Beautyfull 1977 Cadillac Coupe DeVille for sale, it rides like a dream and runs good. Engine is a massive 425 c.i. with a sound similar to a lions roar, the trunk is massive and I think Jimmy Hoffa is lost somewhere in there and it has seating for you and five of your amigos. I don't like to sell it, but I have limited time (work alot) and money to restore it and I have three other cars to work on. It is a very nice car that just needs some TLC to become a great car. Mileage exempt, should be around 180 000 miles. It is a five digit meter showing 80 000, but I'm sure it's rolled over still incredible solid car for it's age, no rattle or squeeks, SUPER comfortable floaty ride! Could be driven every day, no problem, but this cool car deserves to be restored :)
I have fixed a lot of stuff like the original radio, and put on a lot of new (original part) parts, new interstate battery, new original AC Delco alternator (1 year 12000 mile warranty), new rear tires, new brake lines, new upper radiator hose, new wheaterstripping around driver door and trunk (15 year warranty), new window filt on driver side, new driver side floorpan (90 rust free warranty), new AC Delco spark plugs, new air duct with air filter, new heater hose, installed new door lock actuator and window motor (driver side), AC Blows cold and was just filled full with freon, retrofitted modern unit, got lots of new parts for it like door seals and door/window filt. Most of the parts come with warranty and I have all the recipts and part order slips for you.
I have been very carefull at servicing and maintaining the car, I go to valvoline and get my oil changes with the good oil (no synthetic stuff either). The car has had two owners before me I believe, was last restored in 1994 and is near complete original, 90 percent I would say. The major stuff to do on it is rustwork, rework the vinyl top and a new exhaust end, still this is a nice car and it wouldn't take too much work to make it a show car as all the plastic fillers are on the car (which are rare on 70-80s cadillacs) exept the one behind the liscence plate (around 150-200 on junkyard or rubbertherightway). Does about 21 mpg while cruising at around 55-60 mph not too bad, but floor it and you'll see about half of that.
If I feel the price is right (above 2000ish) I'll throw in a new car cover, haynes manual, new owners manual, an awesome Cadillac pen and perhaps some other goodies :)

Cadillac logo losing its wreath?
Tue, 23 Jul 2013The easily recognizable Cadillac logo dates back to the company's founding in the early 1900s, but over the last 110 years, there has been an on-again, off-again love affair with the wreath surrounding the crest. Cadillac's current badge design has used the wreath since the 1980s, but Automotive News is reporting that GM's luxury division is planning to ditch the laurel wreath for a cleaner-looking logo.
The new logo could make its debut as early as next month on a new concept car that will be revealed at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, although the report also says that it might be until 2015 before it makes its way to a production car. Even then, it doesn't like anything has been finalized yet, as the article also says that plans could still change.
As Cadillac looks to improve its global presence as a luxury automaker, the report says that a simpler logo could make it easier for designers to incorporate the badge onto the car - either in the grille or above the grille (possibly in a fashion similar to Mercedes-Benz). Head on over to the AN article, which shows the Cadillac logo dating back to its earliest design.
