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

GM outlines strategy for new products, growth in China
Wed, 01 Oct 2014
"Our strategic plan is a pathway to earn customers for life and create significant shareholder value in the process." - Mary Barra
General Motors laid out ambitious plans on Wednesday to become the world's "most valued automotive company," a goal it says it can reach by strengthening its business in China, rebuilding the Cadillac luxury brand and fixing the foundering GM Europe operations.
Why Cadillac is willing to lose 43 percent of its dealers
Sun, Sep 25 2016Cadillac is offering about 400 dealers in the United States a lump sum of money to close down. That represents over 40 percent of Cadillac dealers in America. Offers start at $100,000 and top out at $180,000. The average offering is around $120,000. According to Automotive News, Cadillac chief Johan De Nysschen estimates it will cost the automaker around $50 million to close these dealers. Any dealer that chooses to remain open will have to submit to Cadillac's ambitious Project Pinnacle, which will divide dealers into incentive categories based on how many units they sell. "Every single Cadillac dealer will have the potential to earn significantly higher profits than they do today," says De Nysschen. Dealers have until November 21 to decide if they want to take the cash or submit to Project Pinnacle. A logical question: Why is Cadillac willing to spend $50 million to close down 43 percent of its dealers? First, GM's luxury brand has way more dealerships than it needs. Second, the 400 dealers with offers to shutter each sold 50 or fewer vehicles in 2015, representing just 9 percent of its sales volume in America. So, while closing these smaller dealerships may have a small initial impact on sales, it's not going to be a major hit to Cadillac.

Cadillac ELR next EV to get Plugless Power wireless charging tech
Mon, Jul 28 2014Evatran has been testing its Plugless Power wireless charging systems for electric vehicles in the Chevy Volt and Nissan Leaf for years now and made the tech commercially available early this year. With the growth of the EV market, Evatran is getting ready to expand as well. The company announced today that it will add three premium EVs to the Plugless Power system by the end of the year, with the first (and so far only) named model being the Cadillac ELR. We expect it was not difficult for Evatran to adapt the Plugless Power system to the ELR, since the vehicle's powertrain is so similar to the one in the Volt. The main problem we see is that Cadillac has only sold 390 ELRs (as of the end of June), so this first Plugless Power expansion isn't exactly going to ignite sales, even if every ELR owner opts for the cool tech. If one of the next two announcement is for the Tesla Model S, though, then you're talking numbers. Speaking of the future, what models do you think will be next? The Plugless Power L2 wireless systems were recently declared safe by the Intertek and start at $2,470, not including installation or government incentives. All the online/smartphone connectivity features that work with the car when it's got a cord stuck in it work with the L2 system, Evatran says. Orders start today, and the ELR package will be available September 1. There's more, including a local news report on the technology, below. WSLS 10 NBC in Roanoke/Lynchburg Va Wireless Vehicle Charging available to Cadillac ELR owners starting September 1st The Cadillac ELR Joins the Growing List of Compatible Electric Vehicle ("EV") Models from Evatran, the World Leader in High-Power Wireless Charging RICHMOND, VA July 28, 2014 – In an exciting statement today, Evatran Group, Inc. ("Evatran"), announced that its PLUGLESS wireless charging technology would soon be available on the Cadillac ELR. Evatran, the first Company in the world to make wireless charging available to individual EV drivers, currently has systems that are compatible with the Nissan LEAF and Chevrolet Volt. The Cadillac ELR is the first model to be announced in what is intended to be three new premium model announcements by the end of 2014. Evatran will begin accepting advanced orders today for deliveries as soon as September 1st. "The launch of the Cadillac ELR system is an important milestone for us," commented Rebecca Hough, Evatran CEO and Co-Founder.
