1961 Cadillac Deville Base Sedan 4-door 6.4l on 2040-cars
Lake Orion, Michigan, United States
|
Up for sale is my beautiful 1961 Cadillac sedan DeVille. I
hate to get rid of it but unfortunately I have other obligations and my loss is
your gain. To start, this is an all original 1961 Deville with just over 56,000
original miles on it. Comes standard with the 390cid V8 package that includes
A/C, AM radio, leather/cloth interior matching the body paint (gold/white),
wide white wall tires, and power windows. The vehicle is equipped with A/C, however at the time of this listing, it is inoperative. Everything is there, but I just not have had a chance to try and charge it. The interior is beautiful as the seats were all redone in original fashion at the end of last summer and look like brand new. All the interior chrome is polished and shiny and the original door cards, headliner, and other interior pieces are in great condition. It also has like new 4-ply wide white wall tires, a brand new
battery, fully rebuilt water pump, new air filter, and all the fluids were flushed just about a week or so ago
(oil change, coolant flush, transmission flush). I also just recently had the
transmission gone through and adjusted as well as the carburetor cleaned and
throttle return spring replaced. All the chrome is in great shape with no
pitting or blemishes. The grill, like all other Cadillac's of this age, does have slight oxidation in areas, but nothing that stands out. The paint is in great condition except for a few small imperfections here and there (left front fender-shown in pictures). No
rust! This car has only had two owners before me dating all the way back to
1961 and was always garage kept and winterized every year! I also had a whole new stainless steel exhaust system put on it end of last year as well (sounds great!). It runs and drives
beautifully with no issues and is a great cruiser with plenty of power. The only other thing it will need is to have the seat belts installed. Last summer I had the old ones taken out and new ones bought (included with the car) and just realized they were not installed yet. I also have a folder of paperwork including maintenance records, receipts, old blue prints, etc. as
well as extra parts such as air filters, bulbs, seat belts, color-matching paint, and a water-proof car cover that
will all be included with the car. All in all this car is ready to be driven
daily with no issues and would be a great addition to anyone's collection. I just took her out the other day for a cruise with no issues whatsoever and if anyone is local and wants to come take a look or test drive it, feel free to give me a call or email. Also feel free to contact me if you have any questions whatsoever or if there's something I missed in the pictures that you would like to see. Happy bidding! |

These are the top luxury cars bought by people entering the segment for the first time
Fri, 25 Jul 2014Let's say you just got a big promotion at work or the kids are moving out of the house, and you finally have some extra money. You decide to blow it all at once and treat yourself by upgrading your ride. Naturally, you look to a luxury automaker. What do you choose?
Models like the Audi A3 and Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class may be tailor-made to introduce buyers to the premium segment, but a new study finds that they don't garner the highest rates of non-luxury customer conquests. It turns out that a Volvo leads among folks moving up to a premium brand, and it isn't even one that's made anymore, at that.
A recent study by Polk and IHS Automotive looked at what models had the highest rates of buyers upgrading from a non-luxury segment. The information comes from its new vehicle registration data through April 2014. All ten top models boasted conquest rates of over 50 percent, but the Volvo C70 led the field with 68.01 percent of its customers coming from non-premium brands.
Cadillac to vie for Secret Service armored car contract, new Beast?
Wed, 03 Jul 2013President Obama has used the same armored limo since his inauguration in 2008. Known by many as The Beast, the Presidential Limo was provided by Cadillac and earned its nickname in large part because of its massive size, which isn't surprising considering that its Caddy-shaped bodywork is said to sit atop a heavy-duty truck chassis.
It seems the Secret Service may be in the market for a Beast replacement, having issued a request for proposals for a new armored limo. According to Motor Trend, Obama's backup limo is a leftover from the Bush Administration, so it will be interesting to see if this new machine will serve as a replacement for The Beast or for its backup. The contract is to be awarded by September 29, 2013.
The boys from MT contacted Cadillac, Lincoln and Chrysler, and Chrysler is the only one that would confirm that it is not pursuing the contract. Cadillac may have the inside track, as it has provided Presidential limos since 1993, but Lincoln also has a long and storied history of chauffeuring the President.
Johan responds to critics again about Cadillac's NY move
Wed, 15 Oct 2014Cadillac's new President Johan de Nysschen has faced a fair amount of criticism since assuming his position at the head of the American luxury manufacturer. From the company's move to New York City to a controversial new naming scheme, the first few months of his tenure have not been smooth sailing. Now, the embattled exec is firing back against his critics, notably Automotive News Editor-in-Chief Keith Crain, in a new column running in AN.
De Nysschen countered Crain's claim that the move to the Big Apple, "can only mean that someone wants to live in New York."
"The relocation decision is entirely unrelated to the personal living preferences of any Cadillac executive. No corporation would tolerate such indulgence by its leadership," de Nysschen wrote. "It is about structurally entrenching a challenge to the status quo by reinforcing the psychological and physical separation in business philosophy between the mainstream brands and GM's luxury brand."
