1972 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible.
New Tires, recent dual exhaust(sounds sweet). New passenger side CV Shaft.
This is a car I only know about the past 12 years of history of. This was a friend of mines who loved this car. He took the wheels off every winter and either covered it or put it in his garage. It was his weekend cruiser. He took good maintenance care of this car. Getting what it needed, when it needed it. A few years ago I towed it when the CV shaft broke. At that point he took the top motor out to replace or have it rebuilt and was going to go through it and do some of the little things that bothered him. It never got there. He recently sold his house and I moved a bunch of items for him and bought the balance.
I put the shaft in the front. I wired up the choke so it wouldn't load up while driving. It starts hard due to this. Its the original carb, and everything under the hood is original and intact. I did not want to do anything to change that at this point. The car runs really nice once warmed up and sounds pretty mean. I have only taken this short cruises and one good run on the interstate to make sure it was solid and smooth. I would not hesitate to drive this car just about anywhere, other then the gas mileage is like one of my tow trucks.
Car could use a cleaning. I have not made any attempt to clean or cover anything up. It will clean up very nice. I believe the interior to be all original, including carpet which is in great shape. Seats have some stains that should come out. One being when I stepped on the back seat when disconnecting the top arms to make it easy to raise and lower manually.
Paint is a 50 mph paint job that is pealing in places.( check last pic on passenger rear quarter.) It was painted years ago and looks like it was a brownish color originally. Its a nice car that gets many compliments around town. Its not a show car, but a very affordable classic, going on antique, driver. The right person could easily take it to the next level or better. No rot on the car. Solid everywhere.
Delivery is available. I would be willing to drive it just about anywhere for a fee. But It would be cheaper to fly in to (BTV) Burlington International Airport, and drive out. Airport is 15 minutes from my shop.
Very important. Vermont does not issue titles for vehicles 15 years or older. This means I can't get one. At all. Most states will allow you to purchase if you get a temp reg from DMV. I cannot do this for you, due to needing an out of state ID to prove the plate is being used for in transit. Check your local DMV. Some will work with just a Bill of Sale.
Please keep in mind this car is 40 years old. Please ask questions, Call Anytime Towing 802-878-8467 anytime day or night. I try to describe the items the best I can. I may be missing something. So asking questions helps.
I am starting this auction at $2000 with a no reserve. So if you bid, its sold. High bidder takes it. I would only end auction early if I felt there was something wrong with the vehicle. So bid with confidence.
I will work on better pictures. I am having some tech problems and I am not a computer person. So these were done with a crappy phone, I apologize.
I was required to put something in the title line. There is no title.

2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe priced from $37,995*
Thu, 15 May 2014Cadillac has released pricing details on its new-for-2014 ATS Coupe. The new model, which will be available with buyer's choice of a 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder or a 3.6-liter V6 (the ATS Sedan's base 2.5 won't be making the trip) can be had with optional all-wheel-drive in place of the standard rear-wheel setup, while customers can also snag a six-speed manual or six-speed auto.
Prices start at $37,995, which represents a $2,900 premium over the 2014 ATS Sedan (pricing on the 2015 four-door isn't available yet) with the same 2.0-liter engine. Still, the ATS Coupe starts at just over $2,500 less than a base BMW 428i, which is also less powerful and offers less standard equipment. The Caddy is also less costly than the Mercedes-Benz C250 Coupe, although only by about $200. It's even cheaper than the Audi A5, which starts at $38,105, but that model includes all-wheel drive as standard. It should be noted that these prices are without their respective destination charges (*$995 for the Caddy, $925 each for the BMW and the Mercedes and $895 for the Audi).
Unfortunately, Cadillac hasn't released any additional pricing information beyond what we have here, so we can't tell you how much things like all-wheel drive, an automatic transmission or the 321-horsepower V6 will cost. That makes it difficult to figure out just how reasonable the ATS Coupe will be relative to its challengers, but so far, the value equation looks to be in the car's favor. When those full details roll in, though, you know where to look. Scroll down for the official press release from Cadillac.
eBay Find of the Day: Ryan Gosling Eldorado from Lost River
Thu, Apr 9 2015What's better than a car connected to Ryan Gosling? A car connected to Ryan Gosling and Matt Smith (the eleventh Doctor Who for our less nerdy readers). This 1966 Cadillac Eldorado convertible is driven by Smith in Lost River, Gosling's directorial debut. The movie was filmed in Detroit, with plenty of footage at the Packard factory, and the car is located in the nearby enclave of Hamtramck. Truth be told, this car has questionable star appeal and it needs a lot of work. Lost River currently holds a 20% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes. I've never seen an episode of any Doctor Who – a fact that amazes Seyth Miersma. And while I agree with Kroll Show character Wendell Shawn that Gosling is a "beautiful idiot," that's not enough for me to buy a car with an exhaust leak. The body on this Eldorado looks clean, but there is plenty of restoration work for the next owner. The listing states that most of the exterior and trim needs to be installed, and the front seats are in rough shape. Other details are vague – the carburetor "might need to be rebuilt" and the radiator and fan "may need to be replaced" but neither statements explain why. On the upside, the 340 horsepower (gross rating), 429 cubic inch V8 runs well. Reserve is not met at the current price of $4,000, but this could be a chance to get a classic '60's convertible for cheap.

2017 GMC Canyon steals Cadillac's V6 for a little more power
Mon, Aug 29 2016GMC is fortifying the Canyon with a new powertrain and two new trim levels for 2017. GMC will give the Canyon the 3.6-liter V6 found in the Cadillac ATS, CTS, CT6, and XT5 crossover. The engine will be matched to an eight-speed automatic transmission, which also can be found on Cadillacs, the new 2017 Colorado, and other General Motors vehicles. The new engine comes with variable valve timing, improved direct injection, and Active Fuel Management, which is a form of cylinder deactivation that shuts off two cylinders to increase fuel efficiency and performance. Power is up from 305 to 308 horsepower, while torque increases from 269 to 275 pound-feet of torque compared to the old 3.6-liter V6. With the new transmission, the Canyon benefits from a higher first gear ratio, which should help drivers get off the line more easily when towing large cargo, and lower overdrive ratios for improved fuel efficiency. The 2016 model had a six-speed automatic. The Colorado also gets the eight-speed transmission for '17. GMC previously announced the All Terrain X and Denali models. The All Terrain X trim is offered on the SLE model and comes with the new 3.6-liter V6 engine or the 2.8-liter Duramax turbo-diesel. The All Terrain X gets Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac P225/65R17 all-terrain tires, a body-color grille surround and matching rear step bumper, bespoke 17-inch aluminum wheels, and a spray-on bedliner. The truck also is fortified with Hill Descent Control and an off-road suspension. The Denali carries the flag as the most luxurious Canyon model and gets a Bose seven-speaker audio system, more chrome, and interior upgrades. In addition to the new models and the powertrain, the 2017 Canyon will be offered with new colors – Dark Slate Metallic, Mineral Metallic, and Red Quartz Metallic – a new IntelliLink radio with a seven-inch touchscreen, a heated steering wheel as an optional extra, and Standard Teen Driver Mode. The 2017 Canyon, with all of its changes, will be available in the fourth quarter of the year.
