Just Serviced and Inspected


Rare Opportunity............................LOW RESERVE





Greetings to All!! imotors is quite pleased to offer possibly the nicest 1966 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Available anywhere! 1966 was the one of THE most opulent Cadillacs ever built. Notice the plush leather seating, wood on the doors, and the only year to have the twin tray tables fitted to the rear seating area... Simply Magnificent!!!
We purchased this one right out of the second, long term owner's garage a few months ago in New Jersey. He cherished it for 28 wonderful years, driving it a scant 4,000 miles since he acquired it from the original elderly owners. He tells me that he owned a tire and repair shop, and that two elderly sisters purchased this Gorgeous Caddy new in 1966. They affectionately named her "Cleo"!

 As he did all of the service during their ownership, they became great friends over the next 19 years, and in 1985, when one of them passed, the surviving sister insisted that he continue their love affair with Cleo, and become the next loving owner, which he was for 28 years, until he and his wife decided to head for warmer climates. Sadly, their was no room for Cleo. She is now available for her next long term love affair....could it be you??????

When Cleo arrived in Export, Pa. at International Motorcars, she was in fine, original condition. She was always garaged and babied, but seldom used(4,000 miles in 28 years). Looking her over, she had had some routine maintenance done over the last 28 years, such as recent exhaust and shocks, but needed some tender love and care to bring her back into the mainstream of life!!!

The first things on the list were a noisy water pump, and a seized up, original A/C Compressor. As I disassembled the front of the engine, I noticed a fair amount of corrosion on the seams of the radiator.......time to replace or recore? I also decided while I was there to do belts and hoses. Might as well do plugs and wires too!! As we all know, one thing leads to another!!! A close friend suggested that I mask her up a bit, and give the engine a fresh coat of Cadillac Blue paint. Good idea I thought!! As there were only 4 bolts that held the Carb on, I decided to remove it. As there were only 8 bolts that held the intake manifold on, I removed it also. Only 3 bolts and the valley pan was off, and I also removed the valve covers. Much easier to have all the pieces sandblasted before painting, and install fresh gaskets too! The engine was amazingly clean inside, and it was surely apparent that Cleo had been very well maintained over her 47 years!!

Upon reassembly, I did most of the vacuum hoses, and heater hoses too. All AC Delco parts were used when available, including belts, hoses, plugs and wires. A fresh Stant thermostat and radiator cap were fitted, along with a brand new water pump, and radiator. New fuel filter, air filter, and of course a fresh oil and filter change with Brad Penn 30W that has Zinc in it! The A/C Comprseeor was replaced with a rebuilt, along with a new receiver/drier, and converted to R134. I did not have the Rochester Quadrajet rebuilt(and I should have!).
She does have a bit of a stumbly idle, which should go away with a rebuild. Cleo now starts right up, and runs like a dream. I also had the air cleaner powder coated, and did some light touch up to the rad support, and inner fenders with chassis black. I think it looks great, but not overdone!

This is an ORIGINAL, unrestored survivor Fleetwood with 34,900 actual miles that spent the last 28 years in a garage. Most of the paint is the original lacquer from 47 years ago. I believe that only the trunk lid was painted some time way back, but am not 100% sure. There are some nicks and blemishes, along with a small ding down low on the left rear quarter panel that is pictured below. I did not do ANY touch up, just a good buff and polish. The panels fit very well, and the gaps are all nice and straight. The doors still close with that "Thud" that we all know and love. I think she looks Fantastic! All of the original chrome is just Beautiful, with basically ZERO pits!!! Amazing!! There are a few on the center grille bar, a few on top of the front parking lights, a few on the small uprights on both cornering lights, and some on the vent window frames that you only notice when they are OPEN. These are VERY MINOR....you really have to look closely to even know that they are there!! There is some bubbling under the vinyl roof, on both sides at the rear. I decided to let the next owner decide what to do here. The Bridgestone radial tires are 28 years old, I am told. They look good, and ride good. Replacement is suggested before long term, high speed driving is attempted.
 
The original Black Leather interior is just Gorgeous. It is totally original, with no dying done anywhere! You will notice in the many detailed photos below that the drivers door wood has some minor wear. I left this alone also, for originality, and for fear of not being able to match the finish. Options abound, with very few missing(heated front seats, power trunk, and front headrests, I think). Everything works just as it should, including the AM FM Stereo, and the Automatic climate control. The cruise control is inop, along with the power right rear vent window. The other three vent windows do work, but need a shove to close. All four main windows work fine, along with the power door locks and seat. We have the original owners manual, but no warranty book or Protect-o-Plate. One set of original GM keys with number punches not punched!

Unrestored survivor cars such as this are quite desired. Anyone can take a rusty old car, and do a no expense spared restoration, but as the saying goes......They are original only once!!!!!



Take a look at the 100 plus photographs below and see the actual pristine condition of this One of A Kind Fleetwood Brougham.

By bidding you agree to all terms set forth below.

Many Thanks for Your Interest!
Good Luck with Your Bidding!!

Cadillac ELR next EV to get Plugless Power wireless charging tech

Mon, Jul 28 2014

Evatran 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.

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."

GM to build $1.3 billion Cadillac plant in China

Wed, 08 May 2013

General Motors has gotten approval to build a $1.3 billion manufacturing facility for its Cadillac brand in China. China's National Development and Reform Commission signed off on plans for GM to build the plant in the country's Shanghai's Jinqiao zone; construction is expected to begin in June of this year. According to a Bloomberg report, the plant will have an annual production capacity of 150,000 units.
No surprise here, but Cadillac would like to sell a lot more cars in the plush Chinese luxury market. The brand moved only 30,010 cars in China last year, compared with 400k for Audi, and about 330k for BMW. With Cadillac already telling us that it would be moving production of its XTS sedan to China - a production decision that saves having to pay 25-percent import tariffs - approval of the factory is a critical win for the company.
In fact, according to earlier comments by GM China president Bob Socia, it's at least conceivable that Chinese-built Cadillacs could be shipped back to the US for sale. The brave new world of globalization, getting stranger by the minute.
