1976 Cadillac Fleetwood 60 Special sedan.  Breathtaking gorgeous original color combination of white exterior with a white and black interior.  Nearly fully loaded and also has the scarce for 1976 electrically sliding glass Astro-roof option.  I have owned the car about five years and it is originally from Wisconsin, which is where it has spent its whole life in a garaged enviroment.  The car is all original, has never been repainted or reupholstered.  A tiny bit of rust is begining in a spot around the roofline and there is a scratch that has been touched up on the drivers side front fender.  There are two very minor cracks in the rear armrests.  The cruise control, clock, and power antenna stopped working as well.   The car shows and drives very well as a daily driver with clean carpets, very nice leather seats with cold AC and all other options working as intended.  The 500 CID Engine runs strong with no oil usage and cruises effortlessly at highway speeds all day. I get compliments and positive reactions every time I go out in this car.  Drive as is and drive all day doing it!

Colors are very important in vintage cars, and you don't get much better than this for a beautiful stunning color combination.  The Cotillion white exterior with white original elk grain padded roof look great while the white seats set off the black dash and carpets very nicely inside.  Also note the steering wheel, mine is still in perfect condition with no chunking, both upper and lower dashes are in perfect shape as well.  No cracks or scratches in the glass as well.  Has the rear defog built into the rear glass that works fine too.

The car comes complete with original owners manual, shop manual, 1976 Cadillac 8-Track tape, and the ad from a newspaper where the car was originally sold back in '76.  If you have the chance, please inspect the car for yourself or have it inspected during the run of this auction.  Inspections are welcome anytime during this period.  Car is sold as is and where is with no warranties expressed or implied.  Remember this is the last year for the traditional full sized Cadillac before the downsizing trend began in 1977, so this is truly the last of a breed of gentlemanly civilizied truly American luxury cars. If you are looking for a original gorgeous 1976 Cadillac Fleetwood with desirable rare options then this car is for you. Write with any questions or additional photos, or call 301-767-5503

Cadillac issues stop sale on ATS to recall 82k units

Wed, Jul 29 2015

Cadillac is issuing a recall on 82,620 examples of the 2013-2016 ATS worldwide to fix a compliance issue with the sunroof controls. Until a service bulletin goes out to take care of things, there's also a stop sale on the luxury compact in the United States, The Detroit News reports. Of the affected models, 63,665 are in the US, according to a statement sent to Autoblog, and 7,922 of them are in Canada. The problem is actually the same issue as a recall on nearly 59,000 examples of the 2013-2015 ATS in the US in February. In them, the controls for the tilt and slide of the roof aren't recessed enough to meet government standards for the force necessary to operate the buttons. The Feds believe that someone could accidentally activate the auto-close and potentially be at risk. At the time, Cadillac dealers installed a new trim plate to add the needed clearance. In the latest update, the company is adding the 2016 model year, and according to The Detroit News, 70 percent of the cars from the original campaign also need another new trim plate. Unsurprisingly for such a minor defect, there are no known crashes, injuries, fatalities, or customer complaints related to this issue, according to the announcement by General Motors. Cadillac ATS Statement: General Motors is recalling 63,665 Cadillac ATS sedans in the United States from the 2013-2016 model years because the power-operated roof panel systems on these vehicles will auto-close when the non-recessed portion of the "Slide" or "Tilt" switches are pressed and the roof panel is open. Because these switches are not fully recessed, they can be actuated with less force than required to comply with applicable federal standards. GM knows of no crashes, injuries or fatalities related to this issue and has received no customer complaints. The total population of the recall including Canada, Mexico and exports is 82,620. Transport Canada Recall # 2015322 Recall Date 2015/07/21 Notification Type Compliance Mfr System Electrical Manufacturer Recall Number 15568 Units Affected The number of vehicles or components affected by the recall. 7,922 Category Car Recall Details Certain vehicles equipped with power-operated sunroof system may fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 118 - Power-Operated Window, Partition and Roof Panel Systems.

GM lays off 450 at Lansing Grand River Assembly

Mon, Dec 8 2014

General Motors will lay off 450 employees at its Lansing Grand River factory, The Detroit News reports, which is 100 more than the company said it'd be letting go last month. Lansing Grand River Assembly currently builds the Cadillac ATS and CTS, both of which have suffered sluggish sales, with the smaller sedan down 20 percent through last month and the larger model down 2.3 percent, The Detroit News reports. "We are adjusting plant production capacity to better align with market demand. Beginning in January 2015, the plant will operate on a single shift," a GM statement read, before explaining that not all the laid off Grand River employees will be jobless. Of the employees that have been laid off to make room for the single work shift, around 200 will transfer to the Lansing Delta Township factory, home of the Lambda-platform crossovers, GM's statement confirmed. The News expects this one-shift arrangement to continue until at least late next year, when the Alpha-platform Chevy Camaro transitions from General Motors' Oshawa, Ontario factory to Lansing. Cadillac President Johan de Nysschen said at last month's LA Auto Show, "It may not necessarily be permanent, a time may come when we've gained momentum and we can reinstate it. But for now, the adjustment to production capacity is in alignment with our plans for 2015."

Cadillac teases camo'd ELR ahead of Detroit debut

Tue, 08 Jan 2013

With the 2014 Cadillac ELR being introduced next week at the Detroit Auto Show, General Motors has revealed another picture of its luxury range extended electric vehicle. Last month, we saw a dark, teaser photo showing some of the body detail for the electric coupe, but this recent photo shows the Cadillac in full camouflage testing in California back in September.
If this car looks familiar, it's because our spy shooters got a jump on GM by catching the car in action and providing pictures from all angles. There are still no official details for the ELR yet aside from the fact that it will share the Voltec system with the Chevrolet Volt, but we'll finally see the car unveiled in Detroit a week from today.
