Here we have 2, yes count them, TWO 6-window 1960 Cadillac 4 Door Deville Pillarless Hard Tops. BOTH of them have straight bodies and are survivors. BOTH of them are solid restoration candidates. BOTH of them have solid chrome trim with no missing pieces. I am on the fence between building one REALLY good one out of them and parting the rest, or letting someone else have this project. Why?? - because it will take me forever - I just don't have enough time to work on these right now, and my money is tied up. Otherwise I would just hold onto them.

The white one is a Coupe DeVille with all the high class options. It runs well (no smoke or wierd noises, tranny shifts perfect...) it drives - see below. The grey one is a Coupe Calais (which is just a DeVille with less interior trim and crank windows) ...or at least that is how I think the models worked. Grey one is a one-owner car. Not that it matters much at this point.

Here are the details on the white one. It has its original 390 V-8 (56,000 actual miles), Automatic Trans, Power Steering, Power Brakes (master brake cylinder not building pressure so brakes are not working), Power Windows and Power Seats. It basically was an all original car that the prior owner was driving on special occasions until he parked it 12 years ago. It needed some body work down low so he had that repaired and a paint job done back then. The overall outside of the body is decent. Some old repair on the bottom of front fenders and lower rear quarters showing. The bondo didn't like the storage and so it needs significant prep to get a good paint job on it. Drivers side inner rocker is rusted out and one of the floor braces between the 2 doors on the drivers side are rusted out. I cleaned out the original matting in the trunk. The floor is intact but is getting thin.

Roof has a small dent on drivers side. The hood on the car is rusty and is junk. Engine was hooked up to a boat tank (just in case the car's tank had dirt), cleaned the points and the car fired right up. Power steering works beautiful. Transmission goes in all the gears. Brakes will work once the master cylinder is replaced. It is not building pressure. If this is a concern for shipping we can get a new master cylinder and get the brakes working at an additional cost. The interior in the car is all intact and in good shape - see pictures. Two cracks in the dash pad, head liner is good and the carpets need to be thrown out. I tried the lights, windows and seat etc and everything worked. The radio is out of the dash and in the trunk (not sure why - but I was going to get a modern replacement) and front parking light housing trims. They are in nice shape. Five good wide white wall tires. Would be a great project 60's era car to fix up or an excellent car to part out.

Here are the details on the grey one. It has its original 390 V-8 (non-operable), Automatic Trans, Power Steering, Power Brakes. This car has been stored for 20-25 years now. The engine was stuck when the car was stored and has been pickled for at least 20 years now. It is a rebuild candidate, so a good core. The body on this one is completely unmolested. The rockers and lower doors show rust holes, but are easily patched since it is original paint and no bondo. The interior is out of the car and in good shape. The floors are rusted out and need new pans. Frame is solid. Bumpers are dented and have some rust outs.

For me the plan is simple: Strip and patch the body and frame of the grey car. Take the engine, bumpers and interior from the white one, put them in the grey one and paint it. In the end, you'll have a nice 30k restored Cadillac Coupe DeVille. Not only that, but you will make back the money spent on this auction just selling off the extra parts from this project here on eBay!

Act fast ;-)

Cadillac ATS to go racing in 2015 as CTS.V.R replacement

Thu, 21 Aug 2014

Cadillac has been racking up victories with the CTS.V.R in Pirelli World Challenge racing for two model generations now, including recent GT class championships in 2012 and 2013. However, even winning racers eventually have to retire, and it looks like the CTS may be taking a bow at the end of the season. In its place, Caddy is reportedly working on a new racecar based on the ATS Coupe, and it might even get to compete internationally.
According to Racer, Pratt & Miller Engineering is leading the development and is already lapping the ATS racecar in Michigan for testing. It reportedly drops the CTS' V8 in favor of a twin-turbocharged V6 powering the rear wheels. Since this is the same team behind the hugely successful Corvette Racing program and the current CTS.V.R, the latest car appears to be in good hands.
The new model would also adhere to GT3 rules, according to Racer, and that might signal a big change for Cadillac's motorsports program. It means that the ATS could be sold to teams in the numerous series around the world that accept these vehicles. That would broaden the luxury coupe's exposure and put it up against GT3 racecars from premium brands, like Bentley, Porsche and McLaren. If it wins, the change could be a marketing bonanza for the brand.

Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle

Sun, Aug 21 2022

The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward Â— perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.

GM recalls Chevy Impala, Cadillac XTS for braking problem

Sun, 21 Sep 2014

Back in April, General Motors launched an investigation into braking issues affecting the 2014 Chevy Impala. Now there's a recall of both the Impala and the Cadillac XTS with which it shares its Epsilon II platform.
The issue apparently revolves around the electronic parking brake, which may not properly disengage. As a result, the rear brake pads could rub the rotor even while the vehicle is in motion, causing "significant heat, smoke and sparks." The earlier investigation had been launched following a complaint regarding the forward collision avoidance system, which is now either appears to have been unrelated or possibly a symptom of this larger issue.
The recall affects 2013-15 XTS models manufactured between February 14, 2012, and August 22, 2014, as well as 2014-15 Impalas manufactured between January 15, 2013, and August 22, 2014. The total number of affected vehicles reported by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration comes to precisely 132,921 units, while The Detroit News reports a higher total of 205,000 units - the difference potentially coming down to the scope within the US and more broadly across North America. Dealers will contact owners to update the software in order to fix the problem.
