1984 Cadillac Eldorado Coupe


Up for Auction: SUPER LOW FAIR RESERVE !!!

A very nice 1984 Caddy Eldorado 2 dr coupe.
This car was originally sold here in Tucson and basically never
left unless it was for a road trip or 2. What you wont find on
the car is any rust on the car. Its your typical rust free Az car
with a solid body. The car was always parked in a garage or a
carport so the Az sun didnt get to it as badly as some cars.
Best we can tell, its still the original white paint which is showing
its age and its getting faded in areas. I think most of it could be
clay barred and brought back to look pretty nice if you wanted
to and buff it out with a good wax job and it could look even better.
We may try to do that this week with a local detailer we use.

Factory V8 car loaded like you would expect from a Caddy
Some back story about the car, the car was owned by a friend of
mines dad, he bought it new in 84 from the original owner and
drove it up till about 03, when it got parked for something smaller.
Around that time w/ aprox 127k on the car he basically parked 
the car when he bought a new car, so this car as essentially sat
under cover for the last 11 yrs with an empty gas tank. To get it
back on the road, we changed some of the fluids, dropped the
tank and put a new fuel pump and screen in (just to be safe), put
in some fresh gas and with a few cranks of the key, it fired right
up. It runs and drives like an older Caddy should. The tires look 
good but I know are pretty old.

DRIVETRAIN:  the original throttle body injected V8
motor runs and sounds good.
It idles nice and runs like it should. We where going to 
do more of a tune up on it, but its been running so well
Im leaving it alone. Nice and unmolested under the hood
its almost like a time capsule there. AC clicks on using the
climate control on the dash, but doesnt get that cool.
So at the very least it will need a charge.
The hood struts are worn out and dont hold up the hood anymore
by themselves. Again, an easy fix they are available all over
pretty cheap.

INTERIOR: All original blue velour interior shows minor wear 
and actually looks pretty awesome for its age. Think the only
seat that ever got used was the driver seat. All the electronics
seem to work and the gadgets on this car for 1981 are way ahead
of its time. Impressive for its age. The pics always make the car
look better in pics, but this car the is really clean inside too.
The steering column has the typical loose feel to it, typical of
most GMs from this ERA, generally its an easy fix, but you have
to remove the SW and get to the loose nuts down in the column
to tighten it up. 9x out of 10 thats usually the all it is in these
80s GM columns.


EXTERIOR: What looks to be like the original white paint, the body
is very straight and paint could be buffed out some to look nicer
too if you wanted to restore the car. Restoring this car wouldnt take
a whole lot or just drive it the way it is and enjoy it.
As is this car would be a nice daily driver (tires would be the 
first thing I would change on it). The stainless and chrome on this
car are in amazing shape for their age too. There is alot on 
the car from front to back from the factory.


SUSPENSION: all factory the best I can tell and Im sure some bushings
are old and shocks, things where replaced or fixed as needed.
Feels normal and solid like a Cadillac riding on a cloud :)
Smooth with no weird noises, and brakes probably need to be 
bled (from sitting) the car stops, but Ill bleed them this week.

SOME STUFF I KNOW IT NEEDS ARE: power antenna broken, some plastic
filler parts between the rear bumper and body brittle and broken
in a few areas, dr door simply wont open from the inside or outside.
Flip up part of the trunk lock cover broken, chrome trim around dr side
headlight bezel cracked & dr interior door panel showing some wear, 
and the trim on the steering wheel is peeling off.  Most of this stuff is
minor and easy fixes, but you may miss them in the pics so I wanted to 
mention them


Check out ALL the pics below ----->

it may take a full minute for them all to load if you have a
slow connection, so be patient AND looks for the extra schroll
bar on the right side.
Az gets maybe 12" a yr of rain and Az very dry climate.
more info AFTER the pics etc. There are 100 large pics.

We put a lot of time and effort in marketing our cars and it shows.
People wait months for a car this solid to come up for sale
and even if you have to pay shipping to your area, it still beats
paying a body shop to hopefully fix a rusty car for weeks on end.
Having as much as the original steel on a restored car these days
speaks volumes. 

Also, if you buy a car thats been "restored", who knows what sort
of surprises are hidden under new paint or thick undercoating.
People are flipping cars all the time when most of the jobs are
fast, for a quick buck and quality suffers.

exactly what you have in the end.

Doing restoration on this type of project is less labor

Chip Foose is bringing life to a Cadillac sketch from 1935

Sun, Aug 7 2016

General Motors, automotive home of Harley Earl, was a pioneer in the early days of car design. But for as many wild concept cars and even production cars as the company's studio created, there were still many that never got off the paper. Chip Foose is working to change the fate of one of those designs. According to Foose Design, Chip Foose's latest project is based on a sketch from 1935. Car dealer Wes Rydell and his wife Vivian commissioned a custom Cadillac coupe that was sketched out by GM designer Art Ross. It would take an existing Cadillac sedan, shorten it, lower it and give it a removable hardtop. The drawing is as far as the project got. Now Chip Foose is working on realizing the design in real life using a 1939 Cadillac Series 60 Sedan. He plans to follow the initial design brief, but with his own unique touches. He has also named the project "Madam X" in honor of what Harley Earl would call client projects. It is scheduled to be finished and ready for unveiling at the end of the summer. Foose is a well-known designer who has won some of America's most prestigious custom car awards such as the Ridler Award and designed vehicles for the TV show Overhaulin'. The final product should be quite a striking machine. You can see how it's coming along, as well as Foose's sketch of what the car will finally look like, in the gallery above.

Cadillac boss: Don't ask why we have so many sedans

Tue, Dec 1 2015

Ugh, crossovers. Car-based, high-riding station wagons, for some reason, sell in absurd numbers and make automakers lots and lots of money. That's why automakers with a strong lineup of CUVs are running strong, while sedan-heavy brands are struggling. Cadillac is all too aware of this fact. While the company is preparing to launch the new CT6 luxury sedan, it's also realizing four sedans, a coupe, a crossover, and a $73,000, old-school, body-on-frame SUV does not a healthy lineup make. Worse, though, as Cadillac President Johan de Nysschen rued during the LA Auto Show, is that the new CT6 is joining a segment already oversaturated. While it's a big, expensive vehicle, it's not much bigger or more expensive than the CTS and XTS sedans. "Please don't ask me why we have three cars in the same segment," de Nysschen said, stopping midway through an interview with Automotive News on the CT6's market placement to make the crack. "That's a whole different subject." As for those CUVs, the new XT5 debuted in LA, and it will eventually be joined by another much-needed CUV in 2018, AN reports. Related Video:

Weekly Recap: New bosses try to jump-start Cadillac and Lincoln

Sat, 26 Jul 2014



Both of America's domestic luxury brands seem to be stuck in neutral.
It's ironic that Cadillac and Lincoln got new bosses within days of each other this month. It's also a commentary on the fact both of America's domestic luxury brands seem to be stuck in neutral.
