Offered for auction is this outstanding mostly original 1950 62 Series sedan. Condition of the vehicle for 63 years is remarkable and indicates exceptional care and maintenance. The body is totally rust free and underneath is very clean with no evidence of rust or corrosion. This is NOT a North East vehicle. Beautiful Hampden Blue(original color, repainted in 1969) with gray interior. The interior is near perfect with original door panels, headliner, and back seat. The front seat supposedly has been redone in the past. Hard to determine. Carpets have been replaced. Perfect dash and steering wheel. All instruments work with the exception of ammeter gauge which has been by-passed. Explanation is covered later in description. Clock currently does not work. Wonderbar radio plays as it should including back seat speaker. Vacuum radio antenna works. All glass is in excellent condition with date codes (3/50-4/50). All exterior chrome is in excellent condition including die cast. The "V" on hood was recently re-plated due to flattened/thin chrome after 63 years. Only blemishes are on ends of bumpers. All exterior lights function as they should with 6v halogen headlights and 6v LED tailights. Much better at night time and brighter stop lights.
Engine runs exceptionally strong with 30lb oil pressure and close to that at idle. Much rebuilt or new by previous owner (carb, fuel pump, radiator, water pump, brakes, brake lines, brake cylinders, etc.) Cooling system was recently serviced, drained, flushed, new thermostat, defroster hoses were installed. Previous owner had the transmission rebuilt. Braking is outstanding with a Wilwood dual master cylinder with remote reservoir in left fender well all mounted on custom made brackets. Can easily be returned to original. Original master cylinder is with the car.

Cadillac back on track with 600-hp ATS-V.R racer in FIA GT3 spec [w/video]
Fri, 14 Nov 2014There was already a rumor brewing that Cadillac might eschew the CTS as its racecar next season in favor of the ATS Coupe. It turns out that is absolutely the case, and now we know just what this 600-horsepower, future racer looks like. The coupe might not be limited to competing in just the US, though, because it's built to FIA GT3-specifications, meaning that this Caddy is also eligible to race in over 30 series worldwide against the likes of Bentley, McLaren, Audi and other premium brands.
The heart of this massively winged Cadillac is an engine dubbed the LF4.R. It's based around the unit in the production ATS-V and CTS Vsport but with larger turbos, bigger intercoolers, side exhausts and other tricks. Cadillac claims it makes a monstrous 600 hp and 520 pound-feet of torque in unrestricted form.
As the photo above shows, the ATS-V.R also wears an aggressive aero kit with a carbon fiber front splitter, and a wing at the back that could probably double as a picnic table in a pinch. The dry weight of the whole package is quoted at about 2,900 pounds, which is around 700 pounds less than the street version.
Mary Barra thinks GM is a leader in autonomous tech
Thu, Oct 15 2015Saying General Motors is "among the leaders" in autonomous vehicle technology, CEO Mary Barra rapped about her company's driverless work in an interview with USA Today. Barra covered a number of topics, including well-known efforts, like Cadillac's upcoming Super Cruise technology, as well as hinting at "a lot of efforts that are confidential." "Things are moving quickly in autonomous [cars] because there's so many different pathways and the standards aren't even set. A lot of people can claim leads because people are making advancements in different areas," Barra said. "Next year we're going to have Super Cruise on one of our Cadillacs. On highways you'll be able to take your hands off the wheel and feet off the pedals – with a very creative way to make sure the driver is alert and involved in the driving process." As for those "confidential" efforts, feel free to speculate. GM has recently confirmed that it'd be running autonomous Volts at its Warren, MI tech center, which certainly indicates that the company is playing with much more than Super Cruise. GM will need to continue to embrace autonomous driving, owing to both traditional competitors like Toyota, as well as non-traditional opposition, like Google and Apple. Speaking of its competition from Silicon Valley, Barra was asked about two of the region's biggest names – Apple's Tim Cook and Tesla boss Elon Musk. "I have tremendous respect for Tim Cook, and I don't really think he needs advice from me," Barra told USA Today with a laugh. And when asked about Apple's future as a "viable competitor," she said, "I have no insights other than what I read in the papers. But it would be foolish for me not to assume that they're going to." As for Mr. Musk's openness about future products and how it contrasts with GM's relatively closed attitude, Barra also gave a chuckle. "I'm sure you would like me to say yes. I think we're fundamentally different. Look at our volume and look at the segments where we compete. His product line – his two products – his scale, it's completely different." The rest of Barra's interview is certainly worth a read, and includes talk about the Volkswagen diesel scandal, GM's changed relationship with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, and Uber.
