CLEAR TITLE READY TO GO.
This Car is also being listed locally , So I do reserve the right to end the auction at any time.
This Cadillac is well documented, and will come with loads of service records, owners manual, and the protecto plate.
This caddy was keep in one family all its life till just recently, it was keep in great shape. Nothing has been redone, orig. paint ,interior etc. just basic service things were done through the years. Chrome is nice, light lens nice. Trim and emblems are all there and in good shape. Has A/C but has not been converted. Recently had new plugs, points, condenser, and cap&rotor installed.
Keep in mind this is a 43 year old car that has not been messed with, the paint is nice but has normal wear for the age few small nicks & light scratches. One small area about 1" in size on front by hood that has been touched up by previouse owner. The body is very nice considering it is original- only a few areas that need attention - Driver side lower front fender close to were it bolts on at the bottom has a area about 3.5"tall x 8" or so long that could use a small patch, also same spot on the passenger side, but not as bad. I have a sheet of patch steel already marked to be cut that will come with the car to repair these areas. Other then that the only other area is the trunk lid top has some patina rust, just needs sanded and painted. That is the worst of it all. Has one little ding in the rubber piece on the rear bumper-hardly noticeable, one small ding on the passenger side fender hardly noticeableband one small ding on the driver side door. It has good doors, door jams, good rockers, Good rear quarters , nice chrome. Also has a trailer hitch option that was installed be the previous owner nice extra feature if you plan on going to shows, if you do not want it on you could remove it, Normal surface rust under the hood around inner edges, floor pans from what I can tell are good, trunk pan is good( has some light surface rust but no rot,) all these things are not that bad , just wanting to give as much detail as possible. For a caddy this old, these are minimal cosmetic things. Whit top is in decent shape-still looks nice but has normal wear for the age, a few small bubbles starting on rear area close to back window.
The Interior: Again Original- Nice Dash, Old Carpet (normal wear-but overall nice ) Seats- Nice only found one small area on driver seat with a little tear(common area on most cars- I think it could be sewed up) all the gadgets seem to work good including the power windows. Has the radio, speakers are old, and could stand to be replaced. Good Glass & Trim. Headlinner- all there, Looks pretty good, Normal wear.
Engine- Very nice Big block 472, Runs good nice big block sound. Lots of power. Could use cleaned up a bit but operates nice, Has New points, plugs, condenser, cap and rotor, Newer master cylinder, ,and other basic tune up items. Transmission shifts smooth, Brakes stop good.
Pretty decent tires, I am sure I forgot a few things, so just ask if you need any further info.
So overall- Original Car, not show room, but nice survivor, petty clean Runs/Drives, great chance to get an original!

Vehicle must be picked up by the buyer at its current location in Anderson INDIANA, I will not be hauling it., or shipping it . If you live far away you would probably want to haul it due to gas prices -big blocks are not the most economical on gas. I have been driving it around and it does fine, but it was setting a while one I first got it. Added high octane gas and tune up, seems to be good but if it were me I would haul it.

Cadillac ATS was almost front-wheel drive
Wed, 03 Apr 2013"We were going to do a front-wheel drive Cadillac compact off of Delta because it was going to be less expensive," Doug Parks, General Motors' vice president of global product programs, told the Automotive News during the Detroit Auto Show in January of this year. That sentence, referring to early ATS discussions more than five years ago - a period when the automaker, and the industry, was struggling - reveals that Cadillac's highly acclaimed rear-wheel drive compact sedan almost never happened.
Parks revealed that that automaker actually built a 2.0-liter test mule, on GM's Delta platform (shared with the Chevrolet Cruze and Buick Verano) and tested it in Europe. While the prototype was "pretty darn good," according to Parks, the team realized that in order to compete against Mercedes-Benz and BMW it would have to invest in a new rear-wheel drive platform.
The resulting all-new Alpha platform would eventually underpin the Cadillac ATS, and many would argue that its balanced rear-wheel drive chassis is its single most important attribute. Thankfully, the Alpha's goodness won't stop with the ATS. The upcoming 2014 Cadillac CTS and the future Camaro will also share its architecture, meaning the Cimarron will remain a distant memory.
2014 Cadillac ELR
Mon, 29 Sep 2014Well, this is awkward.
A few years ago, Audi Of America's boss Johan de Nysschen went on record describing the Chevrolet Volt as "a car for idiots." Fast-forward to earlier this summer, and the well-regarded executive suddenly found himself in a new office with new business cards bearing the title: President, Cadillac. That means that among other challenges, de Nysschen is now tasked with selling the ELR, a car that is, at its core, a Volt in a sportier, less utile frock wearing a price tag that's twice as expensive.
Frankly, it's not a prospect we imagine the South African executive and recent Infiniti boss relishes. Just about nobody is buying the ELR - Cadillac has sold but 774 examples of its plug-in hybrid coupe this year and it presently has an almost a 200-day supply according to Automotive News. What's more, those numbers actually represent big improvements over just a few months ago, before GM started heaping on the incentives. The cynic in us says that the bad news for De Nysschen is that he's got a borderline sales-proof car in his new corporate garage. The good news? Cadillac customers apparently aren't idiots.
Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs
Thu, 03 Jan 2013General Motors says its next-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade models will offer shoppers improved interior differentiation. Car and Driver recently caught up with Chris Hilts, GM's creative manager of interior design, who said that the cabins will all feature unique instrument panels, consoles, center stacks and switchgear moving forward. Apparently GM is now aware that consumers may be bothered by the fact that today's $85,000 Escalade has effectively the same cabin as a $45,000 Tahoe. Hilts says SUV buyers want more refinement than their pickup purchasing counterparts - and those same buyers also want their SUVs to have more exterior differentiation between the company's Silverado and Sierra pickup lines. Shocking.
That all sounds good to us, but we've heard this song and dance before. GM made big waves about how different the new-for-2013 Silverado and Sierra would look from each other, but judging by what we've seen so far, GM's stylists are painting in shades rather than with the full spectrum.
