Cadillac Castilan Station Wagon.  Number 11 of 12 made in 1976 by Traditional Coach Works of Los Angeles California. 43k original miles and always garaged, no cracks on original dash, steering wheel (nor wood insert) , seats, etc.  Paper work history shows it to always be a dry state car so rust is a not an issue.

These were the only station wagon conversions approved by Cadillac.  They were the only ones that could be ordered ast a Cadillac dealer.  Only.  They were high option Fleetwoods from brand spanking new.  The cost was $30,000 in 1976! Kuwait oil money wanted them and set up a shop in Los Angeles (Trad. Coach Works) for the purpose of export.  Some were sold to Sammy Davis Jr., Evel Knieval, and this one possibly to Bill Harrah.  The estate I purchased the car from lost the paper work but remembered the name not knowing who he was (I thought that funny).  I have service papers dating far back from Reno, San Diego, and Palm Beach.

The interior is 100% original.  The tuxedo grain vinyl top is original.  Traditional Coachworks did a few custom features to the car when new (these cars were all custom ordered.)  The high powered driving lights, chrome valve covers, support braces, and air cleaner in the engine bay were done.  In the inside the painted metal surrounds around the windows were chrome plated instead of factory spray paint to match the interior color.  The three extra buttons low in the driver's side of the dash operate the fifth horn (plus the four factory trumpet horns!), the driving lights, and one is auxiliary.  Custom floor mats protect the carpet with the factory ones on top.  Carpet is as new.

The car starts, idles, and runs without issue.  The transmission shifts smoothly and the car lacks rattles vibrations, or undo wind noise.  This was obviously a quality construction.  Radio, heater, and air conditioning work.   Auto dimming works, twilight sentinel works, power door locks, all power seat functions, and all lights inside and out.

I have been on E Bay for over one decade and have 100% positive feedback.  I encourage an inspection, visual, and drive of this rare Cadillac.  I have other pictures at my website at jimhaileyclassiccars dot com if you care to view.  You may call me at 214 415 7373 if you prefer.  This Castilan can be seen in Santa Fe New Mexico with an appointment.  Thanks!

        1975 Brochure pictures of Cadillac's offered by Traditional Coach Works.  To the best of my knowledge they were only produced in 1975 and 1976.  12 were made in 1976 and I believe 15 or so were made in 1975.  If anyone has more information please let me know.

South Dakota dealer filled to brim with classic cars

Wed, 12 Mar 2014

Other than the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and Mount Rushmore, South Dakota isn't generally a hot topic, but that just means that cool stuff can hide in the open waiting to be discovered. Case in point: the classic car dealer Frankman Motor Company that operates three locations in Sioux Falls, SD.
Unearthed by the folks at Bring a Trailer, Frankman is a treasure trove of vintage, American iron. Their collection is full of the type of vehicles your irresponsible but cool uncle would show up with when you were a kid. Even better, these cars are priced at a level a working man can afford.
If you are lusting about a cruiser then Frankman has a 1956 Cadillac Deville Hard Top Sedan (pictured right) with 82,896 miles for $12,975. It's painted a color called Cascade Grey, but looks more like a pastel purple in pictures. While it needs some repairs to the accessories, the Caddy runs and drives, which is all you really need.

Season 9 of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee teases us with BMWs and Volvos

Thu, Dec 22 2016

Jerry Seinfeld's successful online show Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee is heading into its ninth season, returning January 5th. It should be no surprise that the list of actors and comedians is impressive, with Kristen Wiig, Christoph Waltz, and more making appearances. Seinfeld has lined up an equally impressive list of cars for the new season. Porsche, BMW, and Volvo all have beautiful machines lined up to shuttle Seinfeld and his guest to different coffee shops. As always, it's a mix of light humor packed into a relatively short and, most importantly, free video. Catch up on the previous eight seasons now on Crackle.

Super Bowl LVII car commercial roundup: Watch them all here

Mon, Feb 13 2023

Fewer automakers than usual spent money advertising during Super Bowl LVII. In total, there were only five traditional ad spots from three big OEMs. A number of car-adjacent ads aired during the Big Game, too, and we’ll bring you those ads in this roundup alongside the more obvious ones. WeÂ’ve compiled all of the automotive-related commercials for you here in this post so you donÂ’t have to go searching for them elsewhere. Read on below to see what aired as the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Philadelphia Eagles. Ram's Super Bowl spot offers a cure for 'Premature Electrification' This commercial revealed the new electric Ram Rev pickup, and itÂ’s themed like a prescription ad for an antidote to "Premature Electrification.” A concerned narrator in the Ram spot asks if you're afraid that going electric too soon will mean "you might not be able to last as long as you like," and there's a guy on a pier who's going to need some new equipment if he wants to catch fish. We're also told there are "options being designed to extend range in satisfying ways," so if this truck isn't right for you, you have choices. All the commercial's missing is a silly medical marketing name and six seconds of speed-reading gibberish about side effects like intestinal bleeding and death. Which are two more good things. Jeep 4xe Super Bowl commercial highlights modern version of 'Electric Boogie' JeepÂ’s “Electric Boogie” commercial follows the Wrangler 4xe and Grand Cherokee 4xe in a variety of simulated off-road situations. Though fun, the soundtrack is the real star of the show. The songÂ’s original artist, Marcia Griffiths, was joined by Grammy winner Shaggy, Jamila Falak, Amber Lee, and Moyann on the track. The modernized re-recording celebrates 40 years since GriffithsÂ’ original track, and Jeep says the track is available for streaming now. Kia returns to the Super Bowl with the tale of 'Binky Dad' This year, Kia follows the adventure of "Binky Dad" in his quest to fetch his daughter's lost pacifier, which naturally takes him over just about every bit of terrain you might encounter upon leaving the civilized confines of Southern California for the not-so-civilized mountains of ... probably also California. It features the refreshed 2023 Kia Telluride, which probably doesnÂ’t need much advertising to see these days, but Kia went for it with the strong three-row SUV anyway.
