See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"I had hoped to restore this car but the person who was compensated to do it skipped town. The car is pretty bare bones as he stripped all chrome, headlights, etc off before stopping work. I will be selling those parts in separate auctions. Body work is 85% done. Trunk is not bolted to hinges. Top is pretty thrashed. Top mechanics seem to start working but will definitely need work and adjustment. I Seats are thrashed as is the carpet, dash, etc. Car starts up and idles nicely, but goes to zero pressure quickly according to a mechanic that recently checked it out. I am not mechanically inclined, so I am turning this over to someone that can work on it and get it back to where it needs to be. Tires are holding air, but I wouldn't drive the car on them due to their age. Again, car runs, but will need to be towed on flatbed from its current location. Shows 44788 miles, not sure if it is 44788 or 144788. What you see in the pictures is what you get. No other parts are included."

I am selling a car that I have owned since 2007.  I hired someone to do the restoration project, but they bailed without completing the work.  The car has been driven a total of about 10 miles since purchase.  Prior to me buying it, it sat for 10 years.  It is listed on non-op status right now, but was previously registered through 2010 or 2011.  This car is pretty bare bones as the guy stripped most of the parts off the car to do the body work and painting.  I will sell those parts in separate auctions.  The car is in San Diego and you will need to arrange pickup within 7 days of the close of auction.  I will not arrange shipping.  I have a copy of the title in hand.


Car was stripped down to bare metal and primered before going on non-op status.  Weatherstripping was removed.  Door panels are not on the car anymore.  All windows are still there and all window regulators were there and working as of 2 years ago.  I cannot guarantee that they work now, but they should.

To be clear...What you see in the pictures is what you get.  No other parts are included.  Car is sold as is, where is.  I have been as clear as I can about the condition as I know it.

Thanks and good luck!  I hope someone can rescue this baby and return it to its former glory!  Only 16K of these '76 convertibles were made so I don't want to see it get scrapped.

Cadillac may not build Elmiraj coupe

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

Despite the fact that most everyone who has laid eyes on the Cadillac Elmiraj concept coupe loves it, General Motors insiders are still trying to prove the business case to build the car. And it's certainly not a guarantee.
"I want to see this car go into production badly. Very badly," Ed Welburn, GM's Global Head of Design, told Autoblog. But the Cadillac design studio is busier than it's ever been before, and the company is working on prioritizing which cars deserve to get the billion-dollar price tag needed to research and develop a new model.
No matter what happens, Welburn says the car has made its mark on Cadillac

GM recalling Cadillac ATS, XTS, Chevy Impala over faulty brake lamps

Thu, 06 Jun 2013

General Motors has issued a recall covering 1,627 sedans over faulty brake lamps. Both the 2013 Cadillac ATS and XTS are affected by this problem, as is the 2014 Chevrolet Impala.
According to an official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, "the brake lamps may intermittently flash without the brakes being applied and the cruise control may disengage" on these vehicles. The report does not state that the brakes themselves are faulty, but rather that "if the brake lamps flash when the vehicle is not slowing, a following driver may not adjust vehicle speed when the vehicle is in fact braking."
This marks the first recall for the 2013 Cadillac ATS, as well as the recently introduced 2014 Chevy Impala. In late 2012, over 12,000 Cadillac XTS models were recalled due to a head restraint issue.

Cadillac ATS-V Coupe caught undisguised ahead of LA reveal

Tue, 28 Oct 2014

Vsport versions of the CTS and XTS sedans are all well and good, but what Cadillac enthusiasts have really been looking forward to is the arrival of the next full-on V model. And here we have it.
Spied in the nude during an apparent photo shoot ahead of its anticipated debut at the fast-approaching Los Angeles Auto Show, the upcoming new Cadillac ATS-V Coupe is set to pick up where the old CTS-V left off, only in a more compact form. Unlike previous spy shots of heavily disguised prototypes, this final version is showing a chrome-framed mesh grille, along with a deep lower air dam with what looks to be a carbon-fiber front splitter. That bulging hood with heat extractor vents is tipped to be packing a twin-turbo V6 engine, breathing out of quad exhaust tips.
The aggressive aero kit also encompasses side skirts, a reshaped rear bumper and a lip spoiler on the truck, while the upgraded rolling stock wears serious low-profile rubber and the brakes appear to be carbon-ceramic units. Peer through the window and you can even see the sport bucket seats with slots for racing harnesses. All of which suggests a serious American challenger to the BMW M4 and its ilk, and we're looking forward to seeing the vehicle in the metal in LA next month.
