This 1958 Cadillac Coupe DeVille is fantastic. The color change from white to the deep red was done back in around 1980 and still has excellent gloss finish today. This restoration has had a lot of years and still shows like it was just recently done. The car was original white with rose interior. Now the red and white combination give it fantastic crowd appeal.

The car was driven by the owner to many shows in through the 80’s. As he got older, he decided to pass the car along to the next caretaker. I was able to purchase the car from him for one of my car-guy buddies and it ended up being put away in the early 1990’s until now. So, it came out of being privately held and came to me to be gone-over, detailed and made ready for a new caretaker.

 I added the modern power brake booster conversion, rebuilt the brake system and pulled the engine apart to freshen it up. Heads were serviced with new valves and all the related engine parts checked, rebuilt or replaced.  The headliner had some small damage so I replaced that as well.

You can see the car looks amazing. My niece asked to use it at her wedding a few weeks ago. I drove it up to the wedding 60 to 70 MPH and it drove like a Cadillac!

 There are new tires on the NICE Saber Wheels. The spare in the trunk is not a Saber, but I MAY have an extra to include. The chrome and potmetal are nice- The front bumper upper ends have some small poor spots where the water settles when draining off the hood. LOOK CLOSE at photos!

 Exterior trim and emblems are very good, the rear trunk plastic insert is cracked. Look Close! Inside trunk is carpeted in red with the side covers also in red. And a spare tire cover in white. The original 58 Cadillac jack, wood wedge and jacking instructions are in place.

Floors, chassis and rockers are the BEST I have ever seen on a 58! NO rust damage and NO repaired floors. Never undercoated! This is wonderfully original metal on this Cadillac.

Original Air Conditioning is all in place, BUT I have not charged it to see if it works. YES< the compressor clutch works. This car was originally ordered with air suspension but is now on springs.

All the windows work great. The 6-way power seat works fine. Heater works, clock does not. Antenna and radio—Good question! I need to go check these.

I have MANY photos I am HAPPY to send. I also have a road-test video. I would like to have them here, but I don't know how to get them attached to my listing.

Please ask for ANY details, I know how difficult it can be to come see the car, so I am very willing to send you ANY information or photos you would like to see. I know how some sellers make it impossible to get information from, not me—You ask, I provide.

I sure would like to hang on to this one, but I already have so MANY cars, I don’t have time to enjoy most of them. I know this car has been put away far too long (not by me) and deserves better. I want to know it will go to a good active car-guy that will get it out and drive it as it should be.


I do have the car advertised locally and have offers. But I want to be sure that all these guys have a chance and don’t want any hard feelings here, so I told them all they have to watch the listing and decide if they think the offers they have made are good enough for this Excellent 1958 Coupe DeVille.

Lansing builds its millionth Cadillac

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

Cadillacs are built at plants across North America. The Escalade is assembled in Texas, the SRX in Mexico and the XTS in Ontario. But the bulk of Cadillac's lineup - or the smaller members of the family, at least - are built in Michigan. And while the upcoming ELR will be built alongside the Chevy Volt at the Detroit/Hamtramck facility (which incidentally opened with the Cadillac Eldorado back in '86), the majority of those Cadillacs built in Michigan are handled by the Lansing Grand River Assembly Plant.
In fact, Lansing Grand River just celebrated its millionth Cadillac built. The landmark millionth vehicle is a new 2014 CTS sedan in Red Obsession Tintcoat. The facility opened in 2001 and has built Cadillacs almost exclusively since then, assembling the CTS and ATS model lines, though in a couple of years it will also handle production of the Chevy Camaro.

Weekly Recap: Auto execs face life in prison for recall delays under proposed legislation

Sat, 09 Aug 2014



The stiff punishments are part of broader transportation legislation, but clearly McCaskill has automakers in her sights.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill threw down the gauntlet this week, proposing a bill that could send auto executives to prison for life if they were found to have delayed a recall. She also wants to eliminate the limit for fines for auto safety violations, which are currently capped at $35 million.

Cadillac's Butler announces surprise departure

Mon, 05 Aug 2013

The Detroit Free Press is reporting that Cadillac's vice president of global strategic development, Don Butler, has resigned. Butler has held the position since April, after a term as vice president of US marketing for General Motor's luxury brand.
As the report explains, the timing here is pretty unfortunate for Cadillac. Butler is the third high-profile member of Cadillac's brass to depart in recent months, following the firing of US sales boss Chase Hawkins and the pending departure of Susan Docherty. Cadillac spokesman David Caldwell told the Detroit paper, "Bob [Ferguson]," global boss for Cadillac, "and other leaders asked him to stay on. Don's here in the office today - and told our team that his decision is purely on a personal level. After three years of putting everything into Cadillac, he is stepping away for some personal time, and to consider new avenues in his life."
Butler says his decision is part of a decision to "recalibrate, reassess my priorities." Whatever the reason, it's an unpleasant surprise for Cadillac, which has been on a surge in 2013, with 30-percent jump in sales on the heels of the hot-selling ATS.
