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!!

Petrolicious eats up Rita Hayworth's 1953 Cadillac Ghia

Wed, Feb 11 2015

The automotive industry has seem some wonderful transoceanic collaborations between America and Italy, from the Ford-powered De Tomasos of the 1960s to the alliance between Fiat and Chrysler today. Of course it's also seen unfortunate experiments in between like the Chrysler TC by Maserati and the Pininfarina-bodied Cadillac Allante. But before any of those, there was a beautiful tradition of rebodying American steel at the hands of Italian carrozzerie. And this could easily be among the most gorgeous of them all. It's a Cadillac Series 62 from 1953 with bodywork by Ghia. It's one of only two made, and has a star-studded history. The car was purchased by Aly Khan, prince of the Nizari Ismaili muslims and Pakistan's ambassador to the United Nations, for his wife... who just so happened to be the inimitable Rita Hayworth. They split up, but she held on to the car. Today it's part of the permanent collection at the Petersen Automotive Museum in LA, so the videographical artisans at Petrolicious went by to check it out. You'll want to as well in the five-minute short above.

New Cadillac ELR ad more educational, less controversial than 'Poolside'

Mon, Mar 24 2014

Cadillac's first TV commercial for its ELR plug-in hybrid, Poolside, was a smash hit, in that a lot of people saw and talked about it. The 60-second spot didn't say the car was a plug-in, took potshots at the work ethic of all non-Americans and has raked in over a million views on YouTube (you can add one more here). Caddy's new ELR video will get a lot less media attention, but that's exactly the point. Cadillac claims it was happy with the way actor Neil McDonough strutted his way into the controversial ELR discussion. This time around, though, the coupe gets promoted in a more traditional way: with information about the car and what it can do - you know, drive on electricity, capture braking energy into the battery, go further on gas power when needed, those kinds of things – courtesy of GM's executive chief engineer for electrified vehicles, Pam Fletcher. The tone of the video has not been changed because of the Poolside controversy. David Caldwell, manager of Cadillac communications, tells AutoblogGreen that the new video is not destined for TV and is completely different because it's meant for a different audience. "It doesn't have any direct relation to Poolside," he says. "TV advertising is not necessarily the heart of marketing something like the ELR. Notwithstanding the fact that we had a very thought-provoking ad [laughs]." "We definitely have a need to communicate what the ELR is" - Cadillac's David Caldwell The way you reach out to people via the web is different than the mass-media techniques used in spots like Poolside during big TV events (it aired during the Winter Olympics). The two video spots are different because you need to offer different information in different ways, for example having an ELR website as well as an iPad filled with ELR information at the dealership. For Cadillac, TV is "not going to be the predominant methodology," used to sell the ELR, Caldwell said, "the web is closer to what you need to do to reach people. We definitely have a need to communicate what the ELR is. It's not television advertising at all." Caldwell said a handful of other short videos similar to the new one will go live in the near future, showcasing design and powertrain aspects of the car. Keep an eye out for them – just don't look for them on TV. You can watch the new video below.

Tue, Feb 27 2018

Getting a new car is an amazing experience. The fresh new scent, the barely touched interior, the double digit miles on your odometer, and... the depreciation once it leaves the car dealers lot? Maybe not that last one. To save you from the hurt of a quickly depreciating new car, we collected 8 of the fastest depreciating cars in America. And here's a surprise, one of them is a Toyota.
