up for auction is a 1985 cadillac eldorado convertible for restoration.I am selling for a friend who recently faced a disability and can no longer pursue the project.The car does start and runs but seems to leak anti freeze from somewhere(was told it was the head gasket)and also has the coolant temp light on the dash there is no antifreeze present in the oil, the body is solid with very little rusting,all electrical does work including the convertible top,the passenger side window will not go up but seems to be the only issue with the car,no other warning lights are present besides the coolant temp.

The odometer reads 31k which I as told from previous seller are all original, the title and owners manual are available, the overall body is solid,the exterior has fading and will need a paint job,the trunk is dented(white replacement trunk included) the asc convertible top needs replacement,the original interior of the car was white with red accents but in very rough condition(pics included),I have began swapping interior from a 1982 coupe purchased  for parts to give the car a complete red interior(door panels ad front seats are in will need rear seat the seats from the coupe are wider), the convertible is not finished but all parts are there to complete it.

the car has only been in possession for a month before the injury occurred and not too much is known about the car.I ask that all potential buyers ask any and all questions before bidding.again this is a restoration/project vehicle and is being sold as is where is.buyer is responsible for their own shipping of vehicle.the car is for sale locally I reserve the right to cancel the auction at anytime.

Relisting due to non paying bidder Please do not bid if you do not have intentions to buy

GM announces six new recalls, covering 3.5 million vehicles

Mon, 16 Jun 2014

General Motors has just initiated another crushingly large recall, this time affecting some 3.36 million vehicles built between 2000 and 2014 and sold in the US, Canada and Mexico. Once again, the issue surrounds the cars' ignition switches, which can be kicked out of the run position if they're carrying extra weight or if they experience a "jarring" event. In this particular case, though, GM will modify the keys, rather than the ignition itself.
A four-by-six-millimeter hole will be drilled into the key, which will more safely accommodate the weight of the key ring. As is usually the case, the work will be done free of charge. The recalled vehicles include the 2000 to 2005 Cadillac Deville, 2004 to 2005 Buick Regal LS and GS, 2004 to 2011 Cadillac DTS, 2005 to 2009 Buick Lacrosse, 2006 to 2008 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, 2006 to 2011 Buick Lucerne and 2006 to 2014 Chevrolet Impala. Only the Impala is still in production, and even then, it's only sold to fleet companies.
According to an official statement from GM, there have been eight crashes and six injuries due to this latest issue. As if this isn't a dire enough blow for GM, the company has announced five smaller recalls, covering 165,000 vehicles.

Is this the 2014-15 Cadillac Escalade?

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

Following the introduction of the redesigned Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, we're expecting General Motors won't wait too much longer to show off the next-generation fullsize SUVs that share this platform - including the Cadillac Escalade. It's still not clear if the next Escalade will debut for the 2014 or 2015 model years, but Carscoops has what it claims to an exclusive first look of the new Cadillac, revealing a portion of the headlight, front fascia and wheel.
Judging from this small picture, it looks like the Escalade could incorporate styling cues that we've seen on new Cadillac models like the ELR and the 2014 CTS, but that article says that other design details could include tall, vertical taillights similar to the CTS Wagon, staggered-width wheels and a narrower daylight opening for the side windows. The last time we saw the fourth-generation 'Slade back in October in spy shots, the heavy camouflage prevented us from getting an idea of the luxury SUV's appearance, but this image and description gives us something to look forward to. Head on over to Carscoops for more potential information as well as a full rendering from back in January.

2014 Cadillac CTS configurator open for business

Thu, 26 Sep 2013

Cadillac has just set the new configurator for the redesigned, 2014 CTS live. While we've already tested out the new CTS, this is our first chance to play with all the interior and exterior color options and to get a fair idea of the price. The new CTS covers a broad swath from the $46,025 base model, with the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, to the $59,995 VSport, complete with its brawny, 3.6-liter twin-turbocharged V6.
It doesn't take much to send the CTS's price up from there, though. Opt for the VSport Premium trim, and the price immediately jumps $10,000. Opting for one of the premium paint colors is all that's needed to nudge the CTS past $70,000. For reference, a 556-horsepower CTS-V (previous-generation, naturally) starts at $64,515.
Click over and have a look at the configurator for yourself.
