i am not a dealer. traded my 1964 deville series 62 for this in 1999.
transport cost in mainland US max. $1000.00 is negotiable
HISTORY: this car was bought new in 1964 from salesman for cadillac dealership in south carolina. 2nd owner bought this in 1967 as his dream car and babied it from day 1.
He owned this car until the day he died in 1998. i bought this car from his son in 1999 after his estate was settled. i have titles to prove history.
His son took me to the mechanic that did the routine maintenance on car over many years, the car was put on lift and gone over. There was no issues at all.
I drove the car that summer day all the way to southern illinois without incident except had to change the 60's nylon tires someplace in Tennessee.
His son said this was his fathers pride and joy and was a weekend summer driver to the beach. Currently, i am unable to fully enjoy or give this car the attention
all antique wheels require. It is started monthly at this point and warehouse kept.
i believe there was less than 1300 of this made in 1964. i have yet to see another in ORIGINAL FACTORY TRIPLE BLACK ( ext, int, & top ) with bucket seats and console.
its most likely one of kind, and certainly unmatched in this condition and road worthy condition.
this car is meant to enjoy and drive, it's in the condition to do that safe and reliably.
i am happy to show this car so many can appreciate, but please realize that i can only entertain serious inquires only.

Cadillac, Buick and Chevy decisions impacted by worries abroad
Fri, 05 Jul 2013European Concerns Drive GM, But Beware Of The French Connection
GM's bid to rationalize Europe will impact the products that will be offered domestically.
It seems that Europe is defining the future of General Motors more so than its home North American market. Having axed Saturn, Pontiac and Hummer, GM has done a fairly good job of repositioning its remaining four divisions, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Buick and GMC. Cadillac carries the luxury banner. Chevrolet is aimed at the masses with cars and trucks along with a nod to performance thanks to Camaro and Corvette. Buick bridges the premium gap between Chevy and Cadillac, while GMC offers a hardcore work/upscale proposition.
GM laying off 510 amidst slow Cadillac, small car sales
Wed, 12 Nov 2014General Motors is laying off about 510 workers from two factories beginning in January, and it could be months before the automaker needs some of that latent capacity to come back on line. A combination of poor sales and high dealer inventories are prompting the cutbacks, according to Automotive News.
The largest changes come at GM's Lansing Grand River plant, where the Cadillac ATS and CTS are made. An entire shift of about 350 workers is being laid off, but the automaker hopes to find positions for some of them at other nearby factories. The decision leaves just a single shift building vehicles there. According to Automotive News, the move is partially spurred by Johan de Nysschen's plan to make Cadillac a more exclusive brand.
The lost shift will likely return for production of the next-generation Chevrolet Camaro at the plant, according to the report, but GM isn't saying when that will be. A previous announcement from the Canadian Auto Workers union indicated that the Oshawa, Ontario, factory would lose the coupe in late 2015 or early 2016.
Cadillac's de Nysschen won't budge on raised pricing
Thu, 18 Sep 2014According to new Cadillac boss Johan de Nysschen, it will take between 10 and 15 years to elevate GM's top brand, which was once hailed as "The Standard Of The World," back to prominence in the minds of American customers. And to hear the executive talk of it, the brand is going to have to be willing to see sales falter in the near-term before they recover:
"Either you have to bring your volume aspirations into alignment with reality and accept that you will sell fewer cars... Or you have to drop the price and continue to transact at the prices where you were historically... I think the logical conclusion is that it's better to build off a very solid base in terms of [product] credibility, charge a fair price for the car and realize you have to wait until the volume comes."
In other words, sales will fall before they rise, and the brand has to be okay with that. Notice, too, that de Nysschen speaks of "a fair price" for Cadillac cars and utility vehicles. In this case, "fair" means more than many of the brand's traditional buyers are accustomed to, and roughly in line with the brands and machines Cadillac believes it is competing against. For instance, the newly enlarged 2014 CTS carries a suggested retail price that is over $6,000 higher than it was in 2013, and some trim levels boast an even higher price premium over the models they replace.
