  • Master Cylinder (Jan. '11)
  • Calipers/Rotors (Aug. '11)
  • Power Steering Pump/Pulley/Belt (Oct. '12)
  • Thermostat and Gasket and Upper/Lower radiator hoses w/Radiator Flush (Feb. '11)

  • And a few other things, but I've always kept up on the maintenance

The Bad

  • Rust Hole on hood and lower passenger door
  • Landau top is weathered
  • Front seats have rips and tears
  • Engine has a noisy lifter- When I took the car to the dealer in Nov. '12 to have the engine tuned and jetted because of the new carburetor, they did a compression check and said it was good, but the lifter was noisy.  I bought a new intake gasket for when I replaced the lifters but never got around to it.  So, the gaskets in the trunk 
  • No A/C  I had the fittings converted from the old R-12 to the new R134a but couldn't get the system to charge.  They said it needs to be vacuumed out.
  • No power Antennae
  • Right Side Corner bulb socket needs replacing - doesn't turn on when turn signal is activated
  • Left Rear Wheel has many wheel weights

Hopefully I covered most the topics, email me if you have any questions.

Thanks, James

C8s, V8s and the 2022 Car, Truck and Utility of the Year | Autoblog podcast #712

Fri, Jan 14 2022

This episode of the Autoblog Podcast features Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore and Associate Editor Byron Hurd. They kick off with an overview of the 2022 North American Car, Truck and Utility of the Year award winners (spoiler: Ford did well). After that, they talk about GM's electric pickup strategy and whether a premium electric pickup from Cadillac makes sense. Then, they pivot to Mitsubishi and the future of the Ralliart nameplate. Will we ever get a fun, inexpensive enthusiast car from the Japanese automaker again? Then it's on to what Byron's had in the driveway for the past couple weeks, including a 2022 Chevy Corvette and a 2022 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 Xtreme Recon. Plus, he talks about putting some new snow tires on his personal Jeep Wrangler for evaluation in Michigan winter.  Send us your questions for the Mailbag and Spend My Money at: Podcast@Autoblog.com.

Cadillac finds a few more horsepower for ATS-V

Wed, Mar 25 2015

We've rarely found cause to complain about a car getting more power, and guess what? That's not going to change here. After initially announcing that the new ATS-V would come to market with a Corvette-matching 455 horsepower, Cadillac has come back with an SAE-certified 464 horsepower. That, as Automobile points out, puts the high-performance ATS in spitting distance of the base Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG and its 469 hp. Anyone else feeling bad for owners of the 425-hp BMW M3? While the ATS-V is getting a bit more grunt, somehow, we doubt Cadillac will adjust its previously published performance figures. Expect 60 miles per hour to arrive in 3.9 seconds, with a top speed of 185 mph. As of this writing, a lucky Autoblog staffer is lapping the ATS-V around Circuit of the Americas in Austin as part of the sedan's big launch. So while we can't fill you in on its real-world performance just yet, expect a big update soon. Related Video:
