1953 Cadillac Fleetwood 4 Door 60s (model 6019sx) Full Restoration 7 Years Ago on 2040-cars
Hugo, Minnesota, United States
|
This 1953 Cadillac Fleetwood Four Door 60S is an almost perfect example of one of the most luxurious cars built in that era. There were only 109,651 Cadillacs built that year including all models and of that total only 20,000 were Fleetwood 60S models. This was the top of the line Cadillac most being purchased by Doctors, Lawyers, Corporate CEO's and other top professionals. Today, only 2,200 of these rare Fleetwoods remain on State auto registries, with an estimated additional 2,000 spread around in junk yards across the Country. The 1953 Model was the first of the Cadillacs to utilize the 12 volt electrical system, and the one piece rear window. The engine for 53 was a 331 Cu In V8, rated at 210 HP. Transmissions were either GM Hydramatic, or Dynaflow depending on whether the car was built before or after the big fire at the Hydramatic production facility. This car is equipped with the Hydramatic Automatic Transmission. The speedometer shows 25,890 and that appears to be authentic when one reads the restoration records for the car. This fine automobile spend most of it's life in Connecticut and later in the early 2000's it shows up in Wisconsin records. In 2010 the car was documented by an appraisal service in Cloquet, Minnesota and it was most recently appraised by a service in White Bear Lake, MN in February of 2014. That appraisal listed the cars value at from 60,000 to 70,000. The receipt file is extensive to say the least - with over $25,000 in chrome plating alone. The file goes on and on, Professional engine rebuild, transmission, radiator, generator, transmission cooler, new tires, glass, window regulators, window rubbers and the list of small detail parts purchased is endless. The photos tell the story - look them over good. The car drives like a Cadillac should. Smooth, quiet, and fairly quick for it's age and weight. This is luxury once you sit in these couch like seats. The interior is just a perfect as the exterior, the dash board is just exquisite in detail and class. We can be of some assistance with shipping arrangements if that is required, just let us know in advance. Call before bidding for details that may be missing in the description. Car has a clear title and is ready to be transferred to you right away. Sixonetwo Sevenfiveone Five0sevennine will get me anytime during the day in the central time zone for questions. If the asking price seems to be out of your range, just let me know and I can potentially list a "buy it now" price for you that meets your needs. Lets get this car to it's new owner quickly. Thanks for looking, appreciated! Jerry.

Cadillac Elmiraj has production potential
Tue, 20 Aug 2013There are many reasons to love the Cadillac Elmiraj Concept, but not the least of which is how production-ready this big coupe appears to be. Take out the overly fancy interior and a few conceptual elements of the exterior, and this looks like a coupe that could be in dealers now as the successor to the Eldorado.
On top of that, Automotive News is quoting Bob Ferguson, Cadillac senior vice president, as saying that a production version of this car is "very doable." AN adds that if the Monterey showstopper gets the green-light, this car would compete against the upcoming Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe and would based on Cadillac's upcoming rear-wheel-drive flagship sedan due out in 2015. The range-topping coupe would debut sometime after the sedan model. Cross your fingers.
2015 Cadillac ATS sedan gets early reveal in making-of video
Mon, 30 Jun 2014Cadillac is apparently preparing to roll out a minor facelift for the ATS sedan - which we know not because General Motors has already revealed it or because we're looking at it in a fresh batch of spy shots (though we've seen that too), but because a behind-the-scenes video from the filming of its commercial has leaked out online. Which may be bad news for Cadillac, and even worse news for the film production company, but good news for us, because we get to see it ahead of schedule.
The revised sports sedan seems to be sporting a new front bumper and less egg-cratey grille with Caddy's new wreath-less badge at its center, all apparently put in place to bring the sedan more in line with the new ATS coupe.
We're sure Cadillac will be revealing the updated 2015 ATS sedan shortly, but you can scope it out right now in the video below. By way of comparison, we've included an image gallery of the current ATS, released back in 2013, as well.
2016 Cadillac CTS-V to hit dealers this summer, start at $83,995*
Wed, Apr 29 2015Cadillac has announced pricing for the 640-horsepower CTS-V, and not only will the new super-sedan outgun its heartiest German rivals, it'll undercut them on price, too. Kicking off at $83,995 (not including a $995 destination charge), the CTS-V is nearly $10,000 less than the 560-hp BMW M5, almost $18,000 less than the 577-hp Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S 4Matic, and is nearly $25,000 less than the 560-hp Audi RS7. So in case you were wondering, yes, the CTS-V will continue to be one of the auto industry's very best high-performance bargains in its third generation. "V-Series represents the pinnacle of Cadillac, a brand that now makes drivers' cars at the highest level," Cadillac's head honcho Johan de Nysschen said in a statement. "The new CTS-V is essentially two cars in one: a luxury sedan with sophisticated road manners and a track-capable sports car with awe-inspiring performance. This type of car is exclusive, the domain of the few who can access this level of incredible capability. V-Series matches or overtakes the finest cars in this elite class, while being more accessible." As for when you can get your hands on bargain-priced beast, dealers are now accepting orders, with deliveries slated to begin late this summer. Scroll on down for the official release from Cadillac. Next-Generation 640-hp Cadillac CTS-V Launches This Summer U.S. DEALERS BEGIN ACCEPTING ORDERS NOW FOR CADILLAC'S UPCOMING PERFORMANCE ICON DETROIT – Cadillac announced today that U.S. dealers will begin accepting orders for the next-generation 2016 CTS-V, the all-new high-performance sedan that launches in late summer. The 640-hp CTS-V is the second of two all-new V-Series models to come to market in 2015, following the smaller ATS-V coupe and sedan, which launches in late spring. Cadillac's new 2016 V-Series models represent a significant expansion of the brand's elite, high-performance line. Not only are the new V-Series cars elevated in terms of performance, they now reach a broader spectrum of drivers by presenting two distinct personalities, size categories and price points. With a top speed of 200 mph and 0-60 performance in 3.7 seconds, the CTS-V is the most powerful car in Cadillac's 112-year history. The 2016 CTS-V is priced from $83,995. Customers can place orders now with dealers and view additional product information at Cadillac.com. The CTS-V elevates into the elite group of the world's highest-performing sedans.
