Thank You, for showing interest in my Rare 1966 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible. 
Before I tell you about the good & bad, a few years back i did some
research on this car and this is some of the production facts I was able to gather 


In 1967 Cadillac built the Eldorado with front wheel drive
The 1966 Cadillac Eldorado was the last of the rear wheel drive Eldorado's built 
 
There was only 2100 Eldorado Convertible's built in 66 
There was under 473 convertibles built with the bucket seat & console option
Only the bucket seat cars came with a color top that matched the body & interior color 

The bench seat cars came with a Black or White Top

The Eldorado Registry I found this info on did not provide specific production number of
Eldo Converts built in color, however they did mention that the Silver Blue was among the 
many color options available.  White, Black, Mid Night Blue & Red were most ordered.

So with all of the above said, 
This car is one of 473 Eldorado Convertibles built in 1966 

Now About the car, 

The Interior is all original Blue Leather, there is one small rip in the passenger seat cushion, 

The car has it's original tinted glass,
 The windshields has a rock chip in the center of the window ( happened while driving on the Highway )
The Electric Windows all work as but sometimes the drivers door window refuses to go up or down,
 I think it is a bad/loose connection at the window motor because sometimes the widow works 

All original trim and chrome are in excellent condition

The top works great the canvas is in great shape

This car is a matching numbers vehicle
 It still has it's orig 429 engine that runs great & transmission with no issues !


 Paint is old but doesn't look too bad. Body is pretty straight. There are few tiny dents here and there. 
and little rust as shown in pics

This is honestly a beautiful car & I would not hesitate to drive this car any where 
I do have a small reserve on this auction please do not ask me what it is.
 
I'm selling her to raise funds to complete an over budget construction project,
so near the end of the auction if the bidding comes close to the reserve I might lift the reserve.

This car is also being listed locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early.
If you happen to have a best offer in mind ( above the opening amount ) shoot me a message & we can discuss it 

Purchaser is responsible for all transportation arrangements and shipping costs
A $500.00 deposit is required with in 48 hr's of close of auction

GM recalling 524k vehicles over hood latches and toe link nuts

Fri, 03 Oct 2014

Just hours after confirming to Autoblog its intention to recall 97,540 vehicles in the US (117,651 in North America) for a possible manufacturing defect in the chassis control module of several models, General Motors is issuing two more campaigns that affect another 379,401 units in the US (524,384 in North America).
One campaign covers 290,107 US examples of the 2010-2015 Cadillac SRX and the 2011-2012 Saab 9-4X because the "rear toe link adjuster lock nuts" may be improperly torqued. If not up to spec, the toe adjuster link could separate and allow the wheel to shift while driving, making the handling unstable. GM says that it knows of three crashes and two injuries as a result of this problem. Dealers are inspecting the nuts and installing a new link assembly, if necessary. Autoblog first reported about this potential issue when it showed up on a list of recalls from Transport Canada.
The second recall is for 89,294 examples of the 2013-2015 Chevrolet Spark in the US manufactured from January 17, 2012, through July 29, 2014. According to GM, "corrosion can cause the secondary hood latch striker to stick in the open position." If this happens, and the primary latch also isn't engaged for some reason, the hood could fly open while driving. About 13,000 of these affected Sparks are at dealers and are being held until repaired. The fix requires replacing the hood striker. GM isn't aware of crashes, injuries or fatalities caused by this problem.

2016 Cadillac ATS-V brandishes 450 horses and 6-speed manual

Tue, 11 Nov 2014

Details about the hotly anticipated 2016 Cadillac ATS-V are tumbling out, and they look to be everything we could ask for in a high-performance Caddy coupe.
According to Road & Track, the ATS-V will use a version of the twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V6 from the CTS Vsport, but the wick will be turned up to 450 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque. In glorious news for driving enthusiasts everywhere, that potent mill will be available with either a six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic.
According to R&T, the engine has a heap of high-performance tech to let it make the extra ponies, including titanium connecting rods, two water-to-air intercoolers, titanium turbines for the turbos and an additional radiator dedicated to cooling the gearbox and electronically locking differential. Keeping it all planted are a set of Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires, and a suspension with 50 percent more roll stiffness.

Super Bowl LVII car commercial roundup: Watch them all here

Mon, Feb 13 2023

Fewer automakers than usual spent money advertising during Super Bowl LVII. In total, there were only five traditional ad spots from three big OEMs. A number of car-adjacent ads aired during the Big Game, too, and we’ll bring you those ads in this roundup alongside the more obvious ones. WeÂ’ve compiled all of the automotive-related commercials for you here in this post so you donÂ’t have to go searching for them elsewhere. Read on below to see what aired as the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Philadelphia Eagles. Ram's Super Bowl spot offers a cure for 'Premature Electrification' This commercial revealed the new electric Ram Rev pickup, and itÂ’s themed like a prescription ad for an antidote to "Premature Electrification.” A concerned narrator in the Ram spot asks if you're afraid that going electric too soon will mean "you might not be able to last as long as you like," and there's a guy on a pier who's going to need some new equipment if he wants to catch fish. We're also told there are "options being designed to extend range in satisfying ways," so if this truck isn't right for you, you have choices. All the commercial's missing is a silly medical marketing name and six seconds of speed-reading gibberish about side effects like intestinal bleeding and death. Which are two more good things. Jeep 4xe Super Bowl commercial highlights modern version of 'Electric Boogie' JeepÂ’s “Electric Boogie” commercial follows the Wrangler 4xe and Grand Cherokee 4xe in a variety of simulated off-road situations. Though fun, the soundtrack is the real star of the show. The songÂ’s original artist, Marcia Griffiths, was joined by Grammy winner Shaggy, Jamila Falak, Amber Lee, and Moyann on the track. The modernized re-recording celebrates 40 years since GriffithsÂ’ original track, and Jeep says the track is available for streaming now. Kia returns to the Super Bowl with the tale of 'Binky Dad' This year, Kia follows the adventure of "Binky Dad" in his quest to fetch his daughter's lost pacifier, which naturally takes him over just about every bit of terrain you might encounter upon leaving the civilized confines of Southern California for the not-so-civilized mountains of ... probably also California. It features the refreshed 2023 Kia Telluride, which probably doesnÂ’t need much advertising to see these days, but Kia went for it with the strong three-row SUV anyway.
