If you were at the Spring Grand Rod Run in Pigeon Forge this past weekend you may have seen this car cruising the strip. I've had no trouble with the car mechanically since the generator was rebuilt two weeks ago. The car was very popular among the crowd and was the only pink Cadillac at Rod Runs. Here's a short video made driving into town>>>>  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VGdwYUBRUw
There was a finished 54 Sedan Cadillac there with the documented original bill of sale, and 41K original miles that sold at the show for 40,000 dollars. I would absolutely expect this pink 57 Coupe Deville to bring much much more finished.

 

Here are some videos >>>>>    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EygB_nq_8GE

I am listing this car for my uncle. He has restored the car and says that it is still not entirely finished. This was originally purchased new here in town by a local lady that was very well known. The local newspapers are doing a story on it for being the 'first pink Cadillac' in town that was bought new for cash by a local bootlegger. I will describe what I can about it, but encourage you to call him if you're seriously interested. Eight65 - Two78 - Zero377 and leave msg or send me and email and I will pass it along to him. Please no spam and only serious inquiries!!

He describes as follows: The car has just over 45,000 original miles on it. The engine, tranny, brakes, body, interior .. pretty much the entire car has been redone, ALL of the power windows work as does the seat also!!! The color is original Dusty Rose Pink from Cadillac and fabric are back to as it was in 1957 when it was bought new. He says it still needs some finishing and it is not a show car, but a great candidate. This car turns heads everywhere he drives it.

The car still needs.. some paint touch up, signal lights aren't working,  detailing, the rear bumper and tail fin crests are redone and sharp, but other pieces will need some more chroming to be show quality. One door panel was never finished due to a negligent upholstery shop, but the panel is there and on the car, and extra SMS original  OEM fabric is included for finishing. The front windshield has a straight crack down.. as he tells me is common to these cars. Some door glasses were recut and replaced, but not all. "J" seals were never installed. The "V"s weren't replaced with new ones, just put on for driving purposes. Door sills were not replaced either.

The GOOD is that the engine was completely rebuilt with everything new or reconditioned by machine shop (around 3000) and runs as it should. The water pump, starter and carb were all replaced or rebuilt. Fuel tank was relined with liquid sealer from Kanter Auto and all fuel lines, and fuel pump was installed new. All the brakes are new. The interior redone all but the one door panel, including headliner, seats, carpet, and kick panels. The seats were redone with Oem fabric from SMS so the car looks like it did when bought! New trunk and door rubber. This car is being driven, and has receipts from all the way back to 1957. NOTE!!! The car comes with two types of ownership papers, the ORIGINAL bill of sale from the local dealership.. which is signed by the original owner, AND the matching tag receipt and tag from when the car was placed in storage in 1971. He says that if a current title is needed, he can easily do so, but he feels that will severely diminish the value of the car! That's where it stayed until the original owner passed away in her 90s over 14 years ago. That's when my uncle purchased it and it has been under restoration ever since. He is currently having health issues and the car has to go. He says he invested almost 23,000 dollars in it and HUNDREDS of man hours, but the car has to go!! So make offers, and if you're a serious buyer, you may end up taking this gorgeous piece of history home!!!

There is a lot more I'm sure you'll need to know that I can't answer, so CALL the owner!! This car is a surprisingly preserved documented piece of Americana! The ORIGINAL pink Cadillac Coupe Deville! I have told you everything he told me about this car. I can say that the car looks fantastic and everyone goes crazy about it!! Give him a call and he can fill you in on all the technical information that I don't understand. Thanks for looking!!

Cadillac SRX likely to see next-gen built in China

Tue, 08 Jul 2014

Here's some shocking news to no one: People love crossovers, including those living in China. Since introducing the Cadillac SRX there in 2009, the model's sales have gone through the roof. Now, the brand is considering moving some production of the next-generation model in China to eliminate import tariffs and make it an even bigger player in the market.
According to a recent report in The Wall Street Journal, the crossover is leading Cadillac's Chinese growth, despite its US-equivalent price of over $67,000 after the country's high import tariffs. The CUV's sales are up 23 percent there so far this year, and it's responsible for over 40 percent of the brand's sales. John Stadwick, General Motors' VP of sales, service and marketing in China, told the WSJ that GM could "very possibly" build the next-gen model there.
The SRX is Cadillac's golden goose in China, and it just keeps pushing the brand's sales forward. "It's the vehicle that took us out of being a small niche in the market," said David Caldwell, Cadillac Communications Manager, to Autoblog. Before the CUV, Caddy was selling a little over 20,000 cars a year there, but partially thanks to the crossover's success, the brand sold 50,000 vehicles last year and could reach 60,000 this year. "The SRX is the most popular Cadillac in that market," he said.

2021 Cadillac XT6 adds 2.0-liter turbo and new base trim in second year

Mon, Jun 29 2020

The 2021 Cadillac XT6 has been announced, and the three-row crossover is going through a few notable changes in its second model year. There’s a new base trim and base engine, and Cadillac has added tech features to improve the experience. Starting with the new engine: ItÂ’s the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that was initially introduced in the XT4 as the base motor. Power output is the same as the compact crossover at 237 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. ItÂ’s paired with the nine-speed automatic transmission and comes with front-wheel drive as standard — all-wheel drive is a $2,000 option. That engine only comes with the new base trim level: Luxury. Every other trim receives the 3.6-liter V6. The new Luxury trim (pictured above) is being added to the lineup as a base model to compliment the Sport and Premium Luxury trims. This will be the cheapest and most basic of the XT6s, but you can still option all-wheel drive. Features include 18-inch wheels, the eight-inch touchscreen infotainment system, black leatherette seats (heated and powered in front), brushed aluminum trim, tri-zone climate control and a number of other smaller extras along with a suite of driver assistance technologies. Cadillac is also adding wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto to the lineup as standard equipment — they were standard previously but required the traditional wired connection. ThereÂ’s also a new 20-inch wheel for the Sport model, and three new color options: Dark Moon Blue Metallic, Wilder and Infrared Tintcoat. The XT6 LuxuryÂ’s base price is $48,990, including the destination charge. ThatÂ’s a fair cut below the 2021 Premium Luxury ($53,790) and the Sport ($58,190) trims, but you are losing out on the additional equipment and luxury those trims offer. Cadillac says the updated 2021 XT6 will land in dealerships this fall. Related video:

Chevy, GMC have electric pickups coming. Is Cadillac next?

Fri, Jan 7 2022

GMC already has an uber-expensive electric pickup in the Hummer EV. By now you've no doubt seen the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV. It's a pickup. It's electric. It looks a little bit like an Avalanche. Hmm. You know what else was a pickup that looked a little bit like an Avalanche? Why, the Cadillac Escalade EXT, of course.  Cadillac Escalade EV-T yes or no?https://t.co/R1AXThRzIG@therealautoblog @Cadillac — Byron "Don't do anything Byron says. Ever" Hurd (@Byron_AB) January 7, 2022 So, hypothetically, if Cadillac were to build an Escalade EXT with an upmarket interior, Super Cruise, a minimum of 300 miles of range, 10,000 pounds of towing capacity, a locking frunk and 5-passenger seating, plus all of the nifty doodads and gadgets we've already seen on the Silverado ... would it sell?  OK, this isn't entirely hypothetical. In fact, I received a survey from Cadillac this morning asking just that. It's an interesting question. And it's one we're putting to you, the readers. So, what say you? Cadillac Escalade EV-T? Yes or no? Related video:
