No car demands attention like the beautiful 1959 Cadillac Coupe de Ville.  In stunning glass-black paint with new black and white interior, the most desired color combination, this car is a true classic.

A recent frame on restoration has just been completed including:

Paint -- The car was stripped to the bare metal and primed with Dupont 6155 Variprime self-etch primer.  It was then coated with three coats of 33430 Dupont high build primer, sealed with 42470 Dupont sealer and then painted with Dupont Chrmopremiere black base coat.  It was clear coated with three coats of Dupont 72500.  I then sanded and buffed to a glass finish.  This paint job is very high end with laser straight body work.

 Interior -- All new black molded carpet.  The seats were covered in original "black-silver" fabric from S&S Fabrics.  All new foam and burlap installed into the seats.  This black and white interior looks and feels classy.

Glass -- The glass is all original and in excellent condition.  All of the power windows work excellently.

Weather Strip -- All weather strips are new from Soft Seal.  This includes the ones in the trunk, doors and roof rails.

Engine Compartment -- The engine compartment is nicely detailed and original.  The original 390 engine runs great and has a new water pump.  All of the engine fluids have been changed.

Trunk -- This has the original float mat, cardboard siding, spare tire, and jack assembly.  The trunk floor is covered with 3m black, sound-deadening pads.

Exhaust -- The exhaust is all new with aluminized pipe running through X frame.

Stainless Steel Molding -- all have been removed from the car and polished to excellent condition.  New molding clips were used to attach them back on to the car.  

Frame -- This is solid and in fantastic condition.

Chrome Bumpers -- These are all original and in driver condition.  They shine nicely but have some minor aging to them.  Chrome door handles and mirrors are brand new.

Fender Skirts -- These have new rubber moldings and have been repainted as well, although they were not on the car at the time of the pictures.  They fit nicely and add to the overall classiness of the car.

AM Radio -- This does work well, but the power antenna does not work.

Tires -- These are all new 15 inch radial.

Lights -- All work inside and out, including the turn signals.

This 1959 Cadillac is a true collector's car and a great investment.  For further questions, please contact me at (937) 605-1816 between 9:00am-9:00pm ET.

Full payment of cash or wire transfer is necessary before the car is given.  No scams, please, I do not have time!  Only serious buyers, no tire kickers and no traders.  You are welcome to inspect the vehicle in person by appointment only.  The car is located in Springfield, Ohio and will be sold only as is/where is.  The buyer is responsible for the pick-up.

This is a very rare opportunity to get a car of this quality.  Thank you for your interest.

GM recalls 2014 Cadillac CTS recall

Wed, 02 Jul 2014

No, that headline isn't a typo - General Motors has reportedly issued a recall for one of its own recalls. The recall of a recall affects the recall of the 2014 Cadillac CTS, which wasn't supposed to be recalled. Except that the 2014 CTS was supposed to be recalled. Oh no, now we've gone cross-eyed.
Allow us to explain. The redesigned, third-generation CTS Sedan does not feature a faulty ignition switch, while the 2014 CTS Coupe and Wagon, which are based on the second-gen car, do. And as it turns out, there are only 264 of those vehicles included in last week's 8.2-million-unit, ignition-switch recall. Model year 2003 to 2013 CTS Sedans, Coupes and Wagons are still covered.
It's not entirely clear how this, frankly, colossal mistake was made, although we're betting GM is rapidly trying to get to the bottom of this embarrassing issue. Regardless, let's just take what solace we can in there being one less vehicle that GM has recalled this year.

GM Recalling Another 2.7 Million Vehicles In Five Separate Campaigns

Thu, May 15 2014

The recalls keep rolling in from General Motors, evidently keen to avoid repeating the mistakes of the ignition-switch debacle and clean house. This time they're all coming at once, with five separate recalls announced together covering approximately 2.7 million vehicles. The largest of the five actions involves over 2.4 million units of the previous-generation Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura in order to fix brake light wiring harness, which have been found to be susceptible to corrosion. The recall is separate from the 56k Aura sedans which GM recently recalled over faulty shift cables, not to mention the previous massive recall of 1.3 million vehicles – some of them the same models – but appears to have resulted from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation that started with the G6 almost a year ago. The second-largest campaign involves the 2014 Chevy Malibu, specifically those fitted with GM's 2.5-liter engine and stop/start system, approximately 140,000 examples of which has been found to have problematic brakes. The issue does not appear to be connected to the recall of 8k Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans (also involving brake woes) which we reported upon last week. Four crashes have been reported in such models, but GM admits it's not yet clear if the problem was a contributing factor in the accidents. A further 112k Corvette models from the 2005-2007 model years are being called in for problems with their low-beam headlamps resulting from a flexing relay control circuit wire that's not meant to bend. GM says it is "aware of several hundred complaints" about this issue, but notes that there have been no reports of related accidents. In addition, over 19k examples of Cadillac CTS from the 2013 and 2014 model years are being recalled over windshield wipers that might not work after a jump start. Finally, GM is also bringing in 477 examples of its 2014 Chevy Silverado, Tahoe and GMC Sierra (though not the Yukon) to fix a problem with a tie rod in its steering rack. As ever, all recall repairs will be performed free of charge, and GM is now estimating that recall-related actions this quarter will result in an estimated $200-million charge against its second-quarter earnings. Read the full announcement from GM below for further details.

Online Find Of The Day: 2008 Cadillac XLR picks up where Excalibur left off

Thu, 23 May 2013

We try very, very hard to keep snark away from creations like the one you see here. After all, someone poured plenty of enthusiasm, time and money into turning a 2008 Cadillac XLR into a modern interpretation of the new-old cars typically done by cottage builders like Excalibur and Clénet. Even so, it's hard not to wince when you set an eye on this machine. With its wheelbase stretched to accommodate the extra bodywork, goofy sidewalls and upkicked nose (examine it in profile, it looks slightly bent in the middle), this "neoclassic" takes whatever was loveable about the Cadillac underneath and buries it in a tacky grave.
Miraculously, the engine bay has been left unmolested, which means the retractable hardtop convertible still features a 4.6-liter Northstar V8 engine good for 320 horsepower. If only that were enough to outrun its shame. If, for some reason, you feel like taking this thing home, Harry Kaufmann Motorcars of Milwaukee says it can be yours for a paltry $74,998. We wish were joking. Check it out here.
