Up for auction is my 1976 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible. I will first list all the small issues with this car:

The cruise control does not work

The clock does not work

The rear passenger window works but needs a little help to stay in line

there is a crack on the upper and lower dash

the drivers seat back has a small rip

the rotating cadillac symbol that covers the trunk lock is missing

it could use some new weather stripping on the A pillar

The cadillac script is missing on the front hood so are the small chrome pieces on the bottom of the front extentions

There appears to be a hole in the floor above the catalytic converter that was patched from the inside. (see pics)

And it needs a new muffler.

Not bad for a car that is 37 years old. I have not tried to fix any of these issues so i'm not sure how easy or hard it would be to fix. The previous owner cut a trim piece on the dash to install a cd player, I have tracked down and purchased a new trim piece along with an 8 track radio with CB that was an option in 76 I will include these with the car. The car shows under 68000 miles which I've been told are original. I purchased this car from the son of the first owner. It runs and drives great, there are no mechanical issues that I am aware of. We have taken this car on numerous road trips and it never gave us any problems. The car was painted about 5 years ago, during that time some rust was cut out of the rear quarters and new metal welded in. The original color was green but was repainted a slightly lighter shade. The wheels were also painted to match the car. The paint has no chips or major scratches. During the painting process some over spray hit the vynal top but most of it is covered by the trim. There is a small scratch on the front extention near the hood (see pics). The trunk and trunk lid are solid, there appears to be a rubberized lining on the floor of the trunk perhaps to prevent rust or noise. This same material is on the undercarriage and except for the hole that was patched on the floor there appears to be only surface rust on some parts of the undercarriage typical of a car this age. I have tried to be honest and list any and all issues I am aware of on this car, however this is no replacement for you own inspection which can be arranged if you are in the area. Car runs and drives great but is sold as is. If you are the winning bidder a $500 no refundable deposit via pay pal is due within 24 hours of auctions end. With balance paid in cash at pick up. I reserve the right to end auction early as car is for sale locally. The reserve is lower then what I have invested in this car, but it needs to see because I need the garage space. If you have any questions please ask. Thank you and good luck.

Five awesome Lego car creations

Thu, 23 Oct 2014

Lego cars are among our favorite toys. They're fun for play, and if built properly, great to display. With that in mind, we've crafted a list of some of the best creations we've seen. Some are on sale now, while others are merely the work of fanciful enthusiasts. There are even a couple that you definitely cannot buy (we'll explain).
Our choices are diverse, including everything from a diminutive 1969 Chevy Corvette to a fullsize Ferrari Formula One racecar. These are just five projects that caught our eye - there are many more out there - so if you don't see your favorite Lego car on the list (or if you have your own creation), please tell us about it, in Comments.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Mon, 20 Jun 2011

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.

Cadillac LTS flagship to bow at NY Auto Show

Wed, 06 Aug 2014

There is widespread agreement across the industry that Cadillac needs a proper, rear-drive flagship sedan that completes legitimately with the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Audi A8 and BMW 7 Series.
Fortunately, the same view is held within the company, and just such a car - possibly dubbed LTS - is under development. According to a high-level source at Cadillac, the new four-door, which is said to incorporate design cues from the marque's celebrated Elmiraj coupe concept, will debut at the New York Auto Show next April.
If the car needs a cheerleader, surely incoming president Johan de Nysschen is just such a person. De Nysschen doesn't arrive at Cadillac until late in the month, but certainly he will want a proper flagship to do battle with his old foes at Mercedes-Benz and BMW and old friends at Audi and Infiniti.
