THE BUMPERS ARE ABOVE AVERAGE NO RECHROMING NEEDED UNLESS YOUR SUPER PICKY. INTERIOR WISE THE FRONT SEAT NEEDS TO BE FINISHED AND THE REAR SEAT MATERIAL IS BRITTLE BUT NO TEARS ETC...ALL ELSE IS DONE. MECHANICALLY THE A/C WORKS BUT LEAKS DOWN.I ASURE YOU IT'S WORKED WELL "AT TIMES!!" THE ENGINE IS MEANT FOR REGULAR LEADED GAS.I USUALLY RUN 100 GRADE AVIATION FUEL WITH LUBE THAT WAY THE ENGINE BURNS CLEAN REDUCING PLUG FOWLING WHICH PUMP GAS AT TIMES CAN DO!!. HAS ALTERNATOR CONVERSION RATHER THAN GENORATOR. HAS POWER FRONT SEAT,AT TIMES SWITCH FOR FRONT TO REAR MOVEMENT STICKS SO SEAT IS CURRENTLY IN BACK POSITION. ALL OTHER CONTROLS WORK."

UP FOR AUCTION TODAY IS QUITE POSSIBLY  ONE  OF THE  SLICKEST CUSTOM 63 CADI'S ON THE PLANET !!"  I GUESS THAT I SHOULD START BY SAYING I'VE HAD MY EYES ON THIS CAR FOR  A LONG TIME NOW . PROBABLY AROUND 25 YEARS.

 IT ALL STARTED AS MANY OF US KNOW.   THE CAR SAT GATHERING DUST AND AGING WITH AN OWNER WHO WASN'T SELLING.  AS TIME PASSED I'D OCASIONALLY DROP BY TO VISIT, WITH THE CONVERSATION ALWAYS ENDING IN "NO I BETTER HOLD ON TO IT". ANYWAY SOME 12 OR SO YEARS AGO THE OWNER CAME TO MY SHOP LOOKING TO BUY A  CHEVY ENGINE. WELL JUST SO HAPPEN I HAD ONE AND WITH  NEGOTIATION AND A HANDSHAKE LATER A DEAL WAS MADE AND THE CADI HAD A NEW HOME.

 AFTERWARDS WITH A FRESH BATTERY AND PRIMED CARB WITH A COUPLE OF TAPS. I FIRED THE OLD LAND YACHT UP AND DROVE IT OUT OF THE GROUND THAT IT HAD SETTLED INTO FOR SO MANY YEARS.

 SINCE THEN I HAVE DONE A MAJOR RESTO AND CUSTOMIZATION TO THE CAR. I WANT TO LET THE PICS DO A LOT OF THE SPEAKING FOR ME DUE TO THE EXTENT OF ALL THE UPTAKING IT TOOK TO GET THE CAR WHERE IT'S AT NOW. THE BODY HAS COUNTLESS MAN HOURS OF BODYLINE FITMENT AND BLOCKING OF ALL THE PANELS. THE CAR IS LASOR STRAIGHT WITH NO RIPPLES OR DINGS. MOST IMPORTANTLY THE CAR WAS AND IS " RUST FREE !! " SOLID ROCKERS,FLOOR BOARDS, TRUNK ,ETC... IT'S GLASS SMOOTH WITH HOUSE OF KOLORS KANDIES BURIED IN CLEAR. TRULY IMMACULATE !!

 ALL STAINLESS EXCELLENT. GLASS IN GREAT SHAPE. ALL RUBBER AND SEALS NEWLY REPLACED MINUS WINDSHIELD SEAL, WHICH DIDN'T NEED REPLACEMENT.THE BUMPERS COULD BE RECHROMED IF YOUR REALLY PICKY. PERSONALLY I DIDN'T SEE THE NEED. 

