1957 Cadillac Series 60 Fleetwood on 2040-cars
Saint Paul, Minnesota, United States
I have come a long way with this 1957 Cadillac Fleetwood. Last few years though, she's just sitting. Needs seats redone, interior installed, minor bodywork yet and ready for paint. Was stripped bare, body sealed, doors jambed. Seems every thousand I put in, I have to wait 6 months to do more. Recently purchased $1300 in tires for it, and sold my soul for the original Fleetwood ribbed rear bumper with NOS 1957 rear bumper ends. YES, THEY ARE NOS BUMPER ENDS I HAVE THE BOXES. I have 3 dashes worth of chrome, engine has been rebuilt and detailed, transmission has been rebuilt, driveshaft rebuilt. Still needs emergency brake cables replaced (supplied) and the windshield was bad so I removed it planning to do the dash soon. I have an excellent original windshield to put back in, but it has a scratch near the top so you may not want it. I have all the interior parts finished factory materials, all done by SMS in Washington. Door panels are perfect, all seat materials and leather are included, carpets, kick panels, b pillars and headliner are all included. Gas tank has been sealed, everything is mostly done. I have simply run out of time and money, probably have over 22K into it already. Selling for best offer over 12. I will box up everything I have for it, lights included. Foglights are NOS. Grille has been restored Gold. I will make sure it rolls, runs fine for pick-up. But it really can't be driven without a windshield. Dash has not been started, so easy to take apart, install and paint new, reassemble with NEW CustomAutoSound Stereo and New SWEDEN made Dashpad. Everything is included. Title is clear. Buyer arranges pick-up and shipping. Please call with questions or to see it (651) 488-4890

2014 Cadillac ELR is making green sexy in Detroit
Tue, 15 Jan 2013
In terms of styling, inside and out, the ELR hits the ball out of the park.
Cadillac has pulled the wraps off of its newest family member, the long-rumored, Voltec-powered, eye-catching extended range hybrid coupe called the ELR. The car makes use of the same basic architecture as the Chevrolet Volt, but has been thoroughly layered on with design, technology and performance tuning - with the goal of being a properly situated product for the Cadillac brand.
GM recalling another 2.7 million vehicles in five separate campaigns
Thu, 15 May 2014The recalls keep rolling in from General Motors, evidently keen to avoid repeating the mistakes of the ignition-switch debacle and clean house. This time they're all coming at once, with five separate recalls announced together covering approximately 2.7 million vehicles.
The largest of the five actions involves over 2.4 million units of the previous-generation Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura in order to fix brake light wiring harness, which have been found to be susceptible to corrosion. The recall is separate from the 56k Aura sedans which GM recently recalled over faulty shift cables, not to mention the previous massive recall of 1.3 million vehicles - some of them the same models - but appears to have resulted from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation that started with the G6 almost a year ago.
The second-largest campaign involves the 2014 Chevy Malibu, specifically those fitted with GM's 2.5-liter engine and stop/start system, approximately 140,000 examples of which has been found to have problematic brakes. The issue does not appear to be connected to the recall of 8k Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans (also involving brake woes) which we reported upon last week. Four crashes have been reported in such models, but GM admits it's not yet clear if the problem was a contributing factor in the accidents.
Cadillac toned down ATS Coupe design due to customer feedback [w/poll]
Tue, 02 Sep 2014Automakers always face a difficult decision when it comes to styling their cars. Design them too blandly and nobody will get excited about them. But style them too aggressively and they'll often end up turning off potential buyers.
Cadillac, for its part, is no stranger to aggressive design, but when it came to the new ATS Coupe, it elected to tone things down a bit. Speaking with The Detroit News in a wide-ranging interview, Cadillac design director Bob Boniface revealed that the original design for its compact coupe was edgier - closer to that of the CTS Coupe - with a wedgier profile, a more steeply raked beltline and a more severe grille. But potential customers surveyed in clinics apparently didn't like it. They found it looked heavy, inefficient and not fun to drive. So Boniface and his team literally went back to the drawing board and "took as much visual mass out of the car as [they] could." The resulting coupe, while handsome, looks far more similar to its four-door companion than did Cadillac's CTS.
What do you think, does the new ATS Coupe look just right, or is it too conservative? Voice your opinion in our quick online poll.
