This auction is for a 1966 Cadillac Deville Convertible. Prior owner owned the car for the past 23 years. Just came out of 9 year storage. It has the 429 V-8, Automatic Trans, PS, PB, Power Seat, Power Top, AC (compressor missing), Power Windows, Factory AM/FM Radio and Deluxe Leather Interior. There is a split on the drivers side seat bottom. Otherwise the interior is in very nice shape. Door panels, dash pad and rear seat are very nice. All glass is good. Everything on the car works except for the clock. Car has a lot of plastics on the interior and there are no broken plastics. Carpets should be shampooed. The convertible top does have a tear on the back drivers side and a couple of small spots drivers side upfront. This was due to a tree limb falling. I did put some tape to hold it together.Also there is a dent on the trunk lid caused by the same limb.It looks worse then it is . A unispotter (stud gun)) can be used to pull the dent and then repair it. The body on the car is in above average condition. Very solid and straight. There is some minor bubbling on the passenger side down low in a few spots and one spot in front of the skirt area on the drivers side. Very easy repair. Nice and clean body area when skirts are removed. The underside is original and solid, frame is good and solid also. Trunk pan looks good but I did remove the carpet material as it was soiled. Both front and rear bumpers are in good shape. There is some minor surface rust on the drivers side front bumper pod from peeling chrome. As far as the mechanicals I cleaned the points, replaced the plug wires, did an oil change and the car fired right up. The motor runs great but it does have a noisey water pump which will need replacing and what seems to sound like a couple of lifters that are not pumping up to full potential. When you start it cold you hear nothing but as it warms up those couple of lifters seem to sound off. Its kind of tough to describe but thats what I believe it is. Car drives down the road fine but didnt want to go too far because of the water pump. Car has a fairly new set of radial tires. Exhaust is in great shape, all the brakes are good. With a little TLC over the winter this can be ready for the upcoming spring. A good sound investment piece for short money. We have a Maine registration and proper dealer paperwork for a smooth transaction. We have the car listed locally so we reserve the right to end the auction early. If car meets the reserve we will let the auction run to the end to be fair to all bidders. If you need more info or pics please email us or call 1-207-324-5568 Days or 1-207-432-2862 Eves and Sundays

Cadillac Elmiraj has production potential

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

There are many reasons to love the Cadillac Elmiraj Concept, but not the least of which is how production-ready this big coupe appears to be. Take out the overly fancy interior and a few conceptual elements of the exterior, and this looks like a coupe that could be in dealers now as the successor to the Eldorado.
On top of that, Automotive News is quoting Bob Ferguson, Cadillac senior vice president, as saying that a production version of this car is "very doable." AN adds that if the Monterey showstopper gets the green-light, this car would compete against the upcoming Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe and would based on Cadillac's upcoming rear-wheel-drive flagship sedan due out in 2015. The range-topping coupe would debut sometime after the sedan model. Cross your fingers.

Consumer Reports no longer recommends Honda Civic

Mon, Oct 24 2016

Consumer Reports annual Car Reliability Survey is out, and yes, there are some big surprises. First and foremost? The venerable publication no longer recommends the Honda Civic. In fact, aside from the walking-dead CR-Z and limited-release Clarity fuel-cell car, the Civic is the only Honda to miss out on CR's prestigious nod. At the opposite end there's a surprise as well – Toyota and Lexus remain the most reliable brands on the market, but Buick cracked the top three. That's up from seventh last year, and the first time for an American brand to stand on the Consumer Reports podium. Mazda's entire lineup earned Recommended checks as well. Consumer Reports dinged the Civic for its "infuriating" touch-screen radio, lack of driver lumbar adjustability, the limited selection of cars on dealer lots fitted with Honda's popular Sensing system, and the company's decision to offer LaneWatch instead of a full-tilt blind-spot monitoring system. Its score? A lowly 58. The Civic isn't the only surprise drop from CR's Recommended ranks. The Audi A3, Ford F-150, Subaru WRX/STI, and Volkswagen Jetta, GTI, and Passat all lost the Consumer Reports' checkmark. On the flipside, a number of popular vehicles graduated to the Recommended ranks, including the BMW X5, Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and Cruze, Hyundai Santa Fe, Porsche Macan, and Tesla Model S. Perhaps the biggest surprise is the hilariously recall-prone Ford Escape getting a Recommended check – considering the popularity of Ford's small crossover, this is likely a coup for the brand, as it puts the Escape on a level playing field with the Recommended Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Nissan Rogue. While Ford is probably happy to see CR promote the Escape, the list wasn't as kind for every brand. For example, of the entire Fiat Chrysler Automobiles catalog, the ancient Chrysler 300 was the only car to score a check – there wasn't a single Dodge, Fiat, Jeep, Maserati, or Ram on the list. That hurts. FCA isn't alone at the low end, either. GMC, Jaguar Land Rover, Mini, and Mitsubishi don't have a vehicle on CR's list between them, while brands like Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, Nissan, Lincoln, Infiniti, and Cadillac only have a few models each.

Cadillac CT6 styling will be evolutionary, not like Elmiraj

Wed, Dec 17 2014

Well, this is at least a little disappointing. It turns out Cadillac's long-awaited flagship, the CT6, won't be ushering in a wholesale change in the company's design. That's coming from GM Design guru Ed Welburn, meaning it should be taken as gospel (unless of course he's just trying to hoodwink us). "It'll be different and it will certainly stand out in the portfolio," Welburn told Automotive News. "But you won't see a real shift in direction." Instead, Art and Science will be shown in yet another new form, and will "continue to evolve," according to Welburn, although what that means is unclear. What we can say for certain, though, is that Art and Science on the CT6 will not evolve into the stunning Elmiraj Concept. "I think Elmiraj was more of an influence on some other things we're working on for Cadillac," Welburn said, we're guessing with a smirk and an air of mystery. Considering we have yet to see the CT6, it's hard to tell whether this will be good news or bad, although based on the critical reception to the Elmiraj, we're a little bit disappointed by Welburn's statements. Still, only time will tell whether the styling of the CT6 will really work out.
