1975 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible 2-door 8.2l on 2040-cars
Machipongo, Virginia, United States
|
Up for auction is my 1975 Cadillac El Dorado convertible. In my opinion, it is a very nice driver condition car that could use some minor tlc. 97K original miles running and driving car. It has all 4 new shocks on it and new sway bar bushings in the front. The interior is in excellent condition. No cracks in the dash. door pads are very nice. Original leather seats showing minimal wear and power seat that works. Carpet has some sun fading to it. The power windows all work and so does the power locks. It has cruise control, tilt and telescoping wheel. I have not tested the cruise though. The exterior of the car has been repainted at some point, back to it's original color as far as i can tell. The bumper extensions have been replaced at a later date and their paint does not match the car too well. The car has a nice shine to it still and looks great. It does have minor chips and scratches in a few places, consistent with it's age. There are also a couple small dings in it, but by no means a beat up old car. It gets lots of looks and attention. The top works but is showing it's age. I believe it to be original also. It is shrinking up on the sides some but not torn up and still does it's job. But you should plan to replace it at some point or store it indoors as i do. Under the hood looks very original but definitely could use detail work. The valve cover gaskets were leaking and new one's were put on but the covers could have been repainted in my opinion. The radiator has been replaced with a new aluminum one. It does have some things that need repaired. The power antenna does not work but it is in the up position and the radio picks up stations fine. The radio does not appear original as it is a cassette player. It does have the original cadillac knobs and the dash was not cut to install it. The a/c is complete and comes on but does not get cold, recharge is needed i'm guessing. The driver's side top latch handle is broken. There is enough left of it that it still latches with no problem, just want you to be aware of all i know. The tires should be replaced. They hold air fine but do show some dry rot and the right front does not match the other 3. It has a jack, but no spare. The horn does not work. There is a minor exhaust leak up front. Once again guessing, but it sounds like a doughnut on driver's side. The car still runs very quiet. Once again, i am trying to list all i know so there are no surprises. There is 1 spot of rust, at the bottom of the right front fender a couple inches long. i did clean out allot of leaves from inside that door jam and i believe that was the issue. It is shown in the pics. That is it for rust. The underside is very clean. All floors, trunk and quarters are very clean too. The chrome shines nice and it has all original hubcaps. I also have the owners manual with it. This is a nice clean car for it's age. I keep it indoors but i need the space. That is why i am listing it for sale. It would be a shame to have it sit outside, it's too nice for that. Any questions i can be reached at 302-531-5185 Zero feedback bidders must call me first or bid will be deleted. Listed locally and reserve the right to end auction if sold. Car needs to be paid for in 3 days, but can remain here if needed until you are able to pick it up. For a reasonable amount of time, remember i am only selling it because i cannot keep it stored inside much longer. 100% good feedback and i work to keep that. I list all i know and remember about the car, nothing to hide.

Cadillac HQ has a New York address
Sun, 16 Nov 2014The new home of Cadillac will be in the 330 Hudson building in New York City's Hudson Square, putting the luxury marque smack dab in the middle of three of the city's hippest areas, SoHo, Greenwich Village and Tribeca.
The announcement is yet another milestone in the company's controversial decision to relocate administrative and marketing operations away from Detroit and into the Big Apple.
"The addition of a headquarters office in New York is a key step in Cadillac's ongoing global expansion," Cadillac boss Johan de Nysschen said, according to The Detroit Free Press. "There is no better atmosphere in which to better immerse ourselves into luxury consumer and brand expertise."
Cadillac's de Nysschen takes aim at Porsche 911, Cayenne
Mon, Nov 24 2014Johan de Nysschen has big plans for Cadillac. He's moved the brand from Detroit to New York, revamped its model nomenclature, and planning a raft of new models for the near future – including a $250,000 luxury sedan to take on the likes of Rolls-Royce and Bentley. But the veteran executive of luxury automakers has some more performance-oriented machinery in mind, too. Speaking with Car and Driver at the Los Angeles Auto Show last week, de Nysschen suggested Cadillac could be ready to launch a flagship sports car sometime in the next decade. The halo model would take aim at the Porsche 911 and do for Cadillac what Audi did with the R8, Mercedes is doing with the AMG GT and Acura once did (and is aiming to do again) with the NSX. Just what form it would take remains a big unknown, but de Nysschen indicated that the brand would need to be built up further before the sports car would be launched, lest it emerge too detached from Cadillac's image. The last time Cadillac delved into that territory was with the Corvette-based XLR, of which it sold only 15,000 or so examples – far below initial targets. The 911 rival isn't the only performance model de Nysschen has in mind, however. He plans to further expand the V series into a more substantial sub-brand to include a crossover to take on the likes of the Porsche Cayenne Turbo, BMW X5 M and all those many AMG-tuned Mercedes utilities. The idea of an entry-level model to slot in below the ATS was mooted as well. A range of diesel engines are slated to help Cadillac break into overseas markets in similar fashion to how Maserati has expanded its market reach with oil-burning versions of the Ghibli and Quattroporte. And we wouldn't be surprised to see Cadillac get in on a new flagship SUV being launched by Opel in Europe, either.
