**no Reserve** Red Coupe, White Landau Top- Original Condition on 2040-cars

Year:1974 Mileage:67000 Color: has some imperfections here and there
Location:

Pasadena, California, United States

Pasadena, California, United States

I purchased this Southern California garaged car in 2011 from the estate of a lady who drove it for 37 years.  The mileage is documented by a folder of service receipts which reflects conscientious care over the decades.

This is a quality car with so much in its original condition.  You can see from the photos this car's original exterior, although not perfect, is brilliant.  I invested $1100 replacing the bumper inserts, having the paint meticulously matched.  I had a top mechanic go through the car, bumper to bumper, and give me his opinion on what it would take to make this car road worthy for a cross country trip.  He advised the engine and trans were strong and on his recommendation I invested $4200 of work under the car, on parts that wear with time versus miles.  This was followed by a new set of tires and battery.  In my two years of ownership I put about 2,000 gentle miles on this classic car, always garaging her.

The recommended work completed was an A/C compressor with rebuilt unit, rebuild dryer, flush condenser and evaporator, replace hoses, upper and lower control arm bushings, sway bar links and frame bushings, replace rear wheel cylinders, front and rear brake hoses and new wiper blades. The clock is inoperative and chrome detail piece is missing from antenna base.  Exterior has some imperfections here and there, and a very subtle surface scratch on the left rear quarter panel which has been buffed out.  There is absolutely no rust in the body panels.  The heater blows toasty and A/C is ice cold.  The trip meter sometimes gets stuck but the odometer keeps excellent track of its original 67,000 miles.  The AM/FM 8 track stereo system is a throwback to the 70's.

Cadillac CT6 PHEV battery shape a big departure for GM's plug-in hybrid tech

Thu, Apr 23 2015

Anyone with any familiarity with the electric powertrain details for the two General Motors plug-in hybrids will have noticed that the information we have about the newly announced Cadillac CT6 plug-in hybrid has a lot of numbers in common with the Chevy Volt and the Cadillac ELR, like the 18.4-kWh lithium-ion battery pack and an expected all-electric range of 37 miles. We also noticed that the announcement calls the plug-in CT6 hybrid an actual plug-in hybrid and not an "extended range electric vehicle (EREV)," which is what GM calls the Volt and the ELR. This, of course, means we needed to ask GM some questions. Donny Nordlicht from Cadillac communications told AutoblogGreen that while the Volt and CT6 batteries are both 18.4-kWh, the shape is completely different. In the Volt/ELR, the battery is T-shaped (see it here). The CT6 has four seats, with a tunnel running between the two in the rear, as you can see here, but the battery in the CT6 PHEV is "a cube-shaped pack, which is between rear seats and the trunk," Nordlicht said. "There is no pass through." GM has not yet released any technical schematics about this pack, but Nordlicht said that, "The CT6's advanced mixed-material platform was designed to accommodate the PHEV system by design so that it minimally intrudes on the cabin space." It also means that the CT6 can be ordered as an optional PHEV, while the Volt and ELR were purpose-built plug-ins. GM is also distinguishing between the EREV and PHEV powertrains in its vehicles from this point forward. "We are not discarding the EREV language," Nordlicht said. "The CT6 utilizes a two-motor system mated to a 2.0T 4-cylinder engine, which is an all-new system to Cadillac." We assume that the PHEV packs will use li-ion cells from LG Chem, just like the EREVs do, but Nordlicht did not answer our question on that point. As for other details about the CT6 PHEV – like production, full dimension, and pricing – we will just have to wait until closer to when the vehicle launches for those. Related Video:

2014 Cadillac XTS gets 410-hp twin-turbo V6

Tue, 14 May 2013

General Motors told us so back in March, but it is now official: The twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V6 announced for the 2014 Cadillac CTS will also join the options list for the 2014 Cadillac XTS. The LF3 engine puts out 410 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque in the XTS, however, which is 10 hp and 61 lb-ft down from its application in the CTS. It will be identifiable from the outside by a specific grille treatment and a badge on the decklid. The 3.6-liter V6 with 304 hp and 264 lb-ft holds steady as the standard engine, and both will be yoked to a six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters.
Also new for the front-wheel drive model for 2014 are updates that include electric power steering and optional Automatic Parking Assist that can maneuver the sedan into parallel parking spots. The three trims above standard - Luxury, Premium and Platinum - get Intellibeam headlights that automatically switch between high- and low-beam,
The four current trim levels remain but the list of optional extras for the higher specs grows with a rear-seat entertainment system equipped with DVD screens in the front seatbacks, memory settings for the front passenger seat and an armrest in the back seat fitted with radio and sunshade controls. The press release below has more info on all of the changes.

Cadillac scraps three-row CUV plans

Fri, 23 May 2014

Crossovers are one of the hottest automotive segments on the planet. Apparently, the idea of mixing the practicality of a station wagon with the looks of an SUV appeals to people whether they are in Cleveland or Shanghai because nearly every automaker is jumping into the market. So it was no surprise when early rumors suggested Cadillac was planning two, new CUVs to fit above and below the SRX. But things might have changed since then.
New rumblings indicate Caddy is taking a different route. Instead of two crossovers, only the compact is on the way, and the larger, three-row CUV on the Lambda platform to sit between the SRX and Escalade may be a goner. According to Ward's Auto, General Motors thinks that the other three-row, Lambda vehicles like the Buick Enclave and GMC Acadia compete too closely with the proposed Cadillac. The decision comes fairly close to the 2017 intended production date.
As far back as 2010, this Lambda-platform based CUV was considered highly likely for production. However, Cadillac Senior Vice President Bob Ferguson was somewhat cooler about it when he discussed the new crossover briefly last year. He said the model could use the Escalade name, despite its unibody chassis, but no decision had been made yet to actually produce it.
