The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. 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 probably 85% done. Trunk is not bolted to hinges. Top is pretty thrashed. Top starts working but will definitely need work and adjustment. I Seats are thrashed as is the carpet, dash, etc. Car starts up after a few tries and idles, but goes to zero pressure after a short time, according to a mechanic. Slight ticking at times. I am not mechanically inclined, so I am turning this over to someone that can work on it. Tires are holding air, but I wouldn't drive the car on them due to their age. 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 is what you get. No other parts are included. No warranty is given, express or implied."

1976 CADILLAC ELDORADO CONVERTIBLE

ONE OF ONLY 16,000 MADE!

Here is the video I made today showing how the car starts and some other condition specifics...

http://youtu.be/7uRF63AMo_Y

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 in a lot for 10 years. It is listed on non-op status right now, but was previously registered through 2010 or 2011, though rarely driven. 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, as well as other parts I bought to put into this car, in separate auctions. The car is in San Diego and you will need to arrange pickup and full final payment within 7 days of the close of auction. I will not arrange shipping. I have a copy of the title in hand. Payment must be cleared before car will be released.

This 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. Please see my attached video that shows that 3 of 4 windows at least operate at some level, all windows are present.

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

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.

Thanks and good luck!

Weekly Recap: Auto execs face life in prison for recall delays under proposed legislation

Sat, 09 Aug 2014

The stiff punishments are part of broader transportation legislation, but clearly McCaskill has automakers in her sights.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill threw down the gauntlet this week, proposing a bill that could send auto executives to prison for life if they were found to have delayed a recall. She also wants to eliminate the limit for fines for auto safety violations, which are currently capped at $35 million.

Cadillac teases production ELR ahead of Detroit Auto Show

Tue, 18 Dec 2012

General Motors has just confirmed that the 2014 Cadillac ELR will make its official debut next month at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show. We've already seen the ELR testing earlier this year using the same range-extended electric drive system as the Chevrolet Volt, and based on the shadowy image above, we're happy to see that the coupe's styling has stayed pretty true to 2009 Converj Concept.
The two-door ELR will be built alongside the Volt at GM's Detroit-Hamtramck plant starting later next year. Aside from this info, Cadillac has remained tight-lipped on the specific details of the car. But all that will all change on January 15.
Until then, all we have to offer you is the press release posted after the jump.

2014 Cadillac CTS images leak from somewhere

Sun, 24 Mar 2013

The redesigned 2014 Cadillac CTS will be unveiled this Tuesday on the eve of the New York Auto Show, but as often happens, some images of the car have leaked onto the web a few days early. Previously, the only information we had on the 2014 CTS concerned the all-new twin-turbo V6 engine that will be found underhood, rated at 420 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque.
While none show the new car in its entirety, the images do show much of the front end, particularly the headlights that feature vertical bars of LEDs that start down low as foglights and continue up to the top of the front fenders. They're similar to the lighting design first shown on the XTS and ATS, except the lower portions are much taller.
There are also views of the rear end and one of the taillights, as well as an interior shot of the front passenger door. The latter image has us most intrigued, as it shows some very high end materials being used in the new CTS interior. The low-gloss wood trim, in particular, looks very premium.
