RARE 1969 CADILLAC FLEETWOOD BROUHAM, REAL CLASSIC VINTAGE RIDE, 44,000 UNMOLESTED MILES.
Low Reserve for Fast Sale........... If you're looking for a great running older car, and an easy restoration, this is it. 472ci V8 engine. Two owner car with previous owner for over 43 years. They had several cars and trucks, this was the weekend ride. All in original condition, nothing changed up or molested. This was a recent buy for me. After pick up, drove home over 100 miles with no issues what so ever. Transmission smooth, no leaks or over heating. I got the car with plans on easy interior restoration, then drive daily and work on the rest as I went along. However, things changed quickly (financial) and need to recoup costs and regroup. So, off she goes. Hopefully to someone who can easily restore and bring back as she should be. Who knows, add a rockin' sound system and a chandelier and it can be just like Snoop Dogs 69 "Brown Sugar". Ha..... Over all, for a car that's 45 years, she's in great shape. Before I drove home, I installed new battery, (850cca), updated alternator with regulator and brake booster with new master brake cylinder. Outside of an oil change and gas, that's all I've had to do to start driving. (-note, I bench bled the master, but could not bleed complete system, and probably should be done before putting into daily service). This is a southern car and shows well. No rust on body panels, doors or hood. All solid floors and trunk. No welding of floor pans to replace. Interior doors and jams rust free. Good solid car. The only area I've scene any rust at all is an area on trunk lid. Small strip that should be spotted in pics and easily fixed. Interior door panels will need restore or replaced, all due to summer sun and heat. Door handles there and working. Tires have good tread and look like a recent add, however, are still older. I've tried to give the best description on the pros and cons of the car, but if I've forgot any, I'll try to add later. If you'd like to see the car before bidding, call for directions. Located in Maryville, TN. About 15 minutes south of Knoxville Airport. (McGee Tyson). Also listed locally, so may end early. But if bidding is ongoing, I'll leave auction going. You can reach me between 10 AM and 10 PM at 865-640-6543, on road a lot, so if no answer, leave message and call Will be returned. Good luck bidding, you'll enjoy this car, easy restore. Take care, Will. |

Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?
Sun, Jul 9 2023The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric. Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands. If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) — unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla. Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor. Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have: Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners — those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port — will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 — eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.
Seinfeld and Don Rickles stretch out in classic Caddy for latest CiCGC
Thu, 04 Jul 2013It's no surprise that for the newest episode of Jerry Seinfeld's Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, airing for the first time on the 4th of July, that a couple of American classics are involved. You'll Never Play the Copa unites Seinfeld with legendary curmudgeon Don Rickles, driving around in a stunner of a 1958 Cadillac Eldorado Seville in Gleneagles Green (upholstery wrapped in Grandma-spec plastic, of course).
Mr. Rickles really steals the show in this one - maybe our favorite CiCGC to date - though the Eldorado plays a strong-jawed costarring role, for sure. Stories about Ronald Regan, Frank Sinatra, Billy Graham and, of course, Herkie Styles are more than worth the price of admission. Check it out below.
Cadillac CTS-V spotted with big exhaust, new grille?
Thu, 20 Feb 2014If you thought Cadillac was content to leave its twin-turbocharged Vsport as the range-topping CTS, think again. Behold, our first good glimpse at the next-generation Cadillac CTS-V sedan, sporting more aggressive styling (somewhere under there), meaty quad-exhaust pipes, and what very well could be a new face for the V-badged Caddies.
Creating an all-new grille design seems like an awful lot of work just for a prototype, so it's very possible that the vertical-bar treatment you see here could make its way into production. Our spy photographers have pointed out that they've seen this same sort of grille treatment on prototypes for the smaller ATS-V sedan, and we've heard V-series models may soon have greater differentiation from the standard vehicles that sired them - that seems especially necessary if Cadillac insists on expanding this whole Vsport range.
Regardless of how its front end looks, the CTS-V ought to be a real monster. Industry sources say we can expect to see a supercharged version of General Motors' 6.2-liter V8 under the Caddy's hood, and considering the current car already makes 556 horsepower and 551 pound-feet of torque, we wouldn't be surprised to see a decent increase in both of those numbers. After all, one of the CTS-V's main competitors, the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG, is currently putting out 550 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque. Could this mean a 600-hp Cadillac is on the horizon?