 

 THE ENGINE IS THE FACTORY CORRECT 390 CI WITH A/C AND 10.5 /1 COMPRESSION. FULLY REBUILT NUMBERS MATCH. TRANSMISSION REBUILT AS WELL.  SOME STEERING AND SUSPENSION COMPONENTS SUCH AS BALL JOINTS AND BUSHINGS HAVE BEEN REPLACED. POWER BRAKES REBUILT AS WAS POWER STEERING..ETC... HAS A CUSTOM SPOTLIGHT, A TRAIN TYPE HORN AND FLAME THROWER EXHAUST.  REALLY COOL AT CAR SHOWS AND CRUISES, TALK ABOUT FAMILY FUN !!! THE CAR RIDES WELL AND HAS A GREAT STANCE. LOW AND SLOW, BUT IT LOVES TO BOGGIE DOWN THE HIGHWAY . SHE FEELS LIKE 80 MPH IS HER THING OR MAYBE THAT'S JUST BECAUSE THE SPEED LIMIT WAS THAT BACK IN THE DAY. THERE IS A CUSTOM HIDDEN STEREO IN GLOVE BOX WITH CD PLAYER AND KICKER AMP WITH M.B QUART MIDS AND HIGHS.

 THE ORIGINAL OWNER KEPT ALOT OF RECIEPTS RANGING FROM SEVICING AND OIL CHANGES,  COOL DOCUMENTATION.I THINK  I'VE COVERED MOST EVERYTHING.  SO NOW I NEED TO LET YOU KNOW WHY I'M SELLING. AT THE FIRST OF THIS YEAR I ALMOST LOST MY LIFE  AND WAS IN I.C.U. FOR A TIME. IT'S BEEN A LONG TOUGH ROAD FOR ME SINCE.

 BUT BLESSED AND BY GOD'S WILL I'M STILL HERE.  MY CHILDREN NEED ME AS I THEM. BEING A SINGLE FATHER AND RAISING MY 4 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER I MUST BE ABLE TO PROVIDE FOR THEM AND MYSELF. SO IT'S TIME TO LET SOMEONE ELSE ENJOY THIS CADILLAC AS MUCH AS I HAVE. THERE ARE JUST A FEW SMALL DETAILS I'M UNABLE TO COMPLETE AT THIS TIME LIKE THE SEATS AND A/C ETC... REALLY THAT'S ABOUT IT. SO MY LOSS YOUR GAIN. 

 BECAUSE I REALIZE THAT IT'S UNREALISTIC TO RECOVER ALL THE HOURS AND LOVE THAT MY PASSION HAS PUT INTO IT THE BUYER IS TRULY GETTING A MORE THAN FAIR DEAL WITH PURCHASE OF THE CAR, PLEASE NOTE!! THE BUYER IS TO ASUME " ALL SHIPPING AND HANDLING EXPENSES "!!! THE CAR IS LOCATED AT A BUSINESS JUST OFF HIGHWAY WITH LARGE PARKING LOT FOR LOADING.

 ALSO A $500.00 DEPOSIT VIA PAY/PAL IS REQUIRED 48  HOURS OF AUCTIONS END.  BALANCE DUE WITHIN 7 DAYS OF AUCTION CLOSING VIA CASH, MONEY ORDER, OR BANK TRANSFER.

I WOULD ALSO PREFER THAT BIDDERS HAVE SOME POSITIVE FEEDBACK WITH EBAY AND PAY/PAL ACCOUNT REQUIRED. ALSO THIS CAR IS AND WILL BE ADVERTISED AND FOR SALE LOCALLY AS WELL. SO  KEEP IN MIND AUCTION COULD END EARLY.." PLEASE NOTE " I MAY CONSIDER SLIGHT DROP IN PRICE IS BUYER ISN'T INTERESTED IN THE CUSTOM 22" WHEELS, TRAIN HORN OR FLAME THROWERS ON EXHAUST ?? I DO HAVE THE ORIGINAL STEEL WHEELS & HUB CAPS.....I'M NOT REALLY INTERESTED WITH TRADES BUT WOULD LISTEN. MAINLY FOR THE SIMPLE FACT AS THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO BE SOLD AS WELL....

 THANK'S SO MUCH FOR TAKING TIME TO LOOK AND LISTEN !!  I CAN BE CONTACTED THROUGH EBAY AT WHICH POINT SERIOUS BIDDERS MAY AQUIRE MY PHONE NUMBERS TO QUESTION PARTICULARS.  ANY ADDITIONAL PICTURES CAN BE SENT, VIEWED VIA PICTURE TEXTING ETC..
