Herriman, Utah, United States

1961 Cadillac Coupe de Ville. 2 door Hardtop.  I've had the car a year. I love it.  The car is giant and I've got four cars in a one car driveway.  I need to make room.  So sadly this one has to go.

I bought the car from an older fellow who'd had it covered for years.  It was not working when I got it.  The car has the original Cadillac 390 ci engine. I've replaced some hoses , belts and wiring. I replaced the lower control arm bushings. I rebuilt the master cylinder. I've also rebuilt the generator.   Currently it has an alternator installed, but it is a 10 minute switch to get the generator in again, and it is of course included with the car. I have all the hubcaps. I have the fender skirts.  Comes with an extra front grille also comes with original radio, currently not installed.  Runs and drives but will need a tuneup and brake adjustment at least. 

The car is not perfect yet.  The clearcoat is peeling all over the car. The car is 99.9 % rust free, however on the bottom rear lip of the trunk lid there is some rust to be repaired a picture is included. The brakes work but need to be adjusted, they pull a little to the right.  The interior was redone before it was covered an out away by the previous owner (12+ years ago).  The dash was recovered and looks great. The vinyl on the seats is starting to crack a little (as can be seen in the close up pictures around top of the seats).  I've been tinkering with task me wiring in the dash and a few of the gauges (fuel sender, water temp, dash light) got disconnected.  

Per car code the car was originally white exterior and black interior.  It was my intention to restore it to full glory as this is an awesome Car.  The Body is super straight and. The car is original as in Original engine chassis and body numbers matching.  It has never been chopped up or rodded out.  All original suspension and brakes. 

Car is currently in Riverton, Utah and is available for inspection by you or your mechanic. 

Buyer will be responsible for all shipping costs, transfer fees, and or all applicable sales taxes.

GM recalling another 2.7 million vehicles in five separate campaigns

Thu, 15 May 2014

The recalls keep rolling in from General Motors, evidently keen to avoid repeating the mistakes of the ignition-switch debacle and clean house. This time they're all coming at once, with five separate recalls announced together covering approximately 2.7 million vehicles.
The largest of the five actions involves over 2.4 million units of the previous-generation Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura in order to fix brake light wiring harness, which have been found to be susceptible to corrosion. The recall is separate from the 56k Aura sedans which GM recently recalled over faulty shift cables, not to mention the previous massive recall of 1.3 million vehicles - some of them the same models - but appears to have resulted from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation that started with the G6 almost a year ago.
The second-largest campaign involves the 2014 Chevy Malibu, specifically those fitted with GM's 2.5-liter engine and stop/start system, approximately 140,000 examples of which has been found to have problematic brakes. The issue does not appear to be connected to the recall of 8k Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans (also involving brake woes) which we reported upon last week. Four crashes have been reported in such models, but GM admits it's not yet clear if the problem was a contributing factor in the accidents.

Cadillac to fight Audi A3, Mercedes CLA with small rear-drive sedan?

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

Compact luxury sedans are fast becoming the trend among upscale automakers. Mercedes has the new CLA (and its many platform-mates), BMW has the 1 Series and 2 Series, Audi has the A3 and, though Lexus apparently isn't interested in anything smaller than its CT 200h, Infiniti is getting in on the action with a compact model of its own. It would only follow logically, then, that Cadillac should launch a competitor, and according to the latest reports, that's just what it has in store.
Speaking with Car and Driver, Cadillac marketing chief Uwe Ellinghaus confirmed that such a project is in the works. But unlike its rivals, Cadillac aims to go with a rear-wheel-drive layout. This despite research that apparently indicates that a surprising 80 percent of owners think that their BMW 1 Series is front-drive. It's the driving dynamics and styling proportions that motivate Ellinghaus and his colleagues to stick with rear-drive, however.
The new model would in all likelihood be based on the same GM Alpha architecture that underpins the ATS and CTS - a platform that has helped Cadillac keep the weight down on both models and which is expected to underpin the next-generation Chevy Camaro, as well. The sub-ATS could be positioned as a four-door 2+2, however, as the ATS grows a little larger in its next iteration in order to make room for its new baby brother.
