The trunk lock I think I might keep just as a keeps sake, It will be a bill sale only, as with original sales ad and bill of sale from owner I bought it from. The seats ARE ALL THEIR rear """jump seats""" are in great shape they all the only part of the interior that is still preserved from being folded up inside the back of the front seat. Pass rear tire loses air over night. it has all 4 original rims and hub caps.
limo has history from sun valley resort in Idaho
Here is the story of how I bought it.
I was living in Hailey Idaho, in 1999 a friend and I were 4x4ing and sticking out of the entrance of the triumph silver mines just south of sun valley was this Cadillac.
I was selling cars at a local dealership and he called me a few weeks after and ask me to see if I would find out if it was for sale, 5 months later it was, $5000 in the local paper. I called, went, spoke, and towed it away. His wife said No way. thus I was pinched for the cost, I towed it to Southern Cal replaced the wheal bearing, brakes, tune up and took it for a test drive.
Moved to Northern cal, pulled the engine and tranny out and swapped it with what is in now. I do not have the engine and tranny I pulled due the fact I gave it away 9 years ago, some guy put it in his qtr mile race truck. The engine runs, I have done 3 oil changes and every time its chocolate milk, all other parts that are missing in pics are in trunk. A few missing parts are missing but obtainable. When I bought it, I went to the resort and library were there are over 2 dozen photos of 2 limos sitting in front of resort with famous actors politicians and Ernest Hemingway himself sitting on hood/bumper with Cary Grant. call the resort to confirm. The other limo is in Utah, being used as a taxi was what I was told.
I bought a pass side front door and other misc stainless parts, the only parts that are missing are the rear qtr chrome fins that go on the bullet shaped parts on the rear qtrs, the pass rear door and pass rear qtr panel need some metal shaping and or replacing, you can get a pass rear door for $800 from cadillac parts on line, they say they have it. I have had this for 15 years with a dream of restoring one day as a road trip cruiser. Its priced to sell. I replaced front windshield with used glass but still needs rubber weathering striping I called metro and they sent me a sample, needs front door vent glass and one rear door glass replaced, I made polycarbonate ones to seal it up due to rain and rats.
yes their might be a few thinking its a Cadillac Resort!

2019 Autoblog Technology of the Year finalists revealed

Fri, Jan 4 2019

Every fall, we line up a range of new models with the latest and most compelling automotive technology from the past year. We test everything from semi-autonomous systems like Tesla's Autopilot to trick suspension setups like the Multimatic spool-valve shocks on the Chevy Colorado ZR2. We spend months paring down the list to a small group of contenders. After testing, dinner and healthy debate, we tally up the votes and name our winner. For Autoblog's 2019 Technology of the Year Award, our three finalists are the Cadillac CT6 with Super Cruise, the Infiniti QX50 with Variable Compression Turbo and the Mercedes-AMG E 53 with EQ Boost. Super Cruise is an advanced SAE Level 2 semi-autonomous system, though Cadillac (unlike some of its rivals) is reluctant to push that point. Cadillac would like you to think of this as an advanced driver assistance feature rather than a semi-autonomous system. Super Cruise allows completely hands-free highway driving. Thanks to a driver-facing camera, the system forces the driver to keep his or her eyes on the road even if hands are off the wheel. Although the CT6 is being discontinued, look for Super Cruise to make its way to other Cadillacs soon. VC Turbo is a little more complicated. Basically, Infiniti's 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four can vary the compression ratio on the fly. In general, turbocharged engines are more efficient than naturally-aspirated engines when on boost, but can perform worse at low revs. VC Turbo allows for a best-of-both-worlds situation, increasing the compression at low revs and backing it off once the turbo spools up. The best part is that it does so seamlessly, with only a dash readout letting you know what's going on under the hood. Our third finalist is the EQ Boost 48-volt system in the Mercedes-AMG E 53. Like VC Turbo, EQ Boost does a lot just beneath the surface. Mercedes has developed a new turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six and paired it with a small electric motor. While the car can't run on electricity alone, the motor helps improve both efficiency and performance, smoothing shifts and filling in low-end torque before the turbos spool up. Think torque fill, similar to a McLaren P1. Who can complain about better fuel economy and more torque? Look for the 48-volt system to make its way into most of the Mercedes-Benz lineup. The winner will be revealed next week on Autoblog, and we'll present the award Jan. 15 at the Detroit Auto Show. Related Video:

2012 is almost in the books and automakers are spending December gearing up for the 2013 auto show season, which tips off next month at the Detroit Auto Show. Traditionally, the latter opens up with the announcement of the North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards, and this year figures to be no different.
But up until this moment, we didn't know which six vehicles would be parked ahead of the stage as finalists, with executives and engineers waiting for the winners to be disclosed. Whittled down from October's "short list" of nominees (11 cars and 10 truck/utility vehicles), the finalists are as follows:
