1941 Cadillac Fleetwood 75 Imperial Touring Seven Passenger Limo One of 98 ever built with the rare electric divider window, which is in excellent working order! The actual known number still left in existence is unknown; however, according to historians, it is believed to be under 15! 65K ORIGINAL MILES! Clean and solid from top to bottom! This car handles and drives outstanding! If you have a feedback score of less than 10, please call before bidding. Call any time (216)548-8375 (Tim) Or (216)701-6495 (Jeff) This car was reportedly purchased new by the Wrigley Family (Chewing Gum), although we are still in search of supporting documentation. It was later placed in a museum in California, where it was on display for 25 years. It was then purchased by a man in California who recently sold it to a limousine company in Ohio, where it was used sparingly for special events before acquired by us. This Fleetwood series model is one of less than 800 built in 1941. One of only 98 limos with the divider window. It is powered by the original and very strong and smooth running 346 Flathead V8. It rides on a 136" wheelbase. It has a 3 speed manual transmission on the column. The drive-train is in outstanding condition and this car is ready for touring or show. Some of its unique characteristics include a working electric divider window in perfect condition, a set of auxiliary jump seats, working factory fog lights, front and rear radios (not working) and a leather chauffeurs compartment in near perfect original condition! The original leather seat just recently had the leather professionally conditioned and looks like new! This limo is in mostly original, un-restored condition. The paint is VERY presentable with only minor cracks/crazing and a few touch-ups on what is believed to be one partial repaint. Some of the paint appears original. It has a gorgeous deep black mirror like shine. The interior is completely original. The front carpet is worn. The rear carpet is in original beautiful condition. The seats, headliner, door panels, trim, etc... are in very good condition. All the lights, signals, horn, wipers and gauges work properly, with the exception of the fuel gauge. The electric divider window works beautifully as seen in the video. The exterior stainless is in very nice condition. Most of the chrome has been re-plated over the years and shows beautifully with only minor flaws. The glass is in very good condition. Just recently the limo had a full tune-up to include points, plugs and wires. The engine compartment is clean. The brakes, wheel cylinders, carburetor and generator have all recently been rebuilt. The flywheel has been resurfaced and the universal joints were replaced. The limo rides on new Coker Classic radial wide whites. New fender skirt seals and a new cowl to hood weather strip was also installed. This limo is easy to drive and runs like a Swiss watch! It goes down the road with ease, handles beautiful and shifts and stops as it should! We recently drove it in a "Home Days" parade for over 40 minutes at almost idle speed with no issues at all. Runs cool and strong! Mechanically extremely sound - Drive anywhere! This limo needs nothing but a new owner. THE PICTURES AND VIDEO SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES! |

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
Despite strong profits, GM still fighting flat market share
Fri, Jan 17 2014Looking at the progress General Motors has made since it entered bankruptcy, it's easy to forget that the company still has a long way to go before it's the juggernaut it once was. A recent report from Reuters points out that, while GM is making money, it isn't making any gains in terms of US market share. Quite the opposite, really. Consider this factoid: In 1963, nearly half of the cars sold in the United States were from Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick, GMC or Pontiac. Now, the company's US market share is stagnant at 17.9 percent. That same number is half of just Chevy's 1963 market share. This is all despite GM going on a binge replacing or updating its models. "Market share increases are not instantaneous," Mark Reuss told Reuters at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show. "We've got a lot of baggage. Don't underestimate what people though of us, or these brands, through these hardships and 30 years." The reasons for the stagnant market share are numerous. Reuters points out that retooling of factories and a focus on limiting incentives are both good things for profit, but not necessarily for market share. There's also the troubling turnover of the brand's marketing department. These issues don't change the fact that Chevrolet has lost 1.4 percent of its market share in two years, and that Cadillac - arguably GM's most improved brand overall - has lost 1.2 percent in the same period. Part of that can be blamed on GM's avoidance of fleet sales in favor of more profitable customer sales. "Our focus has really been on retail and that's where we've got the growth," said Alan Batey, GM's interim global marketing boss. "We want to grow GM and that means growing market share and profits, but it's not at all costs," Reuss said.

GM raises 2023 guidance on strong sales, higher profits
Tue, Apr 25 2023General Motors beat first-quarter profit estimates and raised its full-year earnings and cash-flow guidance after vehicle demand at the start of the year surpassed expectations. Its shares rose in premarket trading. GM made $2.21 a share in adjusted profit in the first quarter, compared to a consensus forecast of $1.72 a share. Revenue rose 11% to $39.99 billion, it said Tuesday, which was more than the $39.24 billion analysts expected. The stronger results stem from rising sales in the US, even in the face of higher interest rates and inflation. GM executives said demand was strong enough to revise 2023 guidance upward, boosting profit estimates for the year by $500 million to between $11 billion and $13 billion. “We did it with strong production and inventory discipline and consistent pricing,” GM Chief Financial Officer Paul Jacobson said on a call with journalists. “All in all, weÂ’re feeling confident about 2023.” The Detroit automaker raised per-share full-year guidance to between $6.35 and $7.35, up from $6 to $7 a share, and said free cash flow would also increase by $500 million to a range of $5.5 billion to $7.5 billion. GMÂ’s shares pared a gain of as much as 4.4% before the start of regular trading Tuesday, rising 3.5% to $35.50 as of 6:55 a.m. in New York. The stock was up 1.9% for the year as of the close on Monday. North American Strength The automakerÂ’s sales were particularly strong in North America, where first-quarter earnings rose before interest and taxes rose to $3.6 billion. Vehicle sales rose 18% to 707,000 in the region. Jacobson said the company originally expected to sell 15 million vehicles in the US this year, slightly less than the 15.5 million annualized rate automakers foresaw in the first quarter. North American demand was enough to offset a weak performance in China, GMÂ’s second-largest market. The automaker continues to struggle in the country, where its vehicle sales fell 25% to 462,000 vehicles in the quarter. Profits from its joint ventures in the market slumped 65% to $83 million. The market has struggled overall in the wake of Covid-19 restrictions and foreign automakers have had to overcome a growing preference for Chinese brands by competing on price, squeezing profit margins. The situation in China probably wonÂ’t significantly improve until the second half of the year, according to Jacobson. GM remains on target to sell 150,000 electric vehicles this year, the CFO said.
