CHECK OUT THIS BABY!



Vintage, Antique 1976 / Bi-centennial year Cadillac DeVille for Auction!

Very little rust, runs very well! Feels very nice and solid on the road for a vehicle of it's age.  Please note, I am not a collector or restorer, so there are undoubtedly some issues that I am not aware of.  However, the major components are in good working order in my humble opinion.  It shifts well, turns over well (the battery has grown low in charge as it has not been driven enough over the winter) and most of the electronics still work!

Upolstery is in very good shape for it's age! Paint is mostly very good (see a few typical rust spots on my pics)


Issues I noticed:
1) Hood latch does not lock (probably cable is frozen), however hood is so heavy it stays completely shut.

2) Driver door does not lock

3) Steering has the typical play of a GM car from the 70s

Otherwise, this vehicle is more solid than many cars on the road for 5 years or less! Good quality sheet metal!

Don't hesitate to ask me questions.

The car is parked 30 miles from my home.  So, please allow very specific questions at least 24 hrs for an answer. Thanks!

Thanks for looking and have an awesome day!  Spring has finally Sprung!

For anyone curious about gas type, I found this infomation on a forum useful...

"The last year GM and Ford cars were designed for fully leaded fuels was 1972.
The 1973-1975 models were engineered for "Low Lead" fuels.

1976 was the first year of "unleaded" fuel, and most cars then had the
catalytic converters.

Corrections:


I was informed by a knowledgeable person that the official exterior color of this vehicle is called "Harvest" and the interior cloth (which matches the padded roof) is called "Buckskin" and is quite different from Gold.  I apologize if anyone was misled by the color scheme.  Ebay won't let me revise it in the title, so this is the only place I can add the revision.

The other important point made is that the regular unleaded fuel in the 70s had a higher octane level than the "regular" does today.  Therefore, this Cadillac will run better on super unleaded or using at least 91 octane rating.  Thanks for reading!

Al Capone’s bulletproof 1928 Cadillac Town Sedan is back on the market

Wed, Feb 12 2020

It turns out that infamous mob boss Al Capone played an early role in the development of the modern armored executive car, and now there’s another chance to own his bulletproof 1928 Cadillac Town Sedan, which is being offered by Celebrity Cars of Las Vegas for a cool $1 million. It was last seen netting $341,000 at auction by RM SothebyÂ’s in 2012 and does not appear to have undergone significant restoration since then, raising the question of why its value has jumped nearly threefold. Painted green with a black roof, fenders and bumpers, the car is said to be the earliest surviving bulletproof vehicle, with nearly inch-thick glass and once lined (but no longer; read on) with nearly 3,000 pounds of asbestos-wrapped steel armor plating. It features a rear window rigged to drop quickly, so the tough guys in the rear seats could fire on any pursuers. Heavy spring lifts operated the side windows, which were also rigged to raise higher than usual to reveal a circular cutout big enough for the muzzle of a machine gun. In this case, the factory specs may be the least interesting part of the car, though it is undeniably a looker. It features a Series 341-A, 90-bhp, 341 cubic-inch L-head V8 engine mated to a three-speed manual, with a beam front axle and full-floating rear axle with semi-elliptical leaf springs and four-wheel mechanical drum brakes. It has only 1,111 miles on the odometer, having spent much of its history in museums or on display at carnivals and amusement parks. ItÂ’s believed to have flown under the fedsÂ’ radar in a Chicago garage owned by Emil Denemark, a known mafia associate and South Side Cadillac dealer who was related to Capone by marriage, when the mob boss began his slide into legal troubles leading up to his eventual felony conviction and jail time. In 2008, an elderly man named Richard “Cappy” Capstran told a friend that he had once helped his father install armor plating on a Cadillac owned by Al Capone. His father, Ernest Capstran, had repaired another of CaponeÂ’s vehicles and earned the mobsterÂ’s business fortifying the brand-new Cadillac. “My dad said, ‘We donÂ’t do that kind of work here.Â’ And they (CaponeÂ’s men) said, ‘You do now,’” Richard Capstran recalled in a recorded interview, per SothebyÂ’s. CaponeÂ’s associates reportedly also backed the car into the shop so no one could see what kind of work was being done to it.

GM winding down Chevrolet brand in Europe

Thu, 05 Dec 2013

If you've taken even a cursory look at GM's European strategy and wondered how it can target the market there with both Chevrolet and Opel/Vauxhall, you're not alone. In fact General Motors itself has found it difficult to justify the two-pronged approach. That's why it's essentially pulling Chevy from the European marketplace.
Instead of trying to ply European buyers with what are mostly former Daewoo products rebadged as Chevys, GM will now let Opel (or Vauxhall in the UK) represent its mass-market aspirations. Chevrolet will keep its presence in Russia and other former Soviet markets, and will continue selling certain niche products in Eastern and Western Europe. The Corvette, for example, has long been sold in Europe through Cadillac dealerships, which for its part is currently "finalizing plans for expanding in the European market".
While the shift in strategy is expected to help GM get a stronger foothold in the European market in the long run, in the short term the restructuring will cost it dearly: between $700 million and $1 billion, according to its own estimates, split between the last quarter of this year and the first half of the next.
