This is my 1973 Cadillac Sedan DeVille with only 65,291 original miles. This car was purchased new at Clairmont Cadillac Corporation in Montclair, NJ on August 31, 1973 by Mr. Jack C. Tancrel, aged 55. Soon after, Mr. Tancrel retired to Florida and took the car with him. He kept the car garaged and perfectly maintained for the rest of his life. The original purchase price in 1973 was $6495.00 and I have all of the original dealer sales paperwork, warranty papers and even letters written back and forth to Cadillac for warranty work. I also have a stack of service records, paperwork and receipts dating back to new plus the original books and manuals. The list of paperwork and documentation is extensive; it documents the car from brand new. In 2007 the car was sold by his surviving spouse to their next-door neighbors in Florida. These folks are retired and keep a collection of classic American cars. They spend their winters in Florida and their summers here in Northeast Ohio. The car has not been exposed road salt or snow; it has either spent its winters in Florida or in a dry garage up north. This Cadillac has been outstandingly well-preserved. For a 40-year old car, it looks, runs and drives superbly well. This car has ALWAYS been perfectly maintained and well cared-for. Rarely will you find a 40-year old car like this with a fully documented history since new. This car has the original sales paperwork from new, and a huge stack of service records that are as recent as last year. The service records and maintenance history are beyond compare. The car was repainted once in 1985 and a superb job was done. This paint job looks excellent- the finish carries an excellent gloss and the car looks beautiful. There is no exterior body panel rust- this car is about 98% rust-free. It is completely solid in every way, including underneath. This is a superbly well-preserved car in gorgeous clean condition. The interior of the car is original, and it is in excellent condition. The seat upholstery, carpets and dash are clean and in very good condition. The interior has held up exceptionally well over 40 years. This car runs and drives outstandingly well. The engine starts and runs smoothly and it makes excellent power. The engine does not smoke or hesitate, nor does it show any undue fluid leaks. This is a quiet, comfortable and smooth vehicle. The brakes are powerful and stop well. The suspension is comfortable and tight, with no clunks. The steering is smooth and precise. This car drives and rides exceptionally well. This car has no known mechanical or electrical problems and it is ready to drive anywhere. I would not hesitate to drive this car across the country. They don't make cars like this anymore- big, heavy, body-on-frame, high-quality RWD American cars are part of our history. This car has the following equipment and options:
This car is a 1973 and as such it is not brand new. Please expect normal issues of wear and tear consistent with the age of the car. Here is a list of all known defects: The plastic front bumper fillers below the headlights are missing. There is some wear and rips in the carpet in the driver's footwell. There are a few small dings, plus other small nicks and defects in the paint and body. There are a few tiny bubbles in the paint, maybe a few below the window trim and inside the door jambs, etc. There is a nick at the front edge of the right rear door. The door trim on the right front door is slightly bent at the edge. The rubber bumper guards are somewhat shrunken, uneven and cracked. You can fly in to Cleveland (CLE) and drive this car home. Alternatively you can have this car shipped- please call Angels Moving Autos at 530-245-0481 for a shipping quote. Questions, please email or call/text John at 440-339-4341. |

Cadillac expects major growth in China
Thu, 25 Sep 2014The US sales issues facing Cadillac are not being paralleled in the People's Republic of China, as a new report from Automotive News indicates the US luxury maker should see its sales increase by as much as 40 percent.
The report cites Cadillac's own forecasts, which put its 2014 sales in the PRC at 70,000 units after cresting 45,000 vehicles at the end of August. Provided the sales pace holds true through 2015, the brand would hit its new 100,000-unit sales goal, AN reports.
"We're very optimistic about the luxury market, we believe that the luxury market by 2016 here will become the largest luxury market in the world, surpassing even the size of luxury in Europe," GM China President Matthew Tsien told AN. "With [Cadillac president] Johan [de Nysschen], we have somebody that really is an executive that understands luxury, but he also is very, very keen on understanding what do we need here in China for Cadillac to be successful."
Cadillac Elmiraj sedan RWD flagship finally caught testing
Wed, 22 Jan 2014While we still have no insight as to it being named Elmiraj, STS or some other permutation of the -TS nomenclature ("LTS" has apparently been registered by GM, as well), new spy shots give us proof positive that Cadillac is indeed hard at work on a rear-wheel-drive flagship model. Spied for the very first time in some north country testing, these shots provide a first look at the upcoming range-topper from Cadillac.
Impressively long and large bodywork ride atop new General Motors' corporate Omega rear-drive architecture here. Heavy cladding over camouflage may discourage finding any details, but the overall, sharp-edged and blocky design is clearly reminiscent of what we've seen on the new CTS and the recently debuted ATS coupe. A strong, wheels-at-each-corner stance helps emphasize the length of this stretched Caddy, and everything about the proportions seem spot-on for a new fullsize flagship for the brand.
It's quite possible that Cadillac will ultimately festoon this large sedan with detailing reminiscent of the original Elmiraj coupe, though thus far we've only seen prototypes wearing four-doors.

Tue, 10 Dec 2013The 2014 North American International Auto Show is right around the corner, which means it's high time we found out which cars and trucks would be finalists for the prestigious North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards.
The finalists - three in cars and three in three trucks/utilities - are dominated by American brands, with two-thirds of the finalists hailing from either General Motors or Chrysler (don't worry Ford, there's always next year), while outliers from Mazda and Acura can be found in each contest. Here now is the list of finalists for the big prizes:
