1964 Cadillac  series 62 convertible,

During my 6 years of ownership, a lot has been replaced and repaired, all with receipts.  Now everything works (windows, top, 6 way seats, wipers, interior and exterior lights, turn signals, signal seeking radio, antenna) except for the factory A/C and the W/Squirters, neither of which is hooked up.  There is NO heater.

Mechanically:  This is my car’s strongest point. In terms of the 4 S’s, it starts , shifts , steers and stops dependably . This car is literally my driver so safety and reliability were non-negotiable.  That’s where my $ went, that’s why I have confidence in my Cadillac.   Every summer, I take several road trips of almost  200 miles each, but my car never overheats , doesn’t burn oil  and is rock steady every time I hit 100 mph  (I cruise at 75/80 mph)

Cosmetically:  Although my car gets thumbs up and even stops traffic (everyone from kids to grandmas loves this Cadillac), it’s a driver with minor dings, faded spots, and scratches   The chrome needs attention and there is very slight bubbling in the driver’s lower door, but no one notices at 10/10.  Wet sanding had been “overlooked” following its last paint job. Thus the good news here is the potential to significantly improve the finish w/o the cost of a new paint job.   And, yes, it does pass the magnet test.

The owner’s manual and the shop manual come with it, as does my file, of course. 

What’s great here is this Cadillac is totally your call: a turn-key summer cruiser or an apt candidate for restoration.

Cadillac mulling CTS Coupe successor after all

Thu, 04 Apr 2013

The 2014 Cadillac CTS made a big splash last week at the New York Auto Show, but now that we've seen the sedan, we can start to wonder about whether coupe and wagon versions are in the cards. According to Edmunds, Cadillac is at least considering bringing back the CTS Coupe for a second generation, which seems like an even better chance since the brand's global marketing director, Jim Vurpillat, was quoted as saying that the car was the top-selling luxury coupe in the industry.
Of course, this goes against reports we heard last year that Caddy's coupe and wagon would live on just not under the CTS name, but the interview with Vurpillat has us hopeful for a next-generation CTS Coupe. If it does come to fruition, we would expect the new two-door to have a largely unique exterior design like the current CTS Coupe, to echo that of intended rivals like the Mercedes-Benz E-Class Coupe and even the high-dollar BMW 6 Series.
