THIS CLASSIC IS A BEAUTY! OFFERING A 1968 CADILLAC DEVILLE CONVERTIBLE. EVERYTHING ON THIS CAR WORKS. IT WILL BE NYS INSPECTED BEFORE DELIVERY.
THE CAR IS ALL ORIGINAL WITH A FEW EXCEPTIONS. IT HAS BEEN REPAINTED AND THE TOP WAS CHANGED FROM BLACK TO WHITE. A FINE CHOICE! THE ORIGINAL PAINT JUST COULD NOT BE BROUGHT BACK TO AN ACCEPTABLE FINISH AND THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BLACK TOP, JUST THOUGHT THE WHITE WOULD LOOK BETTER. IN FACT THE BLACK TOP NOW LIVES ON ANOTHER '68 CADDY.
THE CAR WAS GONE THROUGH BUMPER TO BUMPER TO INSURE EVERYTHING WORKED PROPERLY. THE TOP OF THE ENGINE WAS JUST DONE, INCLUDING A VALVE JOB.
THE BODY IS STRAIGHT AND TRUE. ALL OF THE CHROME IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH A FEW MINOR EXCEPTIONS- THE REAR BUMPER IS THREE PIECES AND THE CENTER PIECE HAS 1 MINOR DING THAT CAN ONLY BE SEEN FROM CERTAIN ANGLES AND THE RIGHT LIGHTING. IT CAUGHT MY EYE ONLY AFTER LOOKING THE CAR OVER 4 OR 5 TIMES. ALSO, THERE IS A NARROW PIECE OF CHROME AT THE BOTTOM OF THE TRUNK LID WHICH HAS A FEW DINGS. THEY CAN BE SEEN IN PICTURE # 18. UNDERNEATH, THE CAR SHOWS ONLY SURFACE RUST, ABSLOUTLY NO ROT
THE CAR RIDES AND DRIVES LIKE A DREAM, LIKE BEING ON A CLOUD. WITH IS LONG WHEELBASE AND WEIGHT IT GIVES YOU THE SENSE OF FLOATING ON THE ROAD.
THE STANDARD ENGINE ON THE '68's WAS A 472 C.I. MAKING 375 HP, THE MOST POWERFUL AMERICAN CAR AT THE TIME.
THIS CAR WAS IN SAFE STORAGE FOR 36 YEARS. HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR THAT, IT PROBABLY WOULDN'T BE HERE TODAY.
I HAVE ACCESS TO THE BEST AND MOST REASONABLE SHIPPERS AND WOULD BE HAPPY TO HELP THE BUYER WITH ARRANGEMENTS.

Cadillac releases updated 2015 CTS
Sun, 10 Aug 2014Cadillac is in the process of applying the new wreathless emblem across its range one model at a time, but rather than simply slap the new logo on the existing models, it's taking the opportunity to roll out some revisions as well. First came the ATS coupe, followed by the updated ATS sedan, and now the flagship brand in the General Motors portfolio has quietly announced some revisions for the CTS sedan as well.
For the 2015 model year, the CTS - which was just introduced last year - gets a revised front end with that wreathless crest but also a new chrome grille with active aero elements on standard models and a black-chrome grille on the Vsport. The revised grille is flanked by new headlights, but behind them the engine lineup carries over: a 2.0-liter turbo four with 272 horsepower, a 3.6-liter V6 with 321 hp or - in the Vsport performance model - a 3.6-liter twin-turbo V6 with 420 hp that's still the most powerful V6 GM has ever made. All engines are mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission (ditching the six-speed auto on previous versions) and (apart from the RWD Vsport) can be had in rear- or all-wheel-drive flavors.
Cadillac has also given the updated CTS some new electronics (including inductive smartphone charging, onboard wifi, and more advanced parking and lane assist systems) as well as new wheels, trims and color options, details on which you can read in the press release below.
Facelifted Cadillac ATS spied completely uncovered
Thu, 27 Feb 2014The Cadillac ATS makes for a pretty svelte little coupe, and General Motors appears to know it, because multiple, completely undisguised prototype sedans have been spotted testing wearing what look like many of the forthcoming coupe's body parts.
Not only does it wear at least the outline of the brand's new, broader crest, it has the same front air dam with continuous chrome strip found on the coupe. The only real difference is that it has the somewhat taller side view mirrors from the sedan, rather than the narrower, longer ones from the coupe. Around back, the changes are harder to spot because the test car is outfitted with an unpainted lower bumper. However, it seems to lack the chrome strip that offsets the lower portion of the coupe from the sedan.
The ATS sedan is already a looker, but it is good to see Cadillac is taking a second pass using what it learned on the coupe. There's no word yet on when this revised sedan is going to hit the streets - let alone what changes will take place beneath the skin - but we're thinking it looks about right for 2015.
First-edition Detroit muscle raises millions for charity at Barrett-Jackson
Mon, Jan 19 2015Amidst all the classic metal crossing the auction block each year in Scottsdale, AZ, Detroit automakers have a tradition of donating the first examples of their most enticing new muscle cars, with the proceeds of their sales going towards worthwhile charities. This year, Barrett-Jackson handled three noteworthy examples. The highest price among them was the first Ford Shelby GT350R Mustang with the VIN #001, which raised $1 million for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. General Motors donated the first new Chevy Corvette Z06 Convertible, the first retail example of the droptop supercar garnering $800,000 for the United Way. Along with the Z06, GM also donated the first new 2016 Cadillac CTS-V sedan, which brought in $170,000 for Detroit's College for Creative Studies. Although these were the headline Motown muscle machines furnished by the automakers themselves, they weren't the only vehicles auctioned off for worthy causes. A 1950 GM Futurliner bus donated by collector Ron Pratte led the charge when it brought in $4.65 million for the Armed Forces Foundation. Other lots included a custom Jeep Wrangler donated by SEMA ($85k), a new M5 donated by BMW ($800k), a '79 Oldsmobile Cutlass Hurst ($140k), '39 Cadillac LaSalle C-Hawk ($410k), Jeff Gordon's 1999 NASCAR-spec Chevy Monte Carlo ($500k) and a Victory Cross Country 8-Ball motorcycle ($180k). All told, the charity lots raised over $8.7 million for local and national charities.
