First, thanks for looking. Here we have a 1984 Fleetwood Brougham De Elegance. I purchased the car from an older gentleman in Denver, CO when I lived in CO. He inherited the car from his brother who bought It new from Rickenbaugh Cadillac. It was always very well cared for and had just under 50K miles when I purchased it. The original motor was bad and I replaced it with a professionally rebuilt 425 Cadillac V-8. The original TBI was adapted to the old Cadillac manifold and the motor is powered by new Chevy 454 throttle body fuel injectors. The motor runs well and averages low teens mpg. The highest I have yet to achieve is 20 mpg on the freeway. This motor can put out an excess amount of torque/PWR such that caution must be used so as to not destroy the stock THM-200R4 transmission! This very we'll may be the only Fuel injected 4 speed/overdrive big block Cadillac Fleetwood out there! Everything works on this Cadillac as it should except that the A/C has never been charged since the motor conversion. I believe this Fleetwood has every available option for 1984 except moonroof. This is a nice one of a kind Cadillac. The paint is nearly original and has checked/faded some. All in all a super Cadillac! Please email or call with questions. I have more than a dozen cars and intend on selling a few this year. Happy bidding! The auction will not end early; no buy it now option- period.
WILLING TO DELIVER FOR A FEE TO WINNING BUYER/bidder depending on distance & time.

Cadillac scraps three-row CUV plans

Fri, 23 May 2014

Crossovers are one of the hottest automotive segments on the planet. Apparently, the idea of mixing the practicality of a station wagon with the looks of an SUV appeals to people whether they are in Cleveland or Shanghai because nearly every automaker is jumping into the market. So it was no surprise when early rumors suggested Cadillac was planning two, new CUVs to fit above and below the SRX. But things might have changed since then.
New rumblings indicate Caddy is taking a different route. Instead of two crossovers, only the compact is on the way, and the larger, three-row CUV on the Lambda platform to sit between the SRX and Escalade may be a goner. According to Ward's Auto, General Motors thinks that the other three-row, Lambda vehicles like the Buick Enclave and GMC Acadia compete too closely with the proposed Cadillac. The decision comes fairly close to the 2017 intended production date.
As far back as 2010, this Lambda-platform based CUV was considered highly likely for production. However, Cadillac Senior Vice President Bob Ferguson was somewhat cooler about it when he discussed the new crossover briefly last year. He said the model could use the Escalade name, despite its unibody chassis, but no decision had been made yet to actually produce it.

Akerson says Cadillac will get a larger sedan within two years

Mon, 22 Jul 2013

It seems that during a recent affair showing off the 2014 Cadillac CTS, General Motors CEO Dan Akerson confirmed reports regarding a new Cadillac flagship sedan. According to USA Today, which Akerson was visiting, he said that a sedan larger than the XTS would debut within the next two years.
This matches up with what we heard earlier in the month about a Cadillac model that will go up against the BMW 7 Series and Mercedes-Benz S-Class (not a pricier, low-volume sedan also discussed in that article). But this is the first time a high-profile executive name has been attributed to such a report, and the first time a broad timeframe has been mentioned. This article adds that the unnamed car will be rear-, and all-wheel drive with a platform "loosely based" on the new CTS, with styling closer to that car than recent Cadillac concept vehicles. The XTS will continue production of course, as well.

GM considering new powertrain options for large SUVs

Tue, 15 Oct 2013

Aside from the new General Motors offerings, there's not a whole lot of action going on in the fullsize SUV segment. That doesn't seem to be stopping GM from pushing the envelope in the market as Automotive News is reporting that the automaker is looking to introduce some new powertrain options into the Chevy Tahoe (and Suburban), GMC Yukon (and Yukon XL) and the Cadillac Escalade - all have been redesigned for the 2015 model year.
Now, we already know that GM and Ford are collaborating on nine- and ten-speed transmissions for a broad range of applications (including the big SUVs), but this new report says that GM is also considering other options as a way to one-up the competition and, of course, to optimize fuel economy. AN quotes Jeff Luke, executive chief engineer for GM trucks, as saying that "interesting powertrain technologies" are coming including a return of a hybrid SUV and possibly even a diesel engine. Although it sounds like the latter could come down to how customers respond to the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel.
