Hello to all ebayers,..... ******ATTENTION!!!!******For an EXTENSIVE COLLECTION of CURRENT PICTURES ((132+/-))!!!!!, PLEASE CLICK on the link directly below this sentence****** http://my.tidewater.net/~kitti/CadillacConvertible
.....up for your consideration and/ or bid is yet another old classic out of my 30 year+ collection. This one being a 1968 Cadillac DeVille 472 Big Block Convertible!!! Like everything in my collection, the Cadillac is currently not a "turn-key-driver" and will need some work. I purchased the Cadillac 15 years ago in 1999 and it has been used little since,...it has spent most of the time in storage. For the Cadillac to be a "turn-key-&-go-driver",...it needs the following regards to the front of the Cadillac,...brake shoes need replacing ((both sides)) and 1 brake drum replaced (D/S/ it is missing completely). The rest of the shoes seem fine, but the other 3 drums will need to be turned down a little and cleaned up ((some surface rust that needs to be removed)) due to sitting all those years. The master cylinder needs to be filled with fluid and bled out, ((brake lines are good)), needs canvas convertible top, battery, lastly a tune up probably.....((good running, but last started 1+ year ago)), burns no oil, trans works great and clean transmission fluid. The engine turns over smoothly and rapidly when using a good battery with some high amperage,...a low amperage battery is just simply inadequate for an engine of this size and compression,...being a 472 Big Block. The sheet metal threw-out the Cadillac is pretty decent all and all,.....there are some rust issues "here and there" due to the age of the Cadillac being 46 years in the Northeast,......please LOOK at ALL the DETAILED PICTURES because "good", "bad" or "indifferent" varies widely according to the viewer. The convertible top bows and frame-work are all complete with NO RUST, NO BENDS and NO BREAKS. The convertible top motor along with the hydraulic arms and hydraulic lines are all original, in place, excellent condition and worked perfectly fine when last tried/ operated 5 years ago in 2009. The tires all-the-way-around are excellent and hold air fine with no problems,...the spare is the only exception and a little "tired",...but holds air for 3 hours (+/-). *****NOTE*****The Cadillac free-rolls 100% and NO brakes are seized,...therefore will load with ease. I've stated all that I know about the Cadillac as factual as possible. Due to the age and amount of sitting for years, this Cadillac does not come with any guarantees or warranties expressed or implied and is sold as is where is. For the winning bidder I offer FREE delivery BUT only if you are local and/or up to only 20 miles away. If you are 21-100 miles from the Cadillac I offer delivery for a fee of $1.00 per mile. I do not offer any delivery options over 100 miles and I certainly do not offer any long haul options from state to state either. Any winning bidder that is in the "over 100 mile category" it is up to you to make shipping arrangements and of course all transportation and shipping costs are the expense of you...(the winning high bidder). At my discretion, I may extend the free delivery from 21-100 miles if the Impala reaches a dollar amount I deem acceptable. Should you use your own trailer/equipment to pickup the Cadillac,...I offer FREE loading assistance to you with my Rollback and equipment,...or I'll assist the carrier of your choice (should you hire one),...also FREE of charge. PLEASE NOTE;...the state of Maine does not/ will not issue a title for ANY automobile/ vehicle of 1995 and prior. I do not have a title and the Cadillac comes with a bill-of-sale as ownership. ADDITIONAL NOTE;...some states will not accept a bill-of-sale as ownership of a vehicle,...please check with your individual state. FOR THOSE PERSPECTIVE BIDDERS THAT FIT INTO THIS LAST CATEGORY,...please let me know, as I can easily obtain a legal document from the state of Maine called (("Letter of Verification" @ 1 (207) 624-9000 extension 52149)) so that you can take this paperwork to YOUR state DMV you reside in and YOUR STATE will issue you a new title in your state. I've done this may of times before and to my knowledge this is the only perfectly legal way for bidders from title-demanding states to get a title for a vehicle from a non-title issuing state. I
believe the pictures speak for them self, and what doesn't I've
included in the description,........if you feel I have missed anything
or you have any questions what so ever, please feel free to send me an
email and I'll answer the question(s) asap. Upon the completion of the
auction I ask that the winning bidder to commit to the transaction with
