Hello and thank you for your interest!!
This car has been in Sunny San Diego its entire life!
The body is extremely  straight with original cardboard and jack .Ive owned this car for about 6 years and its time for a new home.The motor is currently out of the car and has been setting in a box from the machine shop.Every single piece of the motor has been blasted painted with the correct Cadillac blue and wet sanded and polished.Each piece is in a bag with the number of bolts labeled on a zip lock bag.The frame has been painted the hood hinges are the correct cadmium gold This started out as a 100 percent OEM restoration.Most all of the under carriage has been painted and detailed in a stock restoration fashion.All new front end rebuild,ball joints upper and lower,idler arm etc.The transmission has been dissembled and ready for rebuild.I have $2500 in the motor alone!All the glass is good except the drivers side window.A 30 dollar ebay item.The radio works,the electric antenna works the power seats work wonderfully.I all of the stainless is in excellent condition  and has been polished at one  time.The car has surface rust which comes off with steel wool but will need a paint job.I personally like the original patina.My price may seem a bit high but this is a solid car threw and threw.There is alot of junk out there and you can pick up a beater for around 4k and put another 3 into the body work to get as straight as this one is.390 motors generally run minimum 2k to have rebuilt.The motor specs are below.I would insist on speaking with you about this car before you bid.

block~30 over
pistons~brand new
rings~brand new
crank turned~10
cam reground by Schneider racing cam here in san diego with very mild RV grind
bearings made in usa brand new
heads!ported and polished/new leaded valves both intake and exhaust/decked
new gasket kit
By the way all the parts i have bought for this motor were either american made or new old stock.Most rebuild kits sold for the 390 are from Korea or china.Look into it!
The 61 cadillac are getting very rare and most from what ive seen get shipped over to our friends in Australia and over seas.

comes with extra back glass~worth 450.
all of the stainless inside the car has been cleaned and polished.
Obviously this is a builder but the best bones out there and your half way there.
This is a true american classic and i will be posting many more pictures in the next few days.



Call me at 619-602-6622 would love to speak with you.

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")

Cadillac ATS coupe and sedan get Midnight Editions

Sun, Jul 19 2015

Horror stories and fairy tales make a mint by having the scariest things happen at midnight, but automakers make a mint by marketing midnight. Chevrolet busted out a Silverado Midnight Edition early this year, followed shortly thereafter by an Impala Midnight Edition. In between those two we got the Cadillac CTS Midnight Edition, and now comes an ATS following in the zero-dark-thirty tradition, according to GM Inside News. The ATS Midnight Edition will add $1,695 to the sedan price and $600 to the coupe. For that cash outlay you get black chrome on the grille, around the windows, and on the rear fascia, 18-inch "After Midnight" wheels, "sueded microfiber" trim on the steering wheel and shifter, plus the Cold Weather Package with a heated steering wheel and heated front seats. Just those few exterior changes make a big difference up front, increasing the appeal and aggression of the sports sedan without being ostentatious. You can't go dark with just any old ATS, though. The package is limited to rear- and all-wheel-drive versions of the Performance trim. And the color palette is reduced to four hues: Crystal White Tricoat, Red Obsession Tintcoat, Phantom Gray Metallic, and Black Raven. The three possible interior combos are Light Platinum with Jet Black accents, Morello Red with Jet Black accents, and Jet Black with Jet Black accents.

Cadillac CTS wins 2014 Motor Trend Car of the Year [w/video]

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

For the second time, the Cadillac CTS has been named Motor Trend's Car of the Year. After winning the COTY crown for 2008, the new-for-2014 CTS outdid the other two finalists for Car of the Year honors, the Mazda3 and its corporate cousin, the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray.
What's notable about the Caddy's victory, though, is how it simply brushed off its competition. Both the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and BMW 5 Series failed to make the finalist's bracket, leaving the CTS to claim victory. "It had to beat [Mercedes and BMW] on style, on performance, on comfort, and on quality. It has," Motor Trend said in its COTY recap for the CTS.
The team at Motor Trend praised the CTS chassis, calling it "fantastic," and citing weight advantage the Caddy has over the competition. There was also praise heaped on the car's engines, with the 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder getting nods of approval from the MT team. The team also raved about the VSport model and its twin-turbocharged V6, magnetic shocks and other performance accoutrements.
