Calls only! Text will not be returned! This no reserve action is for a 1979 Cadillac Seville that i have owned since 1985.It is fashioned after the micfearson Chevrolet one built in the early 1980s. It was a deciel car when i bought it from the original owner who sold real estate and hardly any one had sat in the back seat. Always garaged by him. The engine quit at 137000.00 so i put a 1973 454 and turbo 400 out of a station wagon. I dove it for years as my real estate car. Then i pulled the engine last year to do it up. Bored .030 over new forged pop up pistons,ported and polished heads 049 119 cc chamber for a today's gas friendly 9.25 to 1.Polished rods,balanced, clay smith 280/560 hyd cam, high volume oil pump, Cleavland 77 bearings,roller rockers shorty headers for nova,2/12 inch exhaust out the back with cross over pipe. Has 400 turbo trans that was also rebuilt at the time. It has near new disk brakes on all 4 corners. The front end has also been rebuilt a few years ago. It rumps nicely and you can tell it has a stall 2300-2600 in the turbo 400. The bad! It needs some paint work because of bubles by the vinal top edge,front fender, hood etc. When we painted it it got striped of all door gaurd edging and emblems before we base coat clear coated and cut and buffed it. It is real strait. The moon roof needs a new switch and doesn't move properly and may just need lube or taken apart and the tracks cleaned. The air conditioning doesn't work and is missing some parts. The cruse also doesn't work but is there. The rear bumper rubbers need replaced. They make new ones for about $200.00. The trunk lock works some times and some times not. I have closed in the key hole but it can be access and manually over ridden. The heater control box needs some adjustment. It runs and drives very nice with lots of horse power about 425 in my estimate. It rides on B F Goodrich TA tires and Chevrolet truck 7x15 and 8x15 rally wheels with 5 on 5 bolt pattern. It runs on pump fuel and if you took off the afb and ran a Holley i am sure it would like it. I left the card that is on it for gas mileage. DARE TO BE DIFFERENT! This is a pick up only item and as i said runs and drives nice to have your shipper load. For you who text. My final price could be the opening price maybe more. But you have to bid to buy it that is why they call this a action. Your text will not be returned! As i said CALLS ONLY! Garry 360-921-0446

GM intends to offer semi-autonomous vehicles by 2020
Fri, 30 Aug 2013Prepare for a few years of technological saber-rattling, as the world's automakers begin pushing to bring self-driving cars to market. Earlier this week, Nissan announced that it aims to offer autonomous vehicles by 2020, while Google, BMW and several other marks are working on similar efforts.
General Motors is doing things differently, though. Rather than push for a fully autonomous car, it's continuing to refine its semi-autonomous Super Cruise, a product that we tested in April 2012 and that will eventually see use on some Cadillacs before trickling down to the rest of the General Motors family. Super Cruise, which is undergoing testing in the Cadillac SRX, doesn't take complete control out of the driver's hands. Rather, under a very specific set of circumstances on the freeway, it will marry the capabilities of things like lane departure warning and adaptive cruise control to allow the driver to take their hands off the wheel. All of which sounds a lot like the system Mercedes-Benz is launching on the 2014 S-Class.
The system is still in development, according to John Capp, GM's director of electrical controls and active safety technology. Now that that the biggest hurdle, steering control, has been cleared, GM's engineers can focus on things like teaching the system to adapt to differing road conditions and visibility levels. As we reported in 2012, Super Cruise is still befuddled in low-visibility situations or when road markings aren't particularly clear.
Cadillac V-Series Academy comes to Las Vegas [w/video]
Thu, 31 Jan 2013General Motors has added another high-speed education course to the curriculum at the Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch outside of Las Vegas, Nevada. The desert track already hosts the Ron Fellows Performance Driving School with Chevrolet Corvettes, including the ZR1, and they've just added the Cadillac V-Series Academy.
Open now, the one- and two-day performance driving school teaches "the finer points of high performance driving" using the 556-horspower instructional aids known as the CTS-V sedan, coupe and wagon. This is different than than using the CTS-V at the Monticello Motor Club on the east coast - that's part of a sponsorship deal that Cadillac has with the track. The driving course at the Motorsports Ranch is its own program that was developed by Fellows, and we have no reason to think the Cadillac edition won't be just as thorough and enjoyable as the one with Corvettes.
Unlike the 'Vette edition, however, it doesn't appear that you get an invitation to the program if you buy a CTS-V model. Classes are capped at 12 participants and run $1,295 for a single day, $2,295 for two days. There are a video and a press release below with more info.
2015 Cadillac Escalade
Fri, 29 Aug 2014I have never liked traveling to Monterey, CA. The picturesque coastal city is about 300 miles from my home in Los Angeles, which means cramped and uncomfortable regional aircraft are part of the equation when the turnaround is only one night. Over the years, I have cursed the LA Basin's bumper-to-bumper traffic en route to the airport, argued with TSA personnel over carry-on baggage and waited countless hours for the fog to lift just for the anguish of being packed into a small regional jet for the flight. Of course, the process repeats on the trip home with equal misery.
Yet this time I am not suffering.
Cadillac has dropped its all-new 2015 Escalade in my driveway. Instead of battling city congestion, attempting to reason with misinformed government agents, snacking on a too-small bag of pretzels and physically rubbing shoulders with a dubious stranger for 90-plus minutes within the confines of a bumpy aircraft, I have chosen to forgo air travel and drive myself door-to-door in a fullsize luxury sport utility vehicle.
