Cadillac Other 2 Door Convertible on 2040-cars
Hayward, California, United States
1947 Cadillac Series 62 2 Door Convertible This is a fully restored 1947 Cadillac Series 62 convertible. The prior owner did a deep restoration in the middle 1990’s. The current owner purchased the car at auction in central California and he has had it garaged since with minimal miles driven. The car has not been driven for 5 years so it needs some service to be as road worthy as it was when this owner purchased it. This is an original California car. Paint is very well done. The leather upholstery is magnificent and the electric convertible top operates smoothly as designed. This fine automobile will take you back in time and is worthy of any drive asked of it by a new owner. It would be a shame to re-engineer any facet of this luxury, low production automobile and the new owner will have the responsibility to be a good curator. Mileage: 11,368 on a working speedometer which is believed to be original. Paint: This car was repainted in the late 1990’s by a professional shop using pride of workmanship and quality products. There is one chip noted on the rear deck lid. A quality detail and polishing is in order. Sheet metal: Sheet metal appears to be original, fit and finish are excellent. All trim is clean and neat and properly fit. All badging is correct. Chrome: All chrome was replated during restoration by a quality shop. It is bright and shiny.Tires and Rims: 2 inch wide sidewalls on the tires fit on standard, period correct rims with correct deep dish, Sombrero wheel covers with correct badging. Mechanical: This car was tuned and ran great during its life with the current owner (19 years). It has not been run for 5 years and will need a complete service to be road worthy.Interior: Beautiful leather pleated seats, all new top with chrome rails, full painted dash with all correct instruments available in the day including am radio and clock, full electric including seats and windows as available for the year’s top of line model; Check the pictures! TITLE: Clean and clear California title on a non-op registration.

Twin-turbo Cadillac CTS coming
Cadillac ATS to go racing in 2015 as CTS.V.R replacement
Thu, 21 Aug 2014Cadillac has been racking up victories with the CTS.V.R in Pirelli World Challenge racing for two model generations now, including recent GT class championships in 2012 and 2013. However, even winning racers eventually have to retire, and it looks like the CTS may be taking a bow at the end of the season. In its place, Caddy is reportedly working on a new racecar based on the ATS Coupe, and it might even get to compete internationally.
According to Racer, Pratt & Miller Engineering is leading the development and is already lapping the ATS racecar in Michigan for testing. It reportedly drops the CTS' V8 in favor of a twin-turbocharged V6 powering the rear wheels. Since this is the same team behind the hugely successful Corvette Racing program and the current CTS.V.R, the latest car appears to be in good hands.
The new model would also adhere to GT3 rules, according to Racer, and that might signal a big change for Cadillac's motorsports program. It means that the ATS could be sold to teams in the numerous series around the world that accept these vehicles. That would broaden the luxury coupe's exposure and put it up against GT3 racecars from premium brands, like Bentley, Porsche and McLaren. If it wins, the change could be a marketing bonanza for the brand.
Lansing builds its millionth Cadillac
Wed, 18 Sep 2013Cadillacs are built at plants across North America. The Escalade is assembled in Texas, the SRX in Mexico and the XTS in Ontario. But the bulk of Cadillac's lineup - or the smaller members of the family, at least - are built in Michigan. And while the upcoming ELR will be built alongside the Chevy Volt at the Detroit/Hamtramck facility (which incidentally opened with the Cadillac Eldorado back in '86), the majority of those Cadillacs built in Michigan are handled by the Lansing Grand River Assembly Plant.
In fact, Lansing Grand River just celebrated its millionth Cadillac built. The landmark millionth vehicle is a new 2014 CTS sedan in Red Obsession Tintcoat. The facility opened in 2001 and has built Cadillacs almost exclusively since then, assembling the CTS and ATS model lines, though in a couple of years it will also handle production of the Chevy Camaro.