payment in the form of a $200.00 deposit within 48 hours. I also ask
that the high bidder follow-up with full payment in 7 days, or contact me for additional time if needed. If
you have no intent of following threw with the complete payment of the
auction item, please just don't bid and waste everyone's time playing
games,...any non paying bidders will be reported to both ebay and all 3
major credit reporting agency's. ********KEEP WATCH,...a lot of interesting older ANTIQUE/CLASSIC AUTOS (1950-1985) coming in the next several weeks/months,...ALL of which will start with a modest starting price with NO HIDDEN RESERVE!!!******** .....thanks for looking, Bob.. |

Cadillac is bringing a new concept to Pebble Beach
Mon, Aug 15 2016Cadillac will debut a new concept Thursday in Monterey. The company also released teaser video, but it only shows us a few glimpses of interior parts and a concept drawing that seems to show a very minimalistic dashboard. The big draw appears to be the large screen filling in for instruments and infotainment. According to Cadillac, the screens are curved OLED panels co-developed with LG, and the technology behind them will appear in a future Cadillac. Bringing a new concept to the famous Monterey Car Week is a return to form for Cadillac. In past years the company brought beautiful concepts like the full-size, four-door Ciel convertible, and the taught, athletic Elmiraj coupe. The latter of these showcased designed cues that trickled into production Cadillacs. No word (or pictures) on the exterior yet. We'll be sure to have complete coverage of the concept later this week.

2014 Cadillac CTS debuts new design, twin-turbo power, Vsport model [w/video]
Tue, 26 Mar 2013
If ever there were a Cadillac to truly rival the world's best, this could be it.
With every new model, Cadillac indeed gets closer and closer to actually performing at the top of its class, rivaling those crafty Germans at their own sport/luxury sedan game. The best example yet of Cadillac's efforts to challenge the world came last year, when we met the 2013 ATS - a vehicle that we praised for its on-road dynamics and interior refinement, and later went on to be named North American Car of the Year.
New V6 engines are only the start at Cadillac
Fri, Mar 20 2015Cadillac debuted its new family of V6 engines Friday, but that's not all General Motors' luxury brand has in store for the coming years. The six-cylinder powerplants will certainly help Cadillac in the near term, but they're just two of the many parts of the company's future strategy. GM has invested $12 billion in Cadillac to help the brand grow over the next five years, and the company will launch eight new products between now and 2020. That all starts with the launch of the CT6 flagship later this year – a fullsize luxury sedan we'll see for the first time in New York on March 31. The CT6 will introduce several new features and technologies to the Cadillac range, and with its launch also begins the slow restructuring of Cadillac's model-naming system. The new nomenclature means CT and XT badges for cars and utilities, respectively. Cadillac says that of the eight new vehicles it plans to launch by 2020, five of them will be first-time offerings in market segments where the brand currently does not play. But it's not just about new products – new powertrains are an important part of the Cadillac story, too. After the new V6 engines – a naturally aspirated 3.6-liter and a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter engine – launch later this year in the 2016 ATS, CTS and CT6, the company says it has a strategy for V8 power – possibly a twin-turbo application – as well as future electrification. Cadillac also says it's working on adding four- and six-cylinder diesel powertrains, though it's unclear which vehicles will make use of those engines. This new six-cylinder engine family is indeed important, with Cadillac's chief engineer, David Leone, calling it the "most advanced V6 in the industry." With 335 horsepower, the 3.6-liter engine is the highest output, naturally aspirated V6 powerplant Cadillac has done – and that's SAE-certified, and on regular fuel. Beyond that, the 3.0-liter mill (pictured at right) marks the first application of GM's active fuel management system on a twin-turbocharged engine. This means that when full power isn't necessary, the TTV6 can run as a 2.0-liter V4 in order to save fuel. New transmissions are also part of the V6 engine story. GM's all-new eight-speed Hydra-Matic 8L45 gearbox will be paired to the 3.6-liter V6, and the 3.0-liter TTV6 will use the company's existing 8L90 transmission that is already found in the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups (with the 6.2-liter engine).
