I had originally bought the car to be used as a weekend driver, and to take it to e few local car shows. I just have too many other projects going on right now, and do not have the time to work on it anymore. The car to the best of my knowledge is all original from the ground up, other then any repairs I have made. This is the Biaritz Eldorado, so it was the top of the line Eldorado at the time.
Condition of interior: All of the power lock, windows, and seats work. The radio and power antenna work good, as well as all the speakers. I put a new head liner in, but would need to be finished. The rear side panels over the back seat were damage and could not be save. I found two replacements, but are white, and would have to be died red to match. The leather seats are in great shape, and show no real signs of wear. Everything else in the interior is in great shape with little to no signs of wear.
Condition of exterior: I was told the car was stored all winter long, and was inside when not being driven. So there is just some minor rust in a couple areas, but you need to be up close to find. All the chrome is in great shape, with little to no pitting. The stainless roof is in great shape, and the vinyl part of the roof is in great shape as well. The automatic trunk latch works well also.
Drivability: Just before I put the car into storage, the computer would only allow it to run in limp mode. According to the Cadillac manual I have for the car the computer is not communicating with the distributor. So it may either be the ignition module, or a signal failure on the signal wire. I have just not had the time to make the repair. Before this failure the car ran like a top, and went down the road just as well. I went through and replace every gasket I could on the motor, and put a new timing set in as well. I had the gas tank cleaned and lined, with a new fuel pump installed. I also started to put in a gauge cluster, to show temp, voltage, and oil pressure. As the car only came with indicator lights in the dash.
Things you would have to do: The gauge cluster has to finish being installed. .The bottom of the dash is removed, so I could access the computer to troubleshoot the ignition issue. Other then that you shouldn't have to do anything else with the car.
List of things to go with the car, Cadillac factory repair manual and electrical diagram, 2nd Engine computer. I also have a radiator core support, head light and grill assembly with the grill and headlights to go with the car.

2015 Cadillac Escalade configurator lets you bling it your way
Fri, 21 Mar 2014It's Friday, so there must be a new configurator to play with. While last week we showed you how to build your own McLaren 650S, today's ride is a bit more common. It's the 2015 Cadillac Escalade, a vehicle that you've been able to colorize since the end of last year, and which is sure to be an increasingly common sight on US roads in the coming months.
For those that have played with the build-your-Caddy tool, there's not much new here, aside from the vehicle being configured. The Escalade is available in three trims and two wheelbases, with prices spanning from the SWB, two-wheel-drive Standard, which starts at $72,690, on to the all-wheel-drive, long-wheelbase ESV Premium, which kicks off at $86,790. The options list, meanwhile, isn't hugely extensive. A rear-seat entertainment system and power-retractable side-steps (only available on the Premium trim) are the two notable options, while customers will have their choice of six exterior paints and two to three interior schemes, depending on the trim level.
Hop on over to Cadillac's consumer page and take a look.
Consumer Reports loves the 2014 Cadillac CTS
Mon, 16 Sep 2013Our first drive of the 2014 Cadillac CTS was just published today... we really liked the Vsport version. And Consumer Reports has some even stronger words of praise for the all-new luxury sedan. We already knew that Cadillac had stepped up its game with the third-gen CTS, but CR bluntly states that the sedan drives better than its German luxury counterparts.
While CR shows plenty of love for the new CTS, the outlet still takes issue with some of the in-car technology including the CUE infotainment system - no surprise there. The testers' offer all manner of positive comments where the impressive handling capabilities of the sedan are concerned, with lots of drifting around CR's private test facility in evidence to bear them out. Scroll down to watch the CTS get put through its paces.
Cadillac partners with Saks Fifth Avenue for limited-edition ELR
Fri, 08 Nov 2013There's no softening the blow with this one - this is the limited edition 2014 Cadillac ELR Saks Fifth Avenue Edition, and it costs $89,500, including $995 for destination. The special model, limited to just 100 units, is part of a holiday season collaboration between Cadillac and luxury retailer Saks Fifth Avenue. In addition to the ELR, there will also be a special "Frozen Escalade" window display at the Saks Fifth Avenue flagship store near Rockefeller Center in New York City, which will feature the 2015 Escalade with functioning LED running lamps that, as the automaker says, "appear embedded and breaking through a wall of ice."
But back to that ELR. This Saks edition plug-in hybrid coupe commands a surcharge of $14,500 over the $75,000 base model that over 85-percent of Autoblog readers polled already feel is overpriced. For that extra coin, you get an ELR wearing exclusive (to this car) White Diamond paint matched with either a jet black or light cashmere interior. Buyers will also receive an upgraded 240-volt charging station complete with professional installation, and the cars come with Cadillac's ELR Concierge service - representatives "trained in white-glove customer care" that serve as an additional point of contact beyond the dealership when it comes to topics like like battery care, charging, service scheduling and news updates.
Folks who order the Saks Fifth Avenue ELR are expected to receive their cars in March of next year. Price aside, we're sure it'll look great parked alongside the Neiman Marcus Aston Martin Vanquish Volante in owners' garages. Scroll down for Cadillac's official press blast.
