Being offered up for your consideration is a 1951 Cadillac Fleetwood Series 75 Limousine, also called a 7 passenger sedan. Out of a total production of Cadillac's in 1951, GM only made 1090 of this model of Limousine, style number 7523. They came with a 160 horse power, 331ci V8 engine and a 4 speed Hydra-Matic transmission. Even after 60 plus years this car still has it's number matching engine and transmission. Paper work has been found that puts this car in Tucson, Arizona in 1979 and I believe it has spent its life in Arizona. No rust found anywhere. Nothing better then an Arizona rust free car.
Looking at the pics you can tell it is now a restoration in progress. A complete professional restoration was started about 10 years back. About two years into it, health and money issues came up and the restoration stopped. For the last 8 years this car has been setting, covered up, in a climate controlled storage area and is just now being offered up for sale. During the restoration and storage time we have found that some parts have came up missing. The missing parts, bumpers, grill pieces, tail light are not unique to this model and can be acquired easily. The engine has not been started recently but it does turn easily by hand.
The work that has already been done on this car is nothing short of perfection. The body has not been off the frame but everything connected to the body has been removed, cleaned and painted like a mirror in black. Every area of this car, under hood, under the trunk, door jams, dash and even the drip rail areas have the same deep deep shine as the main body. A capital "EXCELLENT" is the only word to express the quality of this paint. No orange peel anywhere on this car and you can't miss the depth of the shine in my pics. It reflects everything in the garage. There are although, 2 chips and a small area on the bottom of the driver side rear door that will need paint touch up and repair. Along with all the paint and body work that has already been done, comes a complete set of new tinted glass and a new set of 4 electric window regulators to replace the original hydraulic style used in those days.(All hydraulic parts are also included) Another costly part of this restoration, that has already been completed, is all 30 plus pieces of stainless trim for the outside. They have all been professionally straighten, if needed, and show polished. The brakes and hydraulic system, along with all the wheel bearings have also been redone. New tires and exhaust system are also included in the already done items. Not sure what the total dollar amount already invested in this car is. I can say for sure, the paint job alone would cost you between $15,000 and $20,000 today. A lot has been done.....a lot is left for you.....finish it your way and have a really special ride.
I am sure I have forgotten something important to you as a bidder, so please ask any and all questions you feel necessary before bidding. Glad to answer them and more pics are also available.

2016 Cadillac CT6 has arrived
Wed, Apr 1 2015We have known for a while that the 2015 New York Auto Show would mark the debut of Cadillac's latest flagship model. But after months of waiting as Caddy slowly revealed details, the 2016 Cadillac CT6 has finally arrived. The sedan is a technological tour de force for the brand and inaugurates a long list of new technologies. The CT6 will begin production at the Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly plant in late 2015 and will go on sale with three engine options. Caddy won't release final figures yet, but based on preliminary numbers, we know the base 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder will make 265 horsepower. Stepping up to the newly revised 3.6-liter V6 will net buyers an estimated 335 hp, and finally there will be the 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 with an output of around 400 hp. All of these engines will be mated to eight-speed automatic transmissions, and six-cylinder models will get standard all-wheel drive that will be able to constantly vary the power sent to the front wheels. Carrying those powertrains is the new, aluminum-intensive Omega architecture. In addition to the lightweight metal making up the platform, the entire exterior also uses it to provide an estimated curb weight of less than 3,700 pounds. The decision to shed mass makes the CT6 a featherweight in its class – for comparison, the lightest, six-cylinder Audi A8 weighs 4,365 pounds. The sedan rides on a 122.4-inch wheelbase and is 204 inches long. That makes the Cadillac about 1.3 inches shorter than the smallest BMW 7 Series, but the Caddy is projected to tip the scales at less than both the big Bimmer and even the 5 Series, too. Cadillac wants the CT6 to be a luxury sedan that drivers can enjoy. In addition to the low weight, there's an available Active Chassis System throughout the range with rear-wheel steering and Magnetic Ride Control. When combined with the all-wheel-drive system, it means every corner of the car is both driving and steering the vehicle. Inside, the CT6 offers a ton of tech and luxury. Drivers are held in massaging, leather seats, and rear passengers also get adjustable chairs that are heated and cooled. Quad-zone climate controls keep everyone comfortable. Plus, in addition to the 34-speaker Bose audio system and streaming rearview mirror, there are features like a 10.2-inch CUE infotainment system with a capacitive touchscreen and console-mounted touchpad. The display also shows a 360-degree view outside and can even record video when the security system is activated.
2016 Cadillac CT6 shows crisp sense of style in leaked images
Tue, Mar 31 2015You're looking at the 2016 Cadillac CT6, aided by the almost inevitable internet-aided leak, ahead of its debut at the New York Auto Show this week. As you can see, the overall shape is straight-edged and aggressive, and overall in keeping with what we've seen from Cadillac over the last several years. High-tech lighting clusters extend from the fender peaks all the way down in what appear to be LED strips toward the lower fascia and its rectangular fog lights. A suitably massive grille encrusted in chrome boasts one of the larger Wreath and Crest badges we've ever witnessed on a car. Under that sharply creased hood will sit a twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 engine with 400 horsepower at its disposal, according to Cadillac, mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. A naturally aspirated 3.6-liter V6 will also be available, we're told. We may wish for an edgier range-topping sedan from Cadillac, but it's not really fair to draw any real conclusions from just one leaked image. In other words, stay tuned, 'cause the rest of the story won't be far behind.
