided vehicles – robotic carts that use sensors to follow a path through the plant – deliver them just as the vehicle body structures glide into position overhead. The carts then lift the T-shaped packs, and Osborne and Watson guide them into the chassis and secure each one with 24 fasteners.
