Here is a great opportunity to own an American classic! This is a 1967 Cadillac Eldorado Hardtop. First year for this new and highly acclaimed model design. Just rebuilt engine with less than 100 miles on it. Have all receipts for parts and machine work (over 2K). Block was machined, new maximum torque specialities cam, valve job done, master rebuild kit installed, new oil pump, new fuel pump and fuel lines from gas tank to engine, gas tank dropped and cleaned, new fuel sending unit installed, fuel gauge does not work though, new temperature sensor, new vacumn hoses, radiator removed, hot tanked, roded and resoldered and pressure checked, new radiator cap, new overflow, new passanger side power window motor, new battery, new carpet, exhaust repaired and new seals/gaskets installed, two new tires installed in front.  Since the engine has been replaced, I entered 0000 as the mileage in this listing.  If you want to know the mileage on the odometer (which is not the miles on the engine) let me know

Front end has been aligned.  Transmission serviced and filter replaced.

 

Included with the car are the following new items that have not been installed: 

weatherstrip - new rear quarter window seals, roof rails, door seals

I have other parts and will add an addendum later this week.  However, there is a spare instrument cluster, compressor tank for the air cushion ride and A/C compressor.  Also, I have a 1 pound can of R12 and the a/c tools to recharge that are included.  I have not tried to test the cruise control.

The chrome on the car is very very nice original condition.  The body is very straight, there are some small old repairs on the roof side panels of some sort and the roof was repainted to protect from elements as the old vinyl roof appears to have been removed a long time ago.  Glass seems to be good. two small scratches on a side window.  No chips seen.  The body appears to be in very good overall condition, there is however some surface rust in the trunk.  Photos will be posted to show it.  The floor pans also had rust at some point and the previous owner put in new heavy duty custom floor pans. 

The car has the original jack, full size spare, mag style hubcaps (factory) factory strato seats.  Also the shop manual, body manual and Cadillac Eldorado collector car book are included too.  I will be posting some more pictures this weekend. There is the original 8 track tape unit too.. 

I have driven the car the 100 miles consisting of short trips.  It drove good.  But as I have had this car in my garage for about 4 years, I would not recommend driving it a long distance without getting the rear tires replaced.  You will notice that the engine is 472 cid vs the 425 cid .  The 472 block is much better with many improved designs for water flow in the engine, reduction of vibration from a/c and other improvements.  The block was a 1968 Cadillac Eldorado block. The car will need a new paint job.

Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs

Thu, 03 Jan 2013

General Motors says its next-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade models will offer shoppers improved interior differentiation. Car and Driver recently caught up with Chris Hilts, GM's creative manager of interior design, who said that the cabins will all feature unique instrument panels, consoles, center stacks and switchgear moving forward. Apparently GM is now aware that consumers may be bothered by the fact that today's $85,000 Escalade has effectively the same cabin as a $45,000 Tahoe. Hilts says SUV buyers want more refinement than their pickup purchasing counterparts - and those same buyers also want their SUVs to have more exterior differentiation between the company's Silverado and Sierra pickup lines. Shocking.
That all sounds good to us, but we've heard this song and dance before. GM made big waves about how different the new-for-2013 Silverado and Sierra would look from each other, but judging by what we've seen so far, GM's stylists are painting in shades rather than with the full spectrum.

Cadillac ATS was almost front-wheel drive

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

"We were going to do a front-wheel drive Cadillac compact off of Delta because it was going to be less expensive," Doug Parks, General Motors' vice president of global product programs, told the Automotive News during the Detroit Auto Show in January of this year. That sentence, referring to early ATS discussions more than five years ago - a period when the automaker, and the industry, was struggling - reveals that Cadillac's highly acclaimed rear-wheel drive compact sedan almost never happened.
Parks revealed that that automaker actually built a 2.0-liter test mule, on GM's Delta platform (shared with the Chevrolet Cruze and Buick Verano) and tested it in Europe. While the prototype was "pretty darn good," according to Parks, the team realized that in order to compete against Mercedes-Benz and BMW it would have to invest in a new rear-wheel drive platform.
The resulting all-new Alpha platform would eventually underpin the Cadillac ATS, and many would argue that its balanced rear-wheel drive chassis is its single most important attribute. Thankfully, the Alpha's goodness won't stop with the ATS. The upcoming 2014 Cadillac CTS and the future Camaro will also share its architecture, meaning the Cimarron will remain a distant memory.

GM, Pilot will build EVgo fast chargers at 500 truck stops across U.S.

Thu, Jul 14 2022

All of our maps showing electric vehicle charging stations across the U.S. are going to need an update. Today, General Motors, Pilot and EVgo announced plans to work together on a nationwide DC fast charging network. The plan calls for 2,000 charging stalls that can deliver up to 350 kW to be installed at up to 500 Pilot and Flying J travel centers in the U.S. The goal is to have DC fast chargers available in 50-mile intervals across the country. The new charging stations will feature GM's "Ultium Charge 360" branding and "Pilot Flying J" logos but will not be limited to drivers of GM EVs. The plugs will use CCS connectors and be available to anyone. GM EV owners can take advantage of benefits, including the ability to make exclusive reservations, get discounts on charging costs and streamline the charging process with Plug and Charge and in-vehicle apps that can provide real-time charger availability. The first installation phase will take place in 2023, and "the bulk of the installations" should be completed by 2025, EVgo CEO Kathy Zoi said during a conference call with reporters announcing the plan. "We're gonna get going immediately and commence all of that engineering and planning stuff," she said. "We've got a pretty orderly plan." Pilot CEO Shameek Konar said the company expects the new EV charging stations to coexist with the current fuel infrastructure. "An average Pilot Flying J location is about 10 acres," Konar said. "This will be in addition to all of our gas pumps. The way I think about it is, this is a new source of energy that is going to coexist with gas for quite some time. We can debate how long, but we need to serve both groups of customers." Installing DC fast chargers at hundreds of Pilot's travel centers — aka truck stops — means there should be food, drinks, restrooms, WiFi and even showers available while you wait for an EV to charge. Pilot recently announced its “New Horizons” plan that will invest $1 billion in upgrading Pilot travel centers with more premium amenities, including expanded seating and lounge areas. While the exact amount of time it will take to charge an EV using these new stations will vary on the EV and its current state of charge, most EVs can refill from a low state of charge to around 80 percent in 20-30 minutes on a fast charger. The new stations are future-proofed to deliver up to 350 kW, a charge rate that few EVs today can handle.
